East Berlin has always been a nice place except for the constant interference from West Berlin. The open border is often used for espionage, sabotage, currency speculation, smuggling of goods on a large scale and to attract skilled labor to West Berlin.
Today, DDR decided to solve this problem by building a little wall along our border to West Berlin. This is the only way to secure peace in the world.
The Wall will help us in East Berlin to protect ourself from militarism and imperialism. We turn away from the cold war and face international understanding instead.
Now, we will be the city of peace and international friendship!
This fact was made very clear when Walther Ulbricht gave East Berlin the medal “City of Peace” and we all became very happy.
Yes, except the USA of course.

Dear Günther,
greetings from the dark west. It has come to my realisation that die Mauer was brutally destroyed by capitalist pigs. Was the Mauer Power not strong enough or is this the beginning of the downfall of our beloved socialism and comunism.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Dear Peter,
You ask about die Mauer, and whether its strength failed. Let me put it less poetically than before: the Wall did not merely crack—it decayed into a stank of urine because some parts of it had been built of Kidney stone instead of cement so we had to take some parts away. But that is fixed now so no worries my comrade!
Mit nachdenklichen Grüßen,
Günther
