Israel's Apartheid/Berlin Wall (including map of the wall)
'The Apartheid Wall will be 8m high and probably 1.000km long. For comparison, China's Great Wall – the only human-made object seen from outer space – is 6.700km long, whereas the Berlin Wall was a dwarf, just 155km long and 3,6m high.' The wall does not follow the green line, but takes in about half of the territory of the Occupied West Bank. If this 8m high wall is completed at this length, it will astound people who encounter it and will be a symbol and rallying point of resistance to occupation. In this sense building such a wall could become a long term public relations liability for Israel: "Mr President, tear down this wall!"
