Ankie's words are a refreshing change, and of course, she is right.

For an engaging, disturbing, and authoritative documentary about the slaughter of 11 Israeli atheletes at Munich's 1972 Olympics, see "One Day in September."

German bungling? Objectively speaking, it could only have been complicity. Thanks for this post.

Talk about blaming the victims! How about "Palistinian Terrorist Killers, Israeli victims ... 25 years of Terror, Murder and Hatred brought to you by Arafat and the PLO" The Pali-Nazis had already killed two athletes before the German police ever got involved. 1972 was a long time ago and police forces were not trained and equiped to deal with this kind of stuff. Even now, with lots of experience and training hostage standoffs often end in death. It's not the police, it's the terrorists. Duh !

She also assailed the International Olympic Committee, which has refused to commemorate the victims out of fears of an Arab boycott of the games.

This speaks volumes. Ofcourse euroes/liberals don't care.

Yes, indeed. I have not only seen the film (three times), I own the DVD.

I would also recommend the companion book of the same title by Simon Reeve, now available as a trade paperback.

And by the way, Andre and Ankie's last name is Spitzer.
