History is on Jessica Alba's side in her ongoing feud with Bill O'Reilly, MSNBC reports. After the Fox anchor ridiculed Alba and called her a "pinhead" for apparently confusing Sweden with Switzerland by telling a reporter to "be neutral, be Sweden about it," Alba fired back with a blog post pointing out that Sweden is also a neutral country. She added a link to Wikipedia in case O'Reilly was still confused.

"Mr. Bill O'Reilly and some really classy sites (ie, TMZ) insinuated I was dumb by claiming Sweden was a neutral country," Alba blogged. "I appreciate the fact that he is a news anchor and that gossip sites are inundated with intelligent reporting, but seriously people, it's so sad that you think the only neutral country during WWII was Switzerland.” (More Jessica Alba stories.)
