Stand aside Justin Rowlatt. The BBC has a new climate doom-monger in chief. With his tall tales of sea levels rising "several metres or more", Mark Poynting means to keep the population fully alarmed, says Chris Morrison.

Mohammed Oudeh (Abu Daoud) RIP‏

category international | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Monday July 05, 2010 14:16author by Jerry Cornelius Report this post to the editors

Abu Daoud is dead but his memory lives on in the struggle for a free Palestine.

The mastermind behind the 1972 Munich Olympics attacjk in which 11 Israeli athletes (who were IDF Reservists) were killed, has died, his daughter and Palestinian officials say. Mohammed Oudeh died of kidney failure a day after he was taken to hospital in Syria, his daughter said. He was 73.

Oudeh - also known under his guerrilla name Abu Daoud - did not directly take part in the attack. He later said he had no regrets because he considered the athletes, as military reservists, to be legitimate targets.

In a 2006 interview with AP, Oudeh said the Munich attacks were a turning point for Palestinians. He rejected the term "terrorists" to describe Palestinian fighters, and said: "Before Munich, nobody had the slightest idea about Palestine."

The high-profile and audacious Munich attack, which unfolded live on television, shocked the world. In the following years, Israel murdered a number of top Palestinian officials whom it believed were involved in the massacre.
