Munich: The Real Assassins
Recently, I watched the documentary "Munich: The Real Assassins" in Discovery Channel. I wanted to watch Spielberg's "Munich", but couldn't manage to do it. But the documentary was even better.
Shortly, it shows a "black op" of the Mossad (Israeli secret service) to get revenge on the ones who organized and planned the Olympics massacre of 1972, killing them in a way to intimidate other terrorists. How some operations were executed and how it turned into a new killing, having as targets "anyone who could be a threat to Israel" (more a less). Until they killed a wrong target... an innocent. And were caught.
Initial payback feeling turning into paranoic rage... doesn't it sound familiar with another conflict? Pakistan? Iraq?
And it shows that there's no "right side" or "wrong side" in conflicts like those...
It's surely fascinating. One I recommend.
