Posted by SLRT on Wed Jul 25 14:59:19 2012, in response to If any other country had their athletes killed at the Munich Olympics 40 yrs ago..., posted by Jeff Rosen on Wed Jul 25 14:04:44 2012. Everyone remembers Jesse Owens upsetting Der Fuehrer at the 1936 Munchen Olympics, but less well-known was Hitler's banning of Jewish Athletes then, and the U.S. pulling the two Jewish U.S. sprinters who were ready to compete.Face it, Jews are just not fashionable in Europe, in 1936, or 1972, or 2012.
