- logfromblammo 7y ago20 years after to completely own its institutions. 40 years after to completely own its politics. 60 years after to completely own its crime and corruption. So yeah, about now is when Belgium is entirely off the hook. If they still feel involved from colonialist guilt-trips, that's their own problem. It's time for homegrown domestic scapegoats.
- TheCoelacanth 7y agoIt would be absurd to write-off Belgium's responsibility so quickly. The current Prime Minister was a teenager when Belgium left. His upbringing and primary schooling were all under Belgian rule. The same is true of most people involved in governing the country.
