I may have been a bit on edge and misread your intent. On another thread, I and another poster were dealing with a honest-to-G-d Holocaust revisionist! So to say I was a bit peeved is an understatement. The research I did after your comment, granted it was not scientifically through, but the majority of sites that use this picture do so in regards to Kristallnacht. Only a handful, mostly Eastern European sites (so I couldn't read what was being said), used the picture from the Uprising. Two of those sites said it actually preceded the uprising. So, it well may be from the Warsaw Uprising.
