== More institutional antisemitism from Wikipedia ==

Terrorists tortured and murdered eleven athletes. Irrefutable history. Full stop.

None of this "2 were killed and 9 happened to die later whoopsie" minimizing crap.

Revisionist antisemites are torching Wikipedia's credibility in real time.

Edit request, and a question about conflicting info

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? 204.134.245.226 (talk) 18:39, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Torture

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. 2600:1700:88B0:6090:A1E1:8FD7:2029:F8A2 (talk) 18:44, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That is already mentioned in the article, sourced to the NYT, after he was dead. (Hohum @) 19:52, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request: mention controversy around Adidas commemorating the 1972 Munich Olympics


  • 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 article by the Jewish Chronicle about the ongoing controversy. Please see this article by the Jerusalem Post highlighting a past controversy by Bella Hadid.

The story has now been picked up by more mainstream news outlets, such as BBC News. I did not mention specific changes, because I propose something more general - this incident needs to be mentioned in some way, and it would be irresponsible to propose any specific paragraph. Should I propose a specific paragraph? Neutral Editor 645 (talk) 14:49, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Already done. Another editor has added a paragraph to the end of Munich massacre#Effect on the Games. CWenger (^@) 15:18, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
