I chose to avoid most of the bait so far, even with those cloying :)s that you like adding so much, but this one is too disgusting. It's historical revisionism pure and simple that they were ever "allies" with Germany. They had a treaty to try and stall German invasion, but they never imagined things would go otherwise than one party defeating the other (though they did underestimate how soon the Germans would attack).
