And if you believe that I believe the French should have resisted the Allied invasion in '44, you are entirely (and, I think, deliberately) missing my point, Greg. ;-)

Mind you, there were a very small number of French nationals (as well as Dutch, Norwegian, Danish, Czech, and other nationals in Nazi-invaded lands) who joined the SS and helped the Germans fight the Allies during WWII. You can look it up in the histories of the SS formations. They were nonconformists of their time, I suppose, and it proves that every side can find some people who will back it during a war, even among the invaded.

No, Greg, I do not think the French should have resisted a relief force sent into their country to throw out an already present foreign invader. Hardly. Why would I think that? Why would anyone?

Do not, in attempting to win an argument, stoop to absurd reasoning...it's an unworthy debating technique.
