Hadrian's Wall would not have protected the Romans if the Celts had been flying fully armed F-15s. Against a low-tech enemy like the Palestinians, a wall can still serve a purpose. But against an enemy with access to airplanes and/or long-range missiles, plus destructive warheads, a wall is an irrelevant distraction.

" a wall is an irrelevant distraction "

If the conflict is between two states with armies then you make a good point but the current conflict is purely between cultures. So if a stronger culture attacks the weaker -- and in our case the Muslims are attacking the Western Culture -- we don't seem have a good defense against them -- or will to repell them.

Western culture is too weak in will and purpose to build any kind of wall and to put up a defense.
