Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the surprising news out of Iceland where the Icelandic people solidly defeated a referendum-based effort for Iceland to begin talks to join the European Union. What does this say about the Icelandic people? What major wrench does this defeat throw into the European Union’s plans to bring Greenland and Canada into their coalition? Is this the European Union’s equivalent of the Soviet Union’s withdrawal from Afghanistan in 1988?
