No need to partition Belgium, so long as the people do not wish for that to happen. Unless of course somehow they begin to hate eachother and start a genocide or somewhat.

HUR HUR WE ARE ALL SO SMART, LETS GIVE WALLONIA TO FRANCE HUR HUR.
Ever thought off something like "the will of the poeple?"
Oh wait, you are eastern-european, I guess not.
The orangists and the rattachists are very small minorities here, and with a reason.
Man, I was questioning Winner's opinions, no need to be like that, you know? I was just wondering why he was attributing different "fates" to the two parts. There was not the SLIGHTEST idea of ME wanting to do something about this or supporting one way or another or interfering in any way with the politics over there.
The part with putting into my mouth the words "LET'S GIVE WALLONIA TO FRANCE" is almost offensive, you know? I did not make the slightest mention of that! AGAIN I was ONLY questioning Winner. And he answered in a very civil and understandable way.
I'm reacting to the most common opinion here, you don't need to feel "special". and seeing your reaction, now you get what i get when i read this thread.
It's like a barrage of idiots saying something idiotic like, "let's give Moldavia Romania as a prtectorate or something".
How long does it have to be? We're at 18 months now...No need. The only thing you need is a long political impasse. Eventually even the moderates will start supporting a peaceful dissolution.

...and then have federal elections combined with the already scheduled regional annd European elections.
Personally, I find it disturbing that so many people here seem to take it upon themselves to partition a country that isn't even theirs.

Well no, Moldavia is a region of an ethnicity, not vice-versa. What you would be suggesting is giving Flanders the Netherlands, when I am calling for the reverse. It would be giving Romania Moldavia.
What annoys me a lot, is that the Flemish Liberals are the ones who are making the most fuss about this 'division of the powers", while it was their government, lead by Guy verhofstad, who made the parlement mute by ruling through 'framework laws" (kaderwetten). But apparently the division between legislative and executive pozer is less important than the one between legislative and judiciary.and btw guys, this scandal isn't even about the different communities or any struggles between them, it's about division of powers.
yes, you are technically right, but i was trying to find something for Mirc.
Anyway, in the newspaper (demorgen) there is a great article on the corelation between this by Leterme and Nixon and watergate.
Well, I guess Leterme is our Nixon then.
and btw guys, this scandal isn't even about the different communities or any struggles between them, it's about division of powers.
Conclusions after the Sunday tv debates: Nobody wants to be PM of our country
Leterme doesn't want to any more; Didier Reynders doens't; Herman Van Rompuy doesn't; Kris Peeters doesn't; Guy Verhofstadt: haven't heard anything from him in the last week; ...
Any suggestions?
FREE TIBET!Personally, I find it disturbing that so many people here seem to take it upon themselves to partition a country that isn't even theirs.
Do you think he want's to be PM? Isn't it much better for him to stay in the opposition, where he can get away with his populistic rethoric, without having to come up with any real solutions?The only problem there is, he might want to be PM, but nobody else wants him to.
