>As I said to ed, I stand corrected in the canadian case.
Don't know the defacto rules here, when you're wrong, just use profanity. LOL!
>That is correct. As we did stay neutral in WWI. Since we did not suffer from WWI the dutch governement tried to do the same trick for WWII. Hitler OTOH had other plans with Holland: Mainly as a stepping bridge towards Brittain.
In hindsight it doesn't seem to make sense, but back then (as you say) who could have imagined the scale of want Hitler wanted.
>But you did not answer the question I asked you. Why do you ask whether Canada and the US should have liberated the Netherlands? It seems a silly question to me.
Peter had said "I'm not an advocate of military action, at this moment.". Just wanted to see if he was ever an advocate of military action. Some people say that wars don't solve anything... though it seems WWII did.
