This is not Warsaw Ghetto Uprising reenactment, but Warsaw Uprising reenactment. Two different things, two different uprisings, same devastating effect on the people and the city. Warsaw Ghetto Uprising was in 1943, Warsaw Uprising was in 1944.

Yes, but an important thing to note is that the Jews who participated in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising had a higher rate of survival than those who went along. So, yes, the effects were devastating...the circumstances were devastating...But fighting back was actually safer than not fighting back...and this incident is a very powerful example of that.
