"Marokkaanse veiligheidsmuur al twee decennia onomstreden" [Moroccan security wall has been undisputed for two decades]. CIDI Israel Newsletter (in Dutch). The Hague. 2 February 2004. Archived from the original on 9 February 2005. Until now, no mention has been made in the media or international politics of the fact that Morocco has had a 'security wall' for more than twenty years, consisting of meters high sand mountains, bunkers, barbed wire barriers and minefields. The structure is 2,500 kilometers long (longer than the Great Wall of China) and aims to keep Polisario guerrillas out of Morocco and the part of Western Sahara occupied by that country since 1976.
