So, Americans aren't the only people armed to the teeth.

Correct, Swiss people then as now can own guns.

Maybe Yanks aren't as stupid as Bluemoon thinks. Those guns saved the Swiss.
We all need to get armed to save us from the Chinese and Russians, imagine @Blue Mist with an AK-47
Who would he shoot first ?

Too busy hiding all the stuff stolen from the Jewish people in their vaults.

Neutral my arse.

Feel like if a genocidal regime is melting down the gold teeth of its victims and putting that gold in your banks then your claims of neutrality are somewhat discredited. It's not even as though they didn't know about this either.

They also turned away Jewish people fleeing in record numbers.

I vaguely recall Swiss Banks reaching a settlement figure a few years back, something like £10bn with Israel (without prejudice, of course)...

Goering and Bormann loved a stolen painting and those Swiss banks have blood money all over their hands.

The only country I have ever visited where many of the people I encountered felt their shit smelt so sweet, it even made the French seem less arrogant.

And that's from someone who idolises Federer!!

Nope, just the Swiss don’t all shoot each other with them.
