So would extermination. Obviously nobody's in favour of exterminating all German people though. Do you think Germans are culturally or genetically more likely to start wars?

Not what I was saying - most iraqis are probably happy with us being over there - but they're still occupied, because even if they weren't happy - **** 'em. We stay.

Why are we talking about Iraq all of a sudden? Wasn't the question whether Germany was occupied or not? I'm pretty sure very few people would argue that Iraq isn't occupied. Iraqi public opinion is very much anti-coalition forces by the way.
