Its concrete slabs are more than 20 ft. high and crowned with coils of razor wire; the wind seems to blow every stray plastic bag in the Holy Land into its cold shadows. The Palestinians like to say, accurately or not, that the wall can be seen from outer space...

Even during the Cold War, Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il's father, would routinely play the Soviet Union and China off each other. In 2002, Kim Jong Il made a well-publicized trip to China, and in Shanghai - the country's showcase of development - the Dear Leader famously said it was clear that...
