Cleopatra Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 I only posted the picture as a bit of humour, not to set off WW3 :lol: Could the swiss flag be the cause of WW3? Isn't Switerland a neutral country. I believe it's been 100's of years since Switerland was involved in any war. 1847 was when when Switerland was last involved in a war.

Bazj Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 I often wondered about neutrality in WW2.... How did they get away with it? Adolf was intent on world domination and just because Switzerland and Spain et al decided they didn't want to take part surely wouldn't have made Hitler think "OK... no worries,....." Maybe if Poland had said they were neutral in 1938, none of it would have happend!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Spain and Portugal were facist dictatorships already, and the Swiss banks were a usefull source of loans for Adolf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Adolf could have quite easily taken Switzerland and all of their money and as Adolf did not suffer fools lightly (as was the case with Mussolini) just because Spain and Portugal were already Facist led countries would have probably meant nothing as Hitler would have wanted to have been in control. No doubt had we not won the war over Germany; he would have turned his sights and armies on them next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

algy Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 I did? I'm sure it was you Cleo, I had posted an genuine photo of me on holiday and you and Dizz were pulling my leg saying it was not me and one of you posted a photo of a thin wrinkled chap riding a moped, not sure but I think all he was wearing was a sombrero, I'm sure it was you that posted it or I suppose it may have been the 'Dizzy' one.

observer Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Baz, Switzerland could mobilise an extremely large Army in an emergency; and with the Wehrmacht bleeding to death on the eastern front, I'm sure invading these neutrals was the last thing on their mind.

Dizzy Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 I don't remember a sombrero one Algy and can't find the moped one but there was this one of you on here;) What was the significance of the sports relief ball as I can't remember now. Anyway sorry Obs... what were you saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway sorry Obs... what were you saying I don't think there was any significance, and yes that was the one, I think you were just attempting to be downright rude to me, and after careful consideration I am now considering taking legal advice against you. Why I thought he was on a scooter goodness knows, perhaps the crash helmet had something to do with it. And if you see this Florence, I apologise for blaming you as for once you are not implicated. :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
