The Olympic Games Massacre

Attention is turning to what is being called the Olympic Games massacre, a reference to the killing of Israeli athletes and coaches by Palestinian militants at the 1972 Munich Olympics. Eleven members of the Israeli team died after a hostage standoff at the Olympic village. Discussion of the event resurfaces periodically around the Games, often alongside debate over how the Olympics and Germany have commemorated the victims.

Why now: Renewed interest in the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre, likely tied to current Olympic coverage.
