As we hear it here in Holland (as the Belgians are our best friends since they no longer are better at football then us) the Flemish are actually far more open to one Belgium then the Wallonians ... not mentioning Felip Dewinter ofcourse.

I have nothing against immigrants, but if you want to work in a country speak the language. Princess Maxima learned it in a couple of months, so start learning. Dutch ain't that difficult.
The famous Flemish grasp on foreign languages is far overrated, I do know some Walloons who speak near perfect Dutch. Let's not forget that for a lot of people learning Dutch is just a waste of time, since they won't come in contact with the Flemish much. And the best way to learn a language is using it, I've had 7+ years of French and can hardly express my self in la langue de Molière.

One of the biggest issues is actually our royality I beleive. If those retards would just take the time to learn decent Dutch a lot of our 'insecurities' would have been avoided imho. But they are a constant symbol of the history of the Flemish as 'second class citizens'.
