I was 11 years old when this happened! It was a shock to me to learn what human depravity and evil is capable of!
These Arab terrorists and murderers brutally violated the spirit of the Olympic Games for all the world to see:
"... Each Panhellenic festival was marked by a truce, or ekecheiria, which literally means “holding of hands.” Inscribed on a bronze diskos displayed at Olympia, the truce not only allowed athletes and fans to travel safely, but also provided a common basis for peace among the Greeks. ..." (Source)
Nothing could have justified the acts of these Arab psychopaths and fanatics! It was the most stupidest thing they could do in front of running cameras and a world audience! How much did this attack harm their cause?
Then, on 9/11/2001 followed the attack on the World Trade Center towers in Manhattan.
