In Israel they also have electric fences which I think is a great idea here..have one of these vermin try to cross the border illegally and watch them become a crispy critter
Should be built by Americans ; maintained by Americans and patrolled by Americans.
If the Israeli company gets the contract the workers will be Americans.
Based on that logic Germany, Japan, France, Korea and Italy each owe us several trillion dollars in infrastructure construction just for our help after World War II. Plus Germany should gift us two dozen of those nice conventional submarines that they build.
I trust your knowledge on this ;)
the following was an article written years ago- and the numbers today are likely quite a bit higher- and these are just a small piece of the costs that illegals wreak on this country, and the damage and crimes they commit:
Crimes Committed by Illegal Immigrants
http://www.usillegalaliens.com/impacts_of_illegal_immigration_crime_summary.html
In recent Testimony of District Attorney John M. Morganelli before the House Subcommittee on immigration, Border, Security and Claims he stated:
“Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged in criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent social security numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses represent some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens on a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal status.
In addition, violent crime and drug distribution and possession is also prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today’s federal prison population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the country, 12% of felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are committed by illegal aliens.”
•In Los Angeles, 95% of some 1,500 outstanding warrants for homicides are for illegal aliens. About 67% of the 17,000 outstanding fugitive felony warrants are for illegal aliens.
•There are currently over 400,000 unaccounted for illegal alien criminals with outstanding deportation orders. At least one fourth of these are hard core criminals.
•80,000 to 100,000 illegal aliens who have been convicted of serious crimes are walking the streets. Based on studies they will commit an average of 13 serious crimes per perpetrator.
•Illegal aliens are involved in criminal activities at a rate that is 2-5 times their representative proportion of the population.
•In 1980, our Federal and state facilities held fewer than 9,000 criminal aliens but at the end of 2003, approximately 267,000 illegal aliens were incarcerated in U.S. correctional facilities at a cost of about $6.8 billion per year.
•At least 4.5 million pounds of cocaine with a street value of at least $72 billion is smuggled across the southern border every year. ..
•56% of illegal aliens charged with a reentry offense had previously been convicted on at least 5 prior occasions.
•Illegal aliens charged with unlawful reentry had the most extensive criminal histories. 90% had been previously arrested. Of those with a prior arrest, 50% had been arrested for violent or drug-related felonies.
•Illegal aliens commit between 700,000 to 1,289,000 or more crimes per year.
•Illegal aliens commit at least 2,158 murders each year – a number that represents three times greater participation than their proportion of the population.
•Illegal alien sexual predators commit an estimated 130,909 sexual crimes each year.
•There may be as many as 240,000 illegal alien sex offenders circulating throughout America. Based on studies, they will commit an average of 8 sex crimes per perpetrator before being caught.
•Nearly 63% of illegal alien sex offenders had been deported on another offense prior to committing the sex crime.
•Only 2% of the illegal alien sex offenders in one study had no history of criminal behavior, beyond crossing the border illegally.
•In Operation Predator, ICE arrested and deported 6,085 illegal alien pedophiles. Some studies suggest each pedophile molests average of 148 children. If so, that could be as many as 900,580 victims.
•Nobody knows how big the Sex Slave problem is but it is enormous.
•The very brutal MS-13 gang has over 15,000 members and associates in at least 115 different cliques in 33 states.
•The overall financial impact of illegal alien crimes is estimated at between $14.4 and $81 billion or more per year. Factor in the crime as a result of the cocaine and other drugs being smuggled in and the number may reach $150 billion per year.
[[Congressman Steve King (R-IA) estimates that illegal alien drunk drivers kill 13 Americans every day — that’s a death toll of 4,745 per year.[4]
The 23 percent criminal traffic offenders figure is only part of the overall picture. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, another 23 percent, more than 43,000 illegal aliens, were convicted of drug offenses. The violent crime category of assault, robbery, sexual assault, and family offenses comes to 12 percent. The non-violent crime grouping of larceny, fraud, and burglary totaled seven percent, and on the list goes — equaling 100 percent of illegal aliens who have been through the criminal justice system and inflicted thousands to millions in cost per alien on the system, for issues having nothing to do with their illegal entry into the country]]

President Trump will put that in the contract. There’s no way he wouldn’t.
You are using the word “logic” loosely.
They know how to run a spy network too secret agent man.

“Even if the wall cost us $400 billion- We would save that and more in just the first year if we also deported criminal illegals and clamped down on illegals like we should be doing- but at just $15 Billion? I’d say it’s a no brainer- build the wall- it’ll save hundreds of billions of dollars a year- and trillions in the long run.”
Exactly right.
We have a very serious and very expensive problem on our hands when it comes to illegals- The left has been desperately trying to hide this fact by making it seem like illegals are all hard working individuals who escape brutal conditions to come here to make a better life for themselves and to help our country- While some may- not very many do- many wind up on some forms of government welfare or handouts-
Very biblical. Almost like the parable of the talents.
I like it.

can’t bail water from the boat until you first patch the leak.
what you said “No Brainer”.
I saw a U tube some place that showed Israel with pillbox placements every hundred yards armed with automatic twin 50’s on heat sensors. It showed a jack rabbit wonder across the marked zone and disappear in a blur of red.
I still think a canal cut across would be more economical. We could charge for passage and the current would be too strong to swim. It would lower the waterline around Florida and flood out Californicate at the same time. Win! Win! Win!
“Since we gave them $38 billion in aid, will that cover it?”
Cute, but that’s over 10 years so comes out to 3.8 billion a year. We give almost 6 times that amount to the hostile Islamic countries surrounding them every year. And it pales into insignificance against the 150 Billion we gave Iran. That’s more in one year than Israel has received since 1948.
So no, that won’t cover it.
Take a look at the linked pic. Too bad we can’t put armed troops on the border with orders to shoot trespassers. Bet that helps secure the border more than the fence or wall.
I say if they have the proven technology, let them have at it.
