Schadenfraude
As in, I'm just loving the delicious taste of this bit of irony. You should read the whole thing, but the gist is this:
The tiny autonomous island non-nation of Aland may hold the power to derail the next go-round on the EU Constitution. Aland is attached to Finland but maintains the power to veto international treaties that Finland might take a notion to sign on to. Aland is in a snit over the way they feel they've been treated by the august body at Brussels. Said snit is a direct effect of EU measures that cost Alanders the right to fish with traditional-type nets and hunt spring duck. The threat of losing their Swedish chewing tobacco appears to be the last straw, however, and now they've sent an emissary to Brussels to make a few threats of their own. Power to the People, man!
