There are just as many (and few) conscious people in any country on the planet. Thinking otherwise is inaccurate and also reinforces and in fact validates the efforts of local powers to rally a larger part of their subjects in defence of a cultural, irrelevant but real, identity, thus muddling the problem. There were as many (and few) resistants in Nazi Germany as there were in France. I see all these people as my "brothers/sisters" and I don't like it when they are drowned in a sea of commiseration.
