Little Belgium “So, little Belgium,

Little Belgium

“So, little Belgium, which twice in the last century was overrun by a brutal and aggressive dictatorship that was on its way to invading a third country, has blocked NATO from carrying out its duty to help a member state — Turkey — defend itself against another brutal and aggressive tyrant [front page, Feb. 11].

That Belgium has done so with the full support of Germany, the very power that twice trampled it, and France, none other than Germany’s two-time target, makes one wonder why it is Americans who have the reputation of being impervious to both history and irony.” (A letter from a reader in the Washington Post)
