One thing I don't get about Holocaust is that why would

>>1952436
because Germans liked to keep everything in archives?

They were proud of what they were doing, so they took pictures.

>>1952452
Weren't they thinking about what would happen if this got leaked to the public of the rest of the world?

>>1952436
Everyone love photo from his travel in foreign land.

oh my sweet millennial summer child

>>1952467
I'm just genuinely asking.
Surely photos of them killing innocent women and children (like the pic in OP) wouldn't help them to settle peace with US or Britain.

>>1952479
It's like when you watch gangland on history channel and all these members of the ms13 pose with their drugs, guns, and cash.
People tend to brag when they think they won't get caught.
Also back the people didn't give a fuck. Look at all the photos the japs took.
Actually people don't give a fuck now either.

>>1952464
They literally sent pics to their families. They wrote letters. They were proud of what they are doing.

Because most of them thought they were going to win and weren't considering any possible retribution

>>1952436
OPs picture is cropped, the soldiers are actually threatening a group to the right and guarding the people in the middle

>>1952516
It's not like every massacre was filmed just because you found one photo

>>1952436
Human nature (albeit a sick one)

Americans too took pictures when they tortured Iraqi prisoners and publications of these pics had greater impact than the pics of holocaust.

>One thing I don't get about Holocaust is that why would Germans take pictures of them killing jews?

They didn't. We actually have very little photographic evidence of the Holocaust produced by the Germans themselves. The biggest one I can recall is picture related.

>>1952436
do you think they would have done it if they didn't think it was Morally Right

>>1952536
Prove it. Your "original" image doesn't exist.

>>1952556
This. Most pictures are the pictures of bodies. It's the main reason why revisionists claim that everything was faked by the Soviets.

>>1952464
This wasn't the fucking 2010s

>>1952556
Is that Benito Cucumbersnatch?

>>1952486
The amount of fucks the japs give about what they did during ww2 could fill a thimble

These are yugo soldiers tho

>>1952613
>no helmet
>no German
kek, that's the dumbest thing I've ever read. Where is the original photo you were talking about? Yours is even more cropped.

Seriously, do you also believe that Americans never landed on Moon because of "wrong" shadows?

>>1952627
How do you know? Anyway, so which revisionist version is the correct one? Yugo soldiers killing civilians or German soldiers defending poor Jews in Ukraine?

>>1952628
I didnt make that, I dont agree with the helmet assumption either

>>1952632
All those points are rather silly.

>The photograph was originally sent from the Eastern Front to Nazi Germany, but intercepted at the Warsaw post office by members of the Polish resistance, the Home Army,[9] for Jerzy Tomaszewski who documented Nazi war crimes for the Polish government-in-exile.[14][15] On the reverse, it was inscribed: "Ukraine 1942 - Judenaktion in Iwangorod" (English: Ukraine 1942 - Jewish operation in Ivanhorod).
Of course we can argue that it was forged by the Poles or Soviets or whatever but there is no proof of this.

>>1952627
>yugo
Or Ukrainians.

I was actually shitposting. Like this particular photo mattered much. It happened.
As to the original question why they took pictures, probably they didnt think of it as documentation of war crimes
