Washington post is NOT a relevant source of information. Whole paragraph about his death is based on some article written by sensationalistic journalist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.169.86.158 (talk) 16:44, 14 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

The sentence 'All three men had made Israel's Operation Wrath of God target list for their participation in the massacre of eleven members of the 1972 Israeli Olympic team in Munich' is unreferenced and possibly false, particularly with regard to Kamal Nasser, and should be deleted. 91.125.162.10 (talk) 23:23, 16 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

You are right: such a serious charge need proper WP:RS, which wasn't there. (I have no idea if he was involved or not, but the case of the Lillehammer affair showed that the Israeli intel wasn't always brilliant, to put it diplomatically). At most we can say that Israel alleged he was part Munich planning, but at the moment not even that is in the sources. Removed. Huldra (talk) 23:50, 16 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Seriously, User:יניב הורון, whatever gave you the idea to insert this, unsourced?? Did you think you can say anything about a dead Palestinian, as long as you state it is alleged....without any source? Please revert, Huldra (talk) 20:38, 17 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Munich massacre

edit

Even though it is easy to find sources saying that Kamal Nasser was directly involved in the Munich massacre, I'm suspicious. For example this book by a well-known Israeli historian says that the assassination "seems to have little connection to Munich". Or this book which lists the three Fatah leaders killed and says that two them (the two other than Nasser) were suspected of providing support for the Munich massacre. The same formula which pointedly excludes Nasser from the involvement in Munich attributed to the other two appears in "Israel's Secret Wars" (Black and Morris, p275).
