Israeli athelete pays special honor to 1972 terror victims
Jewish gymnast Aly Raisman, who won gold at the London Olympics for her floor routine, has revealed that she chose the tune to the routine in honor of the Israelis murdered at the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich.Like the Italian entrants, she too has performed a good deed.
Raisman did her routine to the strains of Hava Nagila.
She expressed sympathy with the loved ones of those killed in the 1972 attack, saying, “I can only imagine how painful it must be for the families and close personal friends of the victims.”
Update: it's also worth noting that French entrant Fabien Gilot's provided his own form of solidarity with a Hebrew language tattoo (Hat tip: Diana West), and that too calls for congratulations.
