実行犯3名のうち唯一生存した岡本公三は、イスラエルの裁判で1972年6月に終身刑となり収監された。岡本は最終意見陳述で、赤軍派の世界同時革命理論や革命戦争の過程における殺戮破壊の不可避性についてのべ、さらに「われわれ三人は死んだあと、オリオンの三つ星になろうと考えていた。殺した人間も何人か星になったと思う。世界戦争(革命戦)でいろんな星がふえると思う。しかし、同じ天上で輝くと思えば心もやすまる」と述べた[29]。弁護人が岡本に犠牲者に対して「アイ・アム・ソーリー(I am sorry)」と言えないのかと聞くと、岡本は黙って首を振った[29]。庄司宏弁護士は、岡本が「済まなかった」と言えなかったことに、本件に対する岡本の苦悩や自責の念が出ているとし、法廷において岡本は、市民殺害に対して終始一貫して、「自分を殺せ」と叫んでいたとしか考えられないと述べている[29]。

"Beyond legal steps, Puerto Rico immortalized the Lod Airport Massacre into the public memory. In 2006 the Puerto Rican government passed a law declaring May 30th as the annual “Remembrance Day for the Massacre of Lod.” .... The reason for establishing the memorial day was that the event, which had a huge impact on Puerto Rican society, had almost disappeared from collective memory. The law stresses the importance of remembering the event to illustrate to future generations that “violence against innocents is morally abhorrent,” to remember the victims and to honor the survivors."
