I was a 10 year old sports fan that summer and I was completely flummoxed by the news. I couldn’t wrap my head around it, and the adults I encountered didn’t seem to understand what was going on either. What a horrible event.
Ankie Spitzer is a bulldog for justice! What a shame that Golda Meir's offer to send help was continually rejected by the Germans who had no experience in dealing with this sort of terrorism at that time. Perhaps it would have turned out differently. Well done documentary.
Thanks for you thoughts. We're thrilled you liked it.
THERE IS SOMETHING MORE UNDERLYING THAN THE GERMANS JUST REJECTING THE HELP OF ISRAEL
What a surprise that the Germans continually rejected Meir’s offers of assistance - I’m shocked, shocked to find there’s gambling going on in here …
The Germans did not want to offend the Arab oil states.
Actually the Germans did, as seen in the seizure of a highjacked plane on the tarmack of Mogadiscio, Somalia, a little after Munich.
In 2021, the 11 finally got their moment of silence at the Opening Ceremony.
I visited in April the Munich Olympic park, which is a very beautiful park and then went over and visited the memorial They should’ve had that memorial put up earlier. The saddest day in Olympic history. 😢
Good job on this. I was just starting ❤10th grade in the USA and remember this well. It was horrifying that it could happen in the Olympic Village and at an event of peace and brotherhood. The world needs to remember. RIP to the eleven and condolences to the families and friends and all of Israel.😢😢
I wasn’t even alive, my parents had just got married literally the year before. I remember watching Seconds from Disaster I believe on it and hearing about David Berger, the American who was killed. My jaw dropped on the ground learning about this. They aren’t asking for much, a moment of silence each Olympics? Not much.
I don’t care if I’ll offend anybody when I say this this is my opinion I think at every Olympic Games there should be a moment of silence and these 11 Israeli Olympians names should be read aloud for all to hear and let’s not forget the German police officer that lost his life as well and if it pisses off the world, too bad, we must not forget
How is that controversial. Every normal human being on the planet would agree with you.
Every insane evil human being on the planet would disagree with you.
Much respect
I absolutely agree 💯
Great idea! I wonder if we should also remember and celebrate the lives of the American Olympic team members who all died in a plane crash, on their way to the Olympics. Just a consideration. I suppose, at the least, I can always take a personal moment, at the Olympics' beginning, to remember and honor all of the above, even if I am not joined by the Olympic collective. Thx for the idea!
@@stephaniek1076 If you're talking about the ice skating team in the early 60s there's plenty of remembrances every winter Olympics as well as books movies etc. anyone who follows the winter games knows about that.
Fascinating documentary. I was a mere toddler when this occurred and do not remember it happening. Not surprised that the “Palestinian perspective” was filled with lies and deflection of guilt. Some things never change.
TRUTH. It's as true today as it was then. Cowards.
I too was only 8 yrs old & watching the excitement of Olympics & diff sports to watch. Then suddenly everything changed & while I was too young understand I knw something horrific happened! 🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙💙💙🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱✡️
The "Palestinian perspective" is the "Muslim perspective": a refusal to allow jews to live in their own country in the middle east. When the Muslims make peace the Palestinians will have their own state. But we all know its going to take centuries for that to happen.
btw, if you and your family had to live the way the Israeli's have since their inception you would be one hundred more times brutal to the palestinians. As you know jews are some of the most caring and sensitive people on the planet. but you probably hate jews hence your statement.
And Isreal have a right to capture their land???? Your shitty mind
The Centennial Park bombing at Atlanta 1996 probably forced his hand, but Samaranch did mention the Munich massacre in his speech at that closing ceremony, and they did a moment of silence to honor victims of both attacks. I remember Bob Costas speaking of the significance of this being the first time the Munich tragedy was even publicly recognized by the IOC.
Agreed.
Excellent document, needs to be seen by everyone thank you !
I love how the 2 palestinian journalists went to make munich 72 a noble and necessary incident then continue to defend their actions after that the documentary revealed details of the horrific actions the terrorists did they no don’t know what to say! Hypocrisy!
I am in tears. I have no words! This is AWFUL! And shows what cold-blooded murderers they are! If the world had known this sooner, then maybe it wouldn't be so difficult for the world to understand what animals they are! YES! Animals! Who else would castrate a man?? Disgusting!
I am glad someone made this documentary. It is a story that needs to be told.
(Although the translation is a little off)
Every time I hear about these Olympics, I am so sad for those who went through something so sad and painful.
And now I won't just be sad. I will be angry! Because not only did it happen, we were lied to about it afterward. The whole world was lied to AFTER the fact, when they think people didn't care anymore. We care! And THEY may have forgotten the details, but I can assure you -- we will not forget!!
@@skontheroad The world knew about this. Perhaps *you* just found out about it, but the rest of the world has known about this since 1972.
@@ns2110theonly The only sympathetic point one can raise in favour of Israel/Israelis is that this happened 5 years after the beginning of military occupation in WEst Bank and Gaza, and that who knew if was willing to end it if it just desired better security. Now, you can tell (and perhaps since day one after the Military Order Number 1, ordering the confiscation of lands in WB) Israel neither wants to two states (because it wants all the land), nor it wants a one state for all (because it’s obsessed with having an ethno-majority state). Of course there’s a Palestinian perspective. They don’t accept living under martial laws! And they will not let Israelis enjoy the fruits of their aggression.

@@skontheroad Read the TALMUD
This should be watched by every human to understand that this has been going on for longer than many would believe. I was not born yet but my Grandpa and father told me about this when I got older and I asked why they were telling me this and they said because it is important that you know EVIL exists in the world and it does not stop.
This EVIL came back on 7 October
The evil has existed ever since the lands were stolen and mutliple massacres are genocides were inflicted upon the palestinian people. The plaestinians did not kill jews in concentration camps..that was the GERMANS.
Evil commited upon by the jews by Germany is taken out on innocent Palestinians.
This Olympic massacre is shameful and deplorable, but are the actions of the Israeli government is absolutely Evil.
@@stephangeffre7781it started in 1947. Saoirse don Phalaistīn 🇵🇸❤️🕊️🇮🇪
@@GrainneScarlett No it started long before that. Three seminal events occurred leading to the conflict: 1) The Roman Emperor Hadrian resolved to stamp the Jews and their religion out of existence. He sold all Jewish prisoners into slavery, forbade the teaching of the Torah. He renamed the province Syria-Palaestina, and changed Jerusalem’s name to Aelia Capitolina. Synagogues were replaced with Roman temples and Jews were persecuted and driven off the land. 2) Arab Muslims conquered the land that is Israel in the 7th century during the Islamic Rashidun caliphate Umar (634-644). After the Rashidun caliphate Jews and Christians were ruled by Arab Muslims until the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire (1517-1917). 3) The Jewish people claimed statehood in 1948 and defended themselves against the Palestinian militia and surrounding Arab countries armies reclaiming their ancestral homeland after 1,400 years.
@@GrainneScarlettyou are brainwashed. Israelis would live in peace with anyone who would be peaceful. Islam wants entire global dominance and will never stop. It is not about freedom… no Islamist is allowed freedom- they even kill their own. Crimes against women & children. If you leave Islam you signed your own death warrant.
DragQueens were being introduced in Paris Olympics when it's these 11 that needed time in the opening ceremony.
I had just moved to the Munich area the Summer of 1972 with my family as my Dad was stationed there. For the first time, German TV had been showing the Games all day long. We did not have tickets to the Games but we were near the Olympia Park. When the terrorist attacked occurred, it was horrible. I will never ever forget watching all the news reports with the pictures of the burnt out helicopters 🥺🥺💔😥🙏Sadly the Germans were completely unprepared as they did not expect and attack. Also, at the time, the Germans did not have a Delta Force or SAS SWAT team. After this attack the Germans developed a top SWAT team over the next 5 years and in fact trained with the IDF.
He called them Palestinian fighters instead of terrorists, shame
17:50.. yeah right….
Exactly! Why I also refuse to stand with Palestine and will always for eternity stand with Israel God’s Chosen People!! Regardless of what anyone says and their brainwashed opinions.
Lying mfer. That’s why they thought they would get away with Oct 7, most people weren’t around to remember this.
The graffic images are necessary, as sickening and painful as they are. But they prove an important point- these are never mere "acts of resistance, we had no choice!". This is fueled by unfathomable hate. Very eerie resemblance to other images I've seen from the October 7th attacks. Castration included.

NEVER FORGET AND NEVER FORGIVE!!!!!
St Simon of Trent
Salute to the victims' family waiting...and also the Memorial stand being built at the right place....forgave isa powerful life skill
If there is no accountability, do not forgive. Know thy enemy but do not embrace them!
Brilliant documentary thank you
The Olympic opening ceremony can blaspheme Christ but can't observe one minute of silence for 11 lives brutally ended...what an upside down world we live in.
They didn’t blaspheme anyone. The motif was based on a painting of a Greek bacchanal.
Do your own research instead of letting some preacher with an agenda tell you what to think.
I was a teenager. This was a huge deal.
I didn’t know that they didn’t really have a moment of silence.
The result is always the same. Innocents suffer and today it is still the same
2012, they did an honor of silence.
Everyone should watch this documentary
I remember clearly this as a Jewish kid growing up in Morocco. This terrorist attack destroyed my dreams of a peaceful world long before 9/11 . I never knew that they castrated Mr Romano. A reminder of October 7 ! Some things never changed . Long live Israel. 🇮🇱
Judeus sempre a se fazer de vítimas, soldados israelenses também atira em crianças palestinos da faixa de gaza.
How could it have not been reported at the time or for decades later that the savages had castrated Romano? This was always horrible enough how it was reported. That detail takes it to a new level.
And people in 2024 think “oh no, they would never have raped women on October 7th, that’s not their style, they are a peaceful people”
long live Israel
I watched about half of this documentary..until they began the part about "from the Palestinian perspective." At this point, I stopped watching, and gave it a thumbs down. Under NO circumstances could what they did be considered reasonable or honorable or appropriate.
As a Jew I knew about the horrific story but now I see it close what a nightmare poor Olympic champions 😢😢😢😢😢😢

😂😂😂😂😂😂
There is NO "Palestinian perspective" that justifies what happened. That premise is flawed, distorted, and perverted.
What’s the perspective?
Explain please , please justify this . I’m not being condescending or not am I baiting you . Please explain ….
@@owenfreed700 they justify harming and murdering Israelis and Jews because they believe they “ took their land”.
@@owenfreed700 That's the problem, because even they can't agree. Most Palestinians acknowledge that a two-state solution (to the West Bank) is the best they can hope for, but most will also only accept a one-state solution without Israel. So they fight on with no solution and no idea how to reach one.
@@tomscott4438 well said, I appreciate your response. It’s just horrible to hear about and it’s horrible to see so many innocent people dying.
and we wonder why this conflict has gone nowhere but more killing on both sides.......
I remember when i was a kid watching this on the news saying to my parents those cops are stupid because if i can see and understand as a kid surely the hostage takers could see it to.
Germany was not prepared to terror attacks at that time. No special unit, which was founded after that attack.
They should have given the leadership to the Mossad.
I was 10, but I remember the complete shocked white face of my father telling to my mother: They are all dead.
I didn't got the whole tragedy at that age, but father's face I remember for ever.
They were not Americans who helped the Palestinian terrorists over the fence at the Olympic village. Rather, they were Canadian athletes who unwittingly helped the Palestinian terrorists over the fence.
I was 7 and excited to watch the Olympics. This was my introduction to the “Palestinian cause”. I didn’t know it then, but it made a lifelong impression and not a favorable one.
Failed exercise by GSG9
This led to the founding of GSG9, which didn’t exist at the time.
The rescue was attempted by the Munich police department. GSG9 didn’t exist yet; this event led to the founding of GSG9.
So they made their names known by being terrorists. And they are trying to justify it. Absolute cowards.
German snipers were police who did not shoot properly. The boeing plane was abandoned by german officer because they thought they might be killed. So the terrorists found out the ploy. Germans certainly did not know how to handle the situation.
And they still fight today. Do they even know why?
People that live surrounded by hatred, expected to give and give and give until they exist no more.

1948: Israel and Palestine had been in conflict for years with no clear end in sight.
1972: Israel and Palestine had been in conflict for years with no clear end in sight.
2048: Israel and Palestine had been in conflict for years with no clear end in sight.
2072: Israel and Palestine had been in conflict for years with no clear end in sight.

28:28 "Subconsciously, she may have meant what she said the first time."
Killing was the last thing they could do. And they did it. It was the first thing they wanted to do. Come on.
Didn’t Israel win the 12 day war so the land belongs to them as the terms of the treaty, w/a small section for Palestine.
