=Plan of the Investigation (100-150 Words) Tips]= This study will search for answers to the question ‘How useful is the film “Munich” to the historian studying the methods of Palestinian activists in the 1970s?’ I have chosen this question because I have always been interested in watching films from a young age. Also I have been interested in studying the Middle East in class, firstly in year 9 and again in year 12 and 13. To understand what really happened in the Munich Olympics and what was over exaggerated by film, I have carefully selected sources to show comparisons and contrasts between the film “and what has been published. These sources are “Striking Back: The 1972 Munich Olympics Massacre and Israel's Deadly Response” by Aaron J. Klein and “vengeance” the book that influenced the film by George Jonas, and the film by Steven Spielberg. I have also selected various websites, news articles and film reviews linked with this event.
