Never forgive, never forget!
The Rabbi that you see in the picture was about to be shot by the nazis (yemach shmem), but he asked to read the Kaddish prayer for all the Jews, who were still alive next time him, which is forbidden in Jewish Law. You can see the despicable nazi soldiers smiling behind him as he awaits his fate. If you look at his tefillin it has also been desecrated, so they could mock and humiliate the Rabbi further. This is pure evil that you are looking at, there is nothing else to say.I suspect that the caption is incorrect, and that he actually said Kaddish (the prayer for the dead) for the Jews lying next to him who were executed before him.
May God obliterate the memory of the despicable Nazis and their followers.

Never Again, Carl!
I would doubt ANY comment to that picture...
The poor yehudí, ZTUQ"L, YI"D, was OBVIOUSLY FORCED AT GUNPOINT to wear tefillin...and was forced to pray barefoot on stones, which he would have never done unless forced, since it is a lo ta'assé mi-de-oraitha...
What he did was, in this case QIDDUSH HASHEM NETTO!
ANY IDIOT who can comment in view of such photo that Qaddish cannot be said, should do a few years of ta'anith dibbur, forget the false Torah he has learnt (like Rabbi Zerà did: רבי זירא כי סליק לארעא דישראל יתיב מאה תעניתא דלשתכח גמרא בבלאה - תלמוד בבלי, בבא מציעא, פרק ז', דף פה' עמוד א) and start learning SERIOUSLY, starting from TaNa"Kh and including THE WHOLE OF TORAH, which includes Hilkhoth Sanhedrin, Hilkhoth Melakhim, Hilkhoth Milchamà, etc., not just Torath HaGaluth.
HaDar, I don't know if you've noticed but in the famous photo, you can see that the Nazi's pried open the Tefilin Shel Rosh to pieces.
I am such an undisciplined one... Kaddish jumps to the mind and verbalizes itself at the drop of a hat. It even comes to mind when we hear about the street fighting and slaughter in Mexico, even though I have no idea how many Jews are among those being mowed down in the crossfire. People are inappropriate in taking that disaster lightly also. Judaism's top attraction for me: the valuing of the living and the imperative to work for better life on this earth in this time...
