Walls were prevalent in pre-industrial society but express much about our 21st century advanced, supposedly, civilization.

Egypt is building a thick 60 to 90 foot deep steel wall along 14 miles of its Gaza border. Israel is doing the same. They already have 30 foot high cement walls surrounding most of Gaza.

Walls in early civilizations were built for protection against marauding bands of criminals and functional opposing armies. Walls today are built to keep people in. Locked in an open air prison of sorts, prevented from leaving, prevented from access to needs, prevented from life itself.

The Gaza tunnels support a thriving underground economy valued at 1 million dollars a day. They transport food, fuel, clothing and even potable water through the tunnels. Tunnel rats we call them here. Survival is how they see it.

Please, for a moment, imagine acquiring all of your worldly needs through a tunnel in your city that leads to the world outside that you're prevented from accessing. Israel prevents even crayons and shoelaces from entering Gaza.

Is not the building of walls a criminal act in the 21st century? Are we not more advanced then our ancient ancestors. Maybe not.

Even if every citizen living in Gaza were a terrorist, and they aren't, wouldn't they deserve a fair and balanced trial in a legal setting before being imprisoned for LIFE?

What will people think of us 200 years from now when they dig up the remnants of the steel wall surrounding and enclosing the people of Gaza? Will they consider us, 1000s of miles away, to blame?

They just might.

By remaining a viable source of global frustration and protest they have won to this point. Today they're still the victors. They aren't vanquished just yet. That may not always be true.
