#2 Look for the Press Chorus, "Worthless, useless, too expensive, etc"

"Humans are Baaaad, Pigs are Good,
(repeat endlessly)

#3 They have a good strong wall (some would say Great) in China that could serve as a model of what the Gaza wall should look like.

#4 Some of the Israeli border walls have posts that extend 20' or more underground. Some of the posts are said to have sensors in them to alert for tunnel activity (who knows if this is true).

However, some of the border fences are little more than 20' wide sections of various types of barrier wire with some short (3' or so) and intermittent concrete anchoring walls.

#5 guess that would kinda make them like the Maginot line (sp) wouldn't it

#6 The magenoit line covered the German/France border not the French/Beligian border. If it covered the entire distance it would have worked.

I'm thinking the Israeli's might need a moat of hot lava.

#7 "I'm thinking the Israeli's might need a moat of hot lava."

Works for me, rj.

Maybe Italy can pipe some over - they've got plenty they don't need.
