    So what is Iceland’s equivalent to the whole “being the most prolific funder and enabler of fascist terrorism in human history” that they are (supposedly) neglecting?

      Best I could find is that they were one of the largest beneficiaries of that funding. Also they extended their fishing rights well beyond their coast, but it’s unclear to me if it breached international law or not.

      Supposedly they had broken some international agreements and rules, because the Wikipedia article mentioned that the US defended them in those instances and let the infractions happen.

      That’s the best I’ve got though. They’re surprisingly quite clean. Depends I guess on how you view their accepting American money.

        Yeah… it’s actually really difficult to think of them as “western” or even “white.”
