There are 195 countries

"Iceland, invaded in 1940 by the British after the neutral nation refused to enter the war on the Allies side. The invasion force, of 745 marines, met with strong protest from the Iceland government, but no resistance."

The invasion was to prevent the Germans using the deep fjords for their U-boats. And Iceland refused to enter the war with the allies because there was quite a strong German sentiment at the time because of trading links.

It's quite interesting that there are still visible signs of large graffiti/vandalism carved into the moss on the sides of some mountains by the troops...

One reads 'CFC' !

Thailand No...

Iran yes

Your right. But I don't think Iran has ever been conquered

Iran invaded August 1941.

Subsequently, National Oil Company controlled by Western powers, Iran not allowed to have any directors, and no right to audit the accounts. It was attempts by the democratically elected Prime Minister to audit the accounts that led to the coup overthrowing the government.

Government overthrown by US and UK sponsored coup in 1953.

Puppet government installed.

Iran invaded August 1941.

By the British & Russians I believe. Not there very was we? Never conquered.

Doesn't exist any more, been superceded.

Wrong again.

Is that another false claim made by fillyboy?

Probably.

It's an RWR trait. You only have to look at the garbage ryland and andy11 churn out.

 

[fillyboy]

The Anglo-Portuguese Treaty of 1373 was signed on 16 June 1373

Doesn't exist any more, been superceded.

Wrong again.

I naturally assumed that as the Anglo Irish treaty according to many on here no longer has any standing because it's been 'trumped' by EU law or treaties, the same would apply to other treaties.

 

[JohnD]

assumed

Made up.

 

[fillyboy]

So another case of what you want to believe, not what is actually correct?

So you're stating categorically that the Anglo Irish treaty has no legal standing because it's trumped by EU law, but the Portugese treaty has full legal standing despite the fact they are members of the EU.
Interesting.
How do you arrive at this legal conclusion?

 

[noseall]

Have I said that/

Just another RWR trait.
Mottie assumed (on another thread) that because I questioned some made up benefits statistics it automatically meant that I seem to think there are no benefit scroungers. Bizarre.

You have to wonder about RWR logic.

 

[Ryler]

Keep repeating it, then it has to be true.

Typical remoaners logic.
