- The larger fact that Serdar ignores is that there were military
- collaborators in nearly every european country.
- I mean even Belgium had the Rexists who eventually formed the
- Walloon legion within the SS. Non-german facist groups who aided the
- Germans usually did so with the expectation of German favors after the
- war to help them carry out their own agendas. The leadership of these
- organizations usually wanted favors from the germans after the war
- in carrying out their national agendas.....they recruited many people
- of various beliefs via the "crusade against asiatic communism" arguement
- or (in the east) based on playing to the nationalist asperations of peoples
- under the rule of the Russians (like the Armenians).
