The Zocalo incident happened 10 days before the Olympics and were a response to a nationwide student movement that was not related to the Olympics. Students had gathered at the Square to hear what their next move in their ongoing opposition to the government would be.

The only time the word "Olympics" appears in the NPR report is when it says that the massacre occurred ten days before the Olympics started.

I have no problem commemorating the student's deaths which was a vile ugly tragedy perpetrated by the Mexican government but you must admit that eleven Israeli Olympic athletes killed by terrorists because they were Israelis and because killing them at the Olympics would automatically get worldwide TV coverage - is a completely different event as far as publicly remembering them at the Olympics is concerned.
