Remember, lots of countries have border security. What's infamous about
the Berlin Wall is that it was built to keep their people in, not to
keep attackers out.

Given the current, global political climateand turmoil, with
the various fear factors, and people building "walls" to protect
themselves from fears both real and imagined -- it is worthwhile
to reflect on another historical human milestone of the 20th
Century:

The construction of The Berlin Wall.
