Would it surprise you to learn that another country built a 1,700-mile wall to keep illegal aliens out?  Would you be surprised to learn that we are not talking about the Great Wall of China, but something built recently, in the 1980s, by a small, impoverished country with only a fraction of the resources of the United States?
 
If you know the country I'm talking about, give yourself a gold star.
 
The country I'm talking about is Morocco!  In the 1980s, Morocco made a land grab in the sparsely populated territory to the south called the Western Sahara.  It has a problem with illegals infiltrating, and so Morocco built a 1,700-mile wall to keep them out.  And it took only five or six years to build!...
 
Morocco built the wall because it was fighting a war with rebels called the Polisario Front.  It was also confronted with the problem of illegal immigration...
 
When it comes to border security, can't we do at least as well as Morocco?
