wtf There's actually a story behind this? Link? I need to read up on this. And tbh if the victim forgave someone that does forgive that person. It doesn't make the action itself any less heinous if that's what you mean but continuing to be angry at the person and not forgive when the victims themselves forgave them is just spiteful.
Every iconic pic of WW2 has probably been investigated and scrutinized for their backstory by history buffs and nerds, like the flag raising on Iwo-jima.
