Palestinian Authority Chairman Abu Mazen said yesterday (Tuesday) that he refused to apologize for the massacre of the athletes in Munich, and said in response that Israel had committed "50 holocausts" against the Palestinians.
Abu Mazen was asked during a press conference with German Chancellor Olaf, whether he wished to apologize for the massacre of the athletes at the Olympics Michene in 1972. This, because the murder was carried out by Palestinian terrorists. In response, the chairman of the Palestinian Authority said that Israel had committed 50 massacres against Palestinians, and then added that Israel had committed "50 holocausts" against the Palestinians.
