Saudis build 550-mile fence to shut out Iraq


Harry de Quetteville, Middle East Correspondent

(Filed: 01/10/2006)





Security in Iraq has collapsed so dramatically that Saudi Arabia has ordered the construction of a 550-mile high-tech fence to seal off its troubled northern neighbour.
The huge project to build the barrier, which will be equipped with ultraviolet night-vision cameras, buried sensor cables and thousands of miles of barbed wire, will snake across the vast and remote desert frontier between the countries.

If they electrify it and put troops along it with orders to shoot-to-kill, it may work. Too bad we can't do that on our southern border.
