ANKARA, Sept 6 (KUNA) -- The Turkish Army began plans to put up an wall along borders with Iraq to prevent Kurd rebels from infiltrating into Turkey and launch terrorist attacks, Turkish Anatolia Agency said on Thursday.

The 470-kilometer-long wall, would be built in cooperation with ground and air forces, with the cost of USD 2.3 billion, the Agency said, adding that state-of-the-art cameras would be installed on the wall to monitor the area day and night.

Also, electronic and thermal monitoring devices would be placed in the rough terrains of the mountains, where the wall would not cover and the Army could not reach, the Agency said.

Cool.

Now if we could get Iran to build one too, it would be an official pig-pen. Laughing

Well, I hope they have better luck with their fence than we are. I haven't seen any indication a fence is worth the money they spend on it yet. Laughing
