re: Why didn't Germany invade Switzerland?

The dirty little secret is that the Swiss were largely on the German side. They shot down any Allied plane over their territory and interred our pilots in POW camps that were a disgrace, much worse than the German camps. They also had munitions factories that supplied the Germans. And they were happy to be bankers for the Nazis. Why would Germany want to invade them?
The Swiss didn't treat our POW's decently until it was obvious that Hitler would lose. Fack them.
ETA:
Highly recommended book that gets into this somewhat.
