Kurt Strumpf's haunting image was taken at the 1972 Olympic Games, in Munich, Germany. The Germans wanted a peaceful and joyful games which would outweigh the last 1936 Games in Germany, held when Hitler was in power. To encourage the feeling of harmony and kinship, the security was lax, which later proved to be a mistake. On September 5, eight members of the Palestinian terrorist group Black September raided the Munich Olympic Village building housing ­ Israeli Olympians. The terrorists managed to kill two team members, took nine as their hostages and demanded the release of 234 jailed Palestinians. The standoff lasted 21 hours and it was the first live stream of terrorism, which was watched by approximately 900 million people. During the siege, one of the terrorists walked out into the apartment's balcony - thats when Associated Press photographer Kurt Strumpf captured the moment of the faceless horror, reminding people that the evil never sleeps.
