If eleven Olympic Officials were killed you can bet they’d drag out the ceremonies every four years with a thirty minute tribute.

If it’s just Jews and their coaches, eh, not that important.

Of course they’re terrified they might offend someone, and after all, who cares if they offend the Israelis or Jews.

For one, I do. On the forty year anniversary, it was the right time to look back on it and talk about the insanity of killing innocent people.

Evidently that’s a pretty touchy lesson in some circles with IQs in the low to mid eighties overnight. And when it comes to the Olympics and this subject, it has been a very long night.

The Massacre in Munich Olympics - 1972

• Arab-Islamic / Nazi crime
  The massacre of 11 Israeli athletes by Arab Muslim 'Palestinians' of Arafat's PLO / 'Black September' - aided by Neo-Nazis.^[1] Mastermind Abu Daoud was driven round Germany by neo-Nazi.^[2]
  
  
• Salame - son of Mufti's aide
  It was executed by (one of the main artchitects) Ali Hassan Salameh, was the son^[3] of Shaykh Hassan Salameh [Salama], a top aide of the infamous Grand Mufti,^[4] Nazi-trained^[5] who worked with the Mufti to poison the wells of Tel-Aviv^[6] (operation Atlas - 1944, that could have killed 250,000 people^[7][8]), and later on, together with Abd el Kader led the "Holy war army,"^[9][10][11] one of the most effective and cruel commandos during the Palestine War of 1947-48.^[12]
  
  
• Abu Jihad - trail of blood
  One of the architects was Abu Jihad [Khalil al-Wazir].^[13] This aide of Y. Arafat was also behind many atrocities,^[14] such as: Abu Jihad masterminded the March 11, 1978 Israeli Coastal Road Massacre - the hijacking two civilian buses, and murder of 38 civilians, including 13 children. He also orchestrated the March 1975 Tel Aviv Hotel Savoy Massacre, murdering seven civilians.^[15]
  
  
• Arafat's blessing
  The butchers were blessed - ahead of the operation - by Arafat and other Arabs: 'Allah protect you.'^{[16] [17][18]}
  
  
• Reaction: Arab media vs world
  While it shocked the world,^[19] Arab newspapers were defending the killers.^[20]
  
  
• Solidarity
  Later, 80,000 gathered, honored the memory of the slain Israelis.^[21]
  
  
• Qaddafi: Jihad & pan-Arabism
  From the fears, expressed at the aftermath: Egypt's union with Libya, whose Head of State, Colonel Gaddafi, is set on jihad, on "holy war" with Israel, raises a threat along with the hopes... with the pan-Arab urgings of Colonel Gaddafi and the inhuman terror of the guerillas...^[22] Qaddafi created a "Jihad Fund" to help finance Palestinian guerrillas and had the Palestinian militants who had been killed at the 1972 Munich Olympics buried as heroes in Tripoli.^[23]
  
  
• Glorification by official "Palestinian" Arabs
  Decades later, mastermind Daoud was glorified by Palstinian Authority's media^{[24] [25]} and praised by its "moderate" leader - Abu Mazen (in 2010).^[26] The "moderate" Abbas, also named -in April 2010- a Ramallah street in (above mentioned) Abu Jihad's name;^[27] sponsored a youth tournament after him;^[28][29] and named a research center after him. ^[30]
