2012-07-27 WARSAW
On July 27th, 2012 we witnessed the opening of the summer Olympic Games in London. This was also the 40th anniversary of the assassination of 11 Israeli Olympic team members during the Munich Olympics in 1972. The Jewish Community of Warsaw joined the Maccabi World Union initiative to commemorate the victims of this terrorist attack. The prayers and the names of the following 11 martyrs were read in two synagogues in Warsaw:David Berger Ze'ev Friedman Yossef Gutfreund Eliezer Halfin Yossef Romano Amitzur Shapira Kehat Shorr Mark Slavin Andre Spitzer Yakov Springer Moshe Weinberg We also recalled with gratitude the sacrifice of German Police Officer Anton Fliegerbauer who gave his life fighting the terrorists. » back |
