Why is "terrorists" in quotations? They murdered eleven people. At the Olympics, the one place where people are to put their national differences aside and compete. They were nothing but terrorists.

The example they cited was when some one of the targets sent his daughter out and the Mossad prepared to move in the film skipped over the fact the Palestinian was waiting for a call from his mistress, a fact not neglected in the book. Also, Munich apparently fails to portray any Palestinian victims in a slightly negative light.
That was what was irritating -- not that they didn't mention that one of the terrorists had a mistress, but they portrayed the Palestinian terrorists as "victims" and Israel as the aggressor.

I dislike it when one side is demonized, especially in a film based on true events.
One side demonized themselves. The movie just reversed it.
