Saudi Arabia to Build Apartheid Wall

Sure, it’s a gimme…


Saudi Arabia has invited bids for the construction of a security fence along the entire length of its 900km (560mile) desert border with Iraq in a multimillion-pound project that will attract interest from British defence companies. The barrier is part of a package to secure the Kingdom’s 6,500km of borders in an attempt to improve internal security and bolster its defences against external threats.

… but we’ll take it: so, when can we expect the International Court of Justice and a wave of human rights protesters to start descending on Saudi Arabi (hmmm… maybe after they get done with Russia’s fence?)
