Munich... a must watch

Munich: The world was watching in 1972 as 11 Israeli athletes were murdered at the Munich Olympics. This is the story of what happened next.
This tagline is not at all capable of showing the true theme of the movie Munich.
I tried to Google about the events mentioned in the movie. Following are some of the best links to read about:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0408306/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_Massacre
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_(film)

This movie reminded me of the Kandhar hijack and following events. How easily India succumbed to the terrorist and agreed to their demand. Could we have done something better that time?
