At present such historical photos would be impossible to fake since the AI can't get uniform or weapon details right that an expert would know about.

Ok. I was just pointing out that both the Poles and the Nazis emphasized that distinction.

Polish-Jewish defenders, then. Their nationality was Polish.

Good overall intellectual question but curious why, out of any myriad number of reddit posts with pictures and videos, that this specific set of photos are the ones that made you raise the question of veracity?

They are physical negatives from the 1940s

I am not asking this to discredit the images or challenge their veracity but looking at them after spending a few weeks playing around with AI image generators…how do we know nowadays if something is a real “historic” image?

I think it was mostly Jews who fought in the Warsaw ghetto uprising.

So there is no way to see the other 17 photos unless we go to the museum exhibit?

Shows both the tenacity of the Polish defenders and how nightmarish urban combat is

They held out longer than some German invaded countries. Really impressive

Hmmm it makes sense in the field of academia.

The museum's historians said that the value of Grzywaczewski's pictures lies in their being the only known images from the ghetto uprising that were not taken by the German forces, and which therefore were not shot with the intention of serving Nazi propaganda.

Why don’t Semitic people eat pork?
I know Jews don’t eat pork because of religion, but I’m guessing that the basis of the religion could be from culture (because Muslims also follow the no-pork). Did they get sick commonly at the time? I read that getting parasites like Trichinellosis was a thing back then but so could have happened with chickens and salmonella, they could have also prohibited chicken.
