Cool

Today's headline : "15 Die in Iraq Copter attack"
followed by "there are currently 30 attacks on coalition forces EVERY DAY in Iraq".

I can't help but draw parallels to the underground in WW2, although I want to avoid if I can, the well travelled debate about "Are today's terrorists the same as freedom fighters in WW2?" [img]graemlins/no.gif[/img]

I was thinking about the French resistance post 1942, If someone can provide some information as to the activities of the resistance (doesn't have to be French), info like:

* What effect did they have on the Occupation if any?
* Did the Germans react to it like the current US administration does today?
* What did the Germans do to limit its effect and did it work?
