    That’s odd, because that’s the photo I immediately think of when the massacre is brought up. I thought it was really well-known.

          Except that this photo is way more zoomed in. A photograph of a house from above is not the same as a photograph of earth from space, even though the angle might be the same.

            Didn’t say the photo was the same, only said the angle is almost identical, which it is.

              Even so, t’s off by at least some 45°. This picture was taken from way higher up (compare the position of the white lights in the pictures) and more to the left (see the ratio of the tanks side and front).

                45° is a huge exaggeration. Yes, slightly higher up and slightly to the left, an angle that’s almost identical to the one OP posted, as I’ve been saying.
