I just heard, in the evening news, about an article in the Herald Tribune commenting on the situation in Flanders. Apparently the author used the term ethnic cleansing and backed it up by a anectdote of a Flemish daycare center refusing Walloons.

Flemish people are supposedly viewed as non-violent fascists by foreigners.



People on this forum (hopefully) know me as a moderate Flem. Someone who puts things in perspective before commenting on something. However this factoid was not well received and has me got worked up (at least for the rest of the evening).

So,

Do you really see us Flemish people as passive Hitlers threathening the walloon minority in Belgium? (Don't be put off by the dramatic wording, writing works therapeutic )




P.S. I don't seem to be able to find the above mentioned article. If anybody would be so kind to post a link so I (and the rest the interested orgahs) can read it in more detail. I'll refrain myself from attacking the article until I've read it.
