It would give political commentators a chance to refurbish one of their favorite phrases, last used in connexion with Bosnia-Hercogivina, though. If Flanders and Walloonia seceded their would be a "rump" Belgium left, the area around Brussells, inhabited by eurocratsWe could call a meeting for all the Eurocrats and NATO brass and once they were all assembled in Brussells get some Israeli backpackers on working visas to build a big wall around the meeting place and fill it to the brim with concrete.
