Like Switzerland, its neighbour and partner in the tax haven stakes, Liechtenstein remained neutral in the Second World War. How can you stay neutral when Hitler is conquering Europe and wiping out thirteen million people? Does that statement not just tell you everything you never wanted to know about this revolting country which is still run as a feudal principality? “To abstain is to support the majority”, as Jean-Paul Sartre once expressed it - right in the middle of the Nazi occupation of Paris, now that I come to find a context for the statement. Only speculators, profiteers and black marketeers remain neutral in such a situation, which makes Liechtenstein a formal member of the International Community of Spivs, and worse, a collaborator in war crimes.
Marks For: 0
