Hundred Proof History Ep. 4 - Munich 1972: Hot. German. Amateurs.
On September 5, 1972, eight Palestinian terrorists stormed the Olympic Village apartments of the Israeli delegation and took 11 members of the Israeli team hostage. If you enjoy well organized counter-terrorism efforts like something you'd read in a Jack Ryan novel, then this story isn't for you. If you like being outraged at sheer incompetence and mind boggling indifference, then let Greg and Chris tell you all about the West German efforts to rescue the 11 Israeli hostages. Spoiler alert: It does not go well. Be sure to grab a drink for this one, you're gonna need it!
