{{Edit extended-protected|Munich massacre|answered=yes}}
Terrorists tortured and murdered eleven athletes. Irrefutable history. Full stop.

== the terrorists did not demand the release of Andreas Baader of RAF in their communiqué ==
None of this "2 were killed and 9 happened to die later whoopsie" minimizing crap.


As shown by Anna Greithanner, Dominik Aufleger and Robert Wolff in 2022 when they found a copy of the original communiqué in the Bavarian State Archives the terrorists of Black September did not demand the release of Andreas Baader but only of Ulrike Meinhof. Their article as showed that the formerly published number of to be released prisoners of about 236 was wrong since the list includes the names of 328.
Revisionist antisemites are torching Wikipedia's credibility in real time.
Thus the article should correct this mistake by removing Andreas Baader and including a section about common micsonceptions regarding the demands of Black September.

In "Surviving Black September members," under "Abu Daoud", it should be clarified that according to the source, the PLO (etc.) were protesting Daoud's arrest--currently it looks like they were protesting France sending him to Algeria before Germany could get him. I have already corrected this on Daoud's article itself, which had the same text. Additionally, here it is implied that France was trying to get him off their hands before Germany could get the correct paperwork in order, but above in the final paragraph of "Alleged German Cover-up", the article states that the Barvarian government intentionally did not act after France asked whether they intended to extradite. Which of these is true? [[Special:Contributions/204.134.245.226|204.134.245.226]] ([[User talk:204.134.245.226|talk]]) 18:39, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

This article is light on the mention of torture, which is a critical detail about such an event. The NYT article that mentions beatings also says that one of the victims was castrated alive.

"Shortly before 5:00 am, the Munich police, the organizing committee, and paramedics were alerted. Ambulances arrived, and the blood-soaked Weinberg that the terrorists had thrown in front of the apartment building entrance (Connollystraße 31), who could not be saved, was recovered."

* '''What I think should be changed''': Add a section to the article, to discuss the longer-term legacy. Within that, mention the ongoing controversy around Adidas commemorating the 1972 Munich Olympic Games - the company chose to do this via launching a new shoe, featuring Bella Hadid as a model. This is causing significant controversy within the Israeli and Jewish communities, due to Hadid's past controversies on her stance on Hamas and Palestinian political violence in general.
* '''Why it should be changed''': The Munich Massacre has a long legacy, now with commemoration of the Munich Olympics occuring via Adidas' new shoe in 2024. Adidas is a household name in the fashion space and hence their actions and controversies hold significance. The controversy around Adidas' collaboration with a famous yet controversial model, who is perceived by some in the Jewish and Israeli communities as having problematic stances on Palestinian political violence, is an important point to record in the history of the legacy/commemoration of the Munich Massacre. It also ties into the wider discussion around the ongoing Israel-Hamas War.
* '''References supporting the possible change (format using the "cite" button)''': Please see this [https://www.thejc.com/news/adidas-criticised-for-collab-with-bella-hadid-on-1972-olympics-shoe-m052zjuz article by the Jewish Chronicle] about the ongoing controversy. Please see this [https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-806030 article by the Jerusalem Post] highlighting a past controversy by Bella Hadid.
