The Swiss Launch Preemptive Strike on Lichtenstein
Either the Swiss government had decided that the tiny neighboring kingdom of Lichtenstein had some stolen uranium hidden away or their troops just got lost, but the normally peaceful Swiss invaded their neighbor yesterday.
Lichtenstein is taking it pretty well for a country that just got invaded.
"According to Swiss daily Blick, the 170 infantry soldiers wandered just over a
mile across an unmarked border into the tiny principality early Thursday before
realizing their mistake and turning back."
Lichtenstein is taking it pretty well for a country that just got invaded.
"Interior ministry spokesman Markus Amman said nobody in Liechtenstein had
even noticed the soldiers, who were carrying assault rifles but no ammunition.
"It's not like they stormed over here with attack helicopters or something," he
said."
