Saskia de Costa's suggestion for a peaceful Belgium
Flemish author Saskia de Coster presents an ironic suggestion for a peaceful Belgium: "We have this saying that we Belgians are born with a brick in our bellies. There isn't a single mad-builder among us who can resist the urge to construct walls, carry rocks around and fill in all holes. . ... In this sense, the last jobless people with any sense should not be loafing around. They should commence with the construction of a 1,482 kilometre long wall around Belgium, as a way of keeping our prosperous country together, at least symbolically. This was already the plan at the time of the founding of the state in 1830. Belgium's patron saint is, after all, Joseph – the carpenter – who was not married to Mary and yet became a father. Walloons and Flemish never fraternized, but Belgium is still a country that impregnated with progress and harmony. Such a wall would finally join us. Brussels would be secure, and our fatherland would be saved. The Flemish may give the command, the elderly may cross themselves, and the Walloons may work."
