Or should I say "The Real Munich"
Spielberg's film is a little old now but it's impact on me and others is ongoing. Did anyone find the movie's depiction of terror (shooting bound up athletes at point blank range) a little frightening?
Watch this excellent documentary on the real Operation Bayonet, with interviews with the actual Mossad and Spec Ops officers who carried out the assassinations:

I still remember the day when Arafat announced that the PLO would never use terror again. Since that day, at least in the western media, it seems as though the Palestinians seem to have gone up the ladder of credibility. Maybe there was a good reason as to why he said that, after you watch this documentary it seems to be clear why.
