Would this country be Switzerland or some other Neutral by any chance? My
guess would diplomacy followed by threats then sabotage then if that failed
whoops our bombers strayed off course..

I am going to outline a real situaitoin that occured during WW II. I

would
like to hear opinions and solutions as to how the situation should be

handled.
I will give the real solutuion that was imposed during the war after a

week or
so when many opinions have been offered.

There was a large factory producing torpedo gyroscopes and timeing

devices
for the German submarine service. It was located in the midst of a

very
populated area where the highly skilled workers lived with their

families.
These workers were near irreplaceable. It took many years to learn the

needed
skills, and without these workers production and quality would have

been
dramatically down graded. One more point. This factory was not in any

country
with which America or England was at war. What would you have done?

Remember
these German torpedoes were slaughtering American and British seamen

and
denying food and arms to England. What would you have done? Opinions?


I'd have offered them more for the gyros than the Germans could pay.
