Odd how such a fence is said to be worthless against Mexican illegals.

Hey, I wonder if we can let a contract to the Saudis for similar construction in the American Southwest...?

So they can build a fence to keep out a determined foe and we can’t seem to muster the resolve to build one to keep out border jumpers.

Sumphin so wrong heah....

Yet, Barack keeps his head buried in the sand-trap.

Okay, so how do we explain the 9/11 hijackers? Didn’t they come from Saudi? Doesn’t that mean it’s already in the country, subverting it, working inside the walls?

Good for Saudi Arabia. Not good for USA southern border. Not good for Israel.

Apparently, defensive walls are good only when put up to defend an IslamoNazi dicatorship. Free peoples who strive for liberty in the Judeo-Christian Western tradition are forbidden to defend themselves.

Got it!?

Encourage Saudi Arabia to build a wall around their whole country. Then fill it with water.

Just for some history and perspective:

Saudis Plan Long Fence for Iraq Border
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/09/27/AR2006092701214.html
September 27, 2006

Saudi Arabia is pushing ahead with plans to build a fence to block terrorists from crossing its 560-mile border with Iraq _ another sign of growing alarm that Sunni-Shiite strife could spill over and drag Iraq's neighbors into its civil conflict.

The barrier, which hasn't been started, is part of a $12 billion package of measures including electronic sensors, security bases and physical barriers to protect the oil-rich kingdom from external threats

EADS wins large Saudi border protection deal
Published 21 July 2009

http://www.homelandsecuritynewswire.com/eads-wins-large-saudi-border-protection-deal

“As is the case with other serious border-protection efforts, the northern fence, along the Saudi border with Iraq, was never designed to be a stand-alone effort. It is part of a much larger border project which was first considered after the 1991 Gulf War. The Saudis have conducted a 13-year long bidding competition for a more comprehensive system of border and infrastructure security measures. DID says that bidders included France’s Thales and EADS, Britain’s BAE Systems, and U.S. company Raytheon. Now, a contract worth a reported $2.3-2.8 billion (Ynet estimates the contrat to be worth $3.5 billion) has been issued for more than 8,000 miles of fencing and surveillance. Even as Saudi Arabia’s biggest concerns have shifted away from its northern border.

On 30 June, EADS announced:

After being under contract for the northern border security, which is now under execution [DID: in cooperation with Al-Rasheed Trading Contracting], EADS Defense & Security has been awarded (as prime contractor) the border security program covering the full borders of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This contract will be executed in the next 5 years and is the largest contract ever competed worldwide as a full solution…. The Saudi border guard will benefit from a leading edge solution, providing visibility and operational awareness for about 9000km of borderline (mountains, deserts and sea borders). The solution will ensure border coverage is visible and managed at the sector level, whilst simultaneously providing situational awareness at the regional and national level.”

It will be as good as keeping Saudi terrorists confined in Saudi Arabia is.

The Saudis might also want to consider NOT FUNDING the mosques that are radicalizing the people that want to behead their Royal Family.

They finance terror around the world but don’t want it to hit them. Piss be upon them.
