First the "Fence," Now The Trench?

In the West Bank, they have "The Fence," actually a complicated and convoluted barrier composed of concrete walls up to 25 feet high lined with guard towers in some places and barbed wire in others.

Now, Israel wants to dig a trench 80 feet deep to block off Gaza from Egypt. Does anyone actually believe that the so-called withdrawal from Gaza is not in name only?

As if that wasn't enough, check out this article in the Jerusalem Post which indicates that Israel plans to have a "remote control" border with Gaza which would include "computerized observation posts that would automatically spot and kill attackers."

They certainly are advancing the science of killing people over there.

yes, it's truly a bizarre mix of the space age and the medieval.
