I was not trying to say the allies had no business there, just that the colonial map in Africa had alot of Euro (allied and Axis) colors on it.
And that the fight there had nothing to do with the actual citizens of the countries, but of politics elsewheres.
I do not expect allegiance from them honestly.
Unlike say the Normandy invasion, or Market Garden (failed), that served to liberate a country, and not preserve imperialistic ties.
