HOLLYWOOD - Steven Spielberg has been criticized by the only surviving Palestinianterrorist behind the massacre at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, Germany, because
the director failed to consult him over his new movie dramatization of the
tragic events.
Mohammed Daoud was a member of terror group Black September in the early
1970s and was responsible for the deaths of 11 Israelis in Munich's Olympic
Village. He has been on the run ever since.
But Daoud is so angry with Spielberg's supposedly pro-Israel stance in new
film Munich, he contacted news agency Reuters to put forward his side of the
story.
He says, "If someone really wanted to tell the truth about what happened he
should talk to the people involved, people who know the truth. Were I
contacted, I would tell the truth.
"[Israel] carried out vengeance against people who had nothing to do with the
Munich attack, people who were merely politically active or had ties with the
PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization)."
