Very few women actively participated in the Dutch resistance during World War II considering the risks involved.

One would think that these few women would be all adults with power and influence.

But do you know that this select group included young teenage girls like Freddie Oversteegen?.

The rationale behind was no one would suspect beautiful and seemingly innocent young girls to be resistance fighters.

She would seduce the Nazi and when he was completely enamored, she would ask him to go for a stroll.

Apart from their seduction mission, Freddie and Truus also acted as couriers and had stolen official identity papers.

The sisters were awarded the Mobilisatie-Oorlogskruis (war mobilization cross) in 2004 for their valuable role in the resistance movement. »

Searching for the app within the App Store right now only brings up other apps unrelated to Infowars. »

Spinal adjustment/manipulation is a core treatment in chiropractic care, but it is not synonymous with chiropractic.

Trade is likely to be a major topic when Trump meets Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe around Sept 25 on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly.

The Trump administration has pushed Japan to further open its automobile and agriculture markets as part of efforts to reduce the chronic U.S. trade deficit. »
