Portions of the Vatican wall are fourteen feet thick.
“Historically speaking, surrounding a town or city with walls was rarely a bad idea. Pirates, raiders, and rival states were just a few threats to a settlement, making fortifications a wise investment of time and money. Vatican City was no exception.”
“Pope Leo IV built the first wall around the Vatican City in the 9th century as a reaction to the threat posed by Saracen pirates. The fortifications were strengthened in the 16th century.”
The 39-foot-tall Leonine Wall, as it became known, stretched for a little under two miles as it encircled Vatican Hill. It was the first time the area had been completely enclosed. Once the Muslim threat had passed, many of the city gates were opened.

The Hungarians have a pretty good border wall, too. It’s why you don’t have terror attacks in Hungary like in France and Germany.
Hungary’s wall works. It protects that small nation and its people. So naturally the EU wants it removed.

Mr. Netanyahu needs to tear down that wall. He really has no other choice, the Camp David accords be damned.

I expect the Egyptian border guards also have permission to shoot invaders coming over their wall.

“”the mainstream media and the Global Professional Outrage Machine have both ignored it.””
In 2014 Egypt destroyed over 2,000 Hamas tunnels at the same southern Gaza border. Egypt used major explosives, and even pumped the Mediterranean water into the tunnels.
I do not remember one Drive-By Media creep mention it. Perhaps Israel could state they are following the Egyptian model for Middle East peace.

Years ago I drove across the Hungarian border. The lady at border control seemed like a Soviet Babushka, and wanted to see our passports and have us open the trunk to our car. Lots of luggage, but she wasn’t interested...pushed us along.
Later on, I realized she was simply looking for ‘migrants’, and now she is a HERO of mine!
