October 24, 1940




At the Montoire interview, Philippe Pétain and Adolf Hitler shake hands.

This "dialogue of brothers in arms", after Pétain's words, seals the fate of France and formally commits her on the muddy path of collaboration with the nazi regime.

The "victor of Verdun" sells his soul and his country to the devil. Others, fortunately, will make other choices ...

Fortunately France is not alone because you guys helped other when they needed your help.

I wish my country didn't join as allied with the Nazis. "Get your stinking petrol from somewhere else. We're closed!"

That was not the decision of a country, that was the decision of a man who led the country.
