On the Fact that While Germany's Violation of Belgian Territory at the Beginning of WW1 Was Certainly Deplorable and Worthy of Condemnation, the Fact that the British Essentially Did the Same Thing to Greece Two Years Later Absent Even a Molecule of Hand-Wringing, Yeah, History's Written by the Victors for Sure

And as the great libertarian historian, Ralph Raico, stated, a mere Century earlier these same British (during the Napoleonic conflicts) entered Copenhagen harbor, bombarded the city for hours, and ultimately seized the entire Danish fleet (Britain's rationale being that Napoleon would have eventually done likewise and so why not a preemptive foray, I guess). Again, not all that different from what the Germans did and were crucified for (not just by the British but by the anglophiles in our country).
