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. Then Belgium, or what is left of it after Flanders and Wallonia secede, would be free to take on a useful role in the ranks of world's nations and making chocolate and beer and lace. That creepy royal family would have to attend that meting also. :elefant:
Perhaps the rump, or is that the runts, of the Belgian royal family could be flambée-ed live on a new gameshow, with interactive features allowing viewers to determine the precise temperature of the flames....
