No Bedlam in Belgium

I suppose it would just take a flick of the switch?

"Belgium hits 450th day without government" Associated Press / September 6, 2011

BRUSSELS - Belgium hit a new milestone yesterday - 450 days without a government - but still no one appears to be in any big hurry to resolve the situation.  

Because they have FOUND THEY DON'T NEED THEM!

Europe’s financial crisis and feeble economic growth may scare governments from the Arctic Circle to the Mediterranean Sea, but in Belgium it is a sideshow. Talks on a new Belgian government, which have been going on since the June 13, 2010, election, were at a standstill yesterday for a third day running.

Why? Because Green Party negotiator Jean-Michel Javaux - also the mayor of Amay, a small eastern town - had to attend a town meeting to vote on, among other things, a new police car and a computer.  

Yes, the MORE LOCAL the BETTER! 

Unfortunately, one begins to realize that MORE GOVERNMENT CENTRALIZATION really means ENSLAVEMENT and TRYANNY!

Prime Minister Yves Leterme, meanwhile, was on a visit Sunday to Israel, assuring its leaders that all’s well in Belgium.  

Why did he have to check in with them? WTF? What business is it of Israel? Does Israel control all western governments or what?

But that’s not really true. Intractable divisions between Belgium’s Dutch- and French-speaking camps are looming over the nation. And because anything can become a linguistic spat, Belgium has had 45 governments in 67 years....   

You are kidding, right?

Just three subway stops from Brussels’ idle government complex, the headquarters of the European Union watches Belgium with unease but says publicly it retains “full confidence’’ in the nation’s ability to enact finance reforms....  

The GLOBALISTS DON'T LIKE IT when you don't have a GOVERNMENT, huh?

Rooted in history and economic disparities, language spats have long dominated politics in this country of 6.6 million Dutch-speakers and 4.1 million Francophones.
 
Maybe both can secede and join the states that speak their tongue.
