Terrorism and counterterrorism became a major "growth industry" in the 1970s, with a sharp increase in terrorist attacks and the creation of specialized government agencies to combat them. This decade saw high-profile incidents like the kidnapping of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics and the hijacking of a Lufthansa plane by Palestinian militants in 1977, as well as the establishment of organizations like Israel's Mossad and the United States' Delta Force to handle such threats.
