I think that’s a Stieglitz photo of Goebbels, but I don’t think I’m imagining the evil I see in that man’s face. You can see it in other photos of him.

You know he murdered his 6 children.

Yes he and his wife murdered their children right after AH and EH committed suicide. Like der Fuehrer he asked that their bodies be burned. Didn’t do the job though as they were identified by the Russkies.
