If the Israelis could keep out Palestinians with these security fences, why can't the United States keep out illegals along the U.S.-Mexico border using the same Israeli technological innovation? Just asking.

The Saudis have a similar security fence.

We should use similar technology to guard our southern border.

this wall, on the mexican border is the perfect candidate to solve ALL of our nations current woes:

1. Less illegals using our healthcare, we get better healthcare, many less are ‘uninsured’

2. less jobs here are taken by non-tax-paying illegals

3. more taxes to reduce gov’t debt

4. less crime and poverty

5. less USA $$ goes south

6. the mexican government would then have to give more concessions to our demands

7. more virgins freed up for africa, indonesia, asia, and shorter hours for them too

8. less corrupt voting

9. less burden on USA school systems and other such services

10. 14,452,867,853 minutes are collectively saved by USA citizens not having to wait to get through the ‘press 1 for spanish, 2 for arabic, 3 for any other language on phone calls.

11. Building the fence would require work, work requires ....jobs....mmmmmmmm

everybody is a winner

The Israelis and the Saudis have border barriers that work because the people that sneak in will kill politicians and leaders if they can.
The invasion over our southern border does not endanger our politicians and elites.

Until it does, our southern border will continue to be unsecured.

For one thing, a similar wall along the US-Mexico border would be about 600 times as long as the Israeli one, and therefore impossible to control at similar levels.

And in any case, long walls don't have a very good track record, when it comes to keeping invaders out.

And given that the driving force behind illegal immigration to the US is economic -- i.e., Americans pay illegals to come here -- it would be far better to spend our time and effort on addressing those causes instead.
