A ditch is a fence of negative height.
450 kilometers—impossible! (Channeling our border-fence haters here).
450 kilometers is a little hard to believe - now if they expressed it as 279 miles, I might be more prone to believing the impossible.
I bet that if they called for volunteers to help build a fence, the dang thing would be built before they could tally all the names....
This is a joke right?
They honestly believe an irrigation ditch will stop military equipment?
A couple of logs in the bottom of it and my dodge 4x4 could cross it.
The problem is the people men & woman to age 60 years old are fighting separatist.
