I bet a fence like that on our Southern boarder would be effective.

We all know that the fence doesn’t work, all it takes to defeat a 20’ fence is a 21’ ladder, besides it’s too expensive, this is just right-wing propaganda attempting to make government look bad for not protecting our borders.

So why don’t the Palestinians make the 21’ ladder?

They have a crack team on The Ladder Project, and once they get an Israeli 21’ ladder to copy they are confident they will be able to construct a reasonable facsimile.

I use to patrol fence like that in Jordan valley about thirty years ago. Was effective indeed. Mine field was even better. :-)

“The US is currently debating on whether to call the coup a coup at all, as that designation would force a suspension of American aid to the Egyptian military. “

Why bother when our muslim-in-chief can simply write an executive order and do anything he wishes without fear of consequences?

A fence, what a novel idea.

Because the Israelis understand the principle that barriers which are not combined with observations and direct fire are only an annoyance to the enemy. In other words, putting a ladder up against an Israeli fence gets you shot by an Israeli sniper.

One needs a 21ft ladder on both sides, or one ladder and a large bouncy toy on top of a VW van.

If fences don’t work, then should all fences around prisons be taken down immediately to save money?

If I was a democrat I’d say yes, because it’s obvious
that the fences are not keeping people out of prison.

The Israeli government built a fence because they actually care about Israelis.

A Good looking Fence.

Maybe they could build one for us?
