Ozzie - you could spin that Italy ceased their Axis participation in 1943 when a large chunk denounced germany. but Muss. was still in the Axis. Irish IRA spied for and supported germany during ww2, ... we could go on. A lot of embarrassment for many countries during that period. Movie-wise, this was very entertaining
@ThePope ... Finland participated in the Second World War initially in a defensive war against the Soviet Union, followed by another battle against the Soviet Union acting in concert with Germany and then finally fighting alongside the Allies against Germany.
They failed to mention that Finland was allied with Germany WW2

@ThePope: You failed to mention that it was not an alliance, but a partnership shared over a common enemy -- "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".
