...Germans were not even sure who they were. The names they gave-Samer Mohamed Abdulah, 22; Abed Kair Al Dnavy, 21; and Ibrahim Mosoud Badnar, 20-were more than likely false. Their pictures were flashed on television to see if viewers could identify the men and help trace their path to Munich. Black September demanded their release under threat of further atrocities. Reports circulated that police were seeking 14 other Arabs as terrorists...

...late Father Robert Leiber, the German Jesuit who for more than 30 years was the Pope's private secretary and confidant. Leiber's article told of large numbers of Jews who were hidden inside the Vatican during the German occupation of Rome. Waagenaar could only trace one family of eleven who were given safe harbor, and in that case one of the daughters was engaged to a young Catholic who was related to a priest living in Vatican City...
