#1 I think that Sharon's doing the move that someone on RB conjectured about recently:

1. Build the wall. Keep the Paleos out.
2. Secure the settlements with the wall that are defendable.
3. Write off the indefensible settlements.
4. Initiate deadly counterbattery fire to any rocket attacks from the Paleo side of the wall.
5. Let the Paleos live in their sick little ghettos according to whatever laws they decide to govern themselves with.

Sounds like a sound plan. Good fences make good neighbors.

#2 How ironic life is. We had one wall (Berlin) to keep people in, now another one to keep them out.

#3 There are many walls designed to keep people out for example the border of the US and Mexico and the EU built a beauty to keep the North Africans out.

#4 There's nothing to discuss with Syria. They attacked, then got pushed back, and subsequently lost a valuable piece of land. Tough shit.

#5 not much of a wall on the us-mexican border. only walls, really chain-link fences , are located in populated areas of the border (with many,many holes). Outside of the cities, if you can ruff the desert for a hundred miles or so, it is mainly electronic surveillance.

what walls did the eu build to keep out north africans? just curious since i have not heard of one.

I'm pretty sure they dug a trench instead.
