The Olympic Games are based on amateurism. It aims at revival of the festival of ancient peace. However, the influence of occasional international politics, such as a boycott battle of the east and west accompanying the Afghanistan War under the World War of 2 times, the terror attack in the Munich convention, and a cold war, is great. I would like to write the terror attack of the Munich convention in this this time.
The Munich Olympic Games incident is a hostage crisis performed by the group called "Black September" of the Palestine militant group in Munich, former West Germany, on September 5, 1972. It also generates, while Munich Olympic Games is held. Moreover, this incident is known as a murder case by which 11 athletes of Israel were killed. The beginning of this incident began from the member of this group having trespassed upon athletes' dormitories. The guard did not pay attention to this at this time.
The group of the criminal who invaded murdered two persons and made nine persons the hostage. And criminals required that the people from Palestine 234 person imprisoned by Israel should be released. The Israel side refused this demand. Furthermore, since Israel tended to release the hostage by arms, it required preparation of the army of West Germany. However, West Germany refused this demand. Therefore, West Germany negotiated with the criminal group. But, negotiation did not work. And the method planned for hostage rescue is sniping under movement of a bus or at an airport. A criminal group and West Germany became a firefight owing to this sniping. The incident ended by the worst result by all nine hostages and one policeman dying as a result. As for the criminal side, five persons who include a leader among eight persons died. The three remaining persons aimed at the escape. But, three persons were arrested after that.
In Israel, the demonstration which asks for the stop of the Olympic Games also broke out. However, continuation was directed by Chairman IOC's Avery Brundage. The Olympic Games were resumed for the first time in 34 hours. West Germany did not investigate this incident after this. Moreover, Israel caused the terror attack in order to retaliate to this incident. Many people died of the incident.
