Both big business loving Republicans and illegal immigrant loving Democrats like to go on and on about how building a wall won’t work. As the number of criminal aliens entering our country rises in conjunction with congressional representatives offering them free health care, college, and everything else under the sun. it’s worth examining that claim. The overwhelming truth? Walls work. Ask Israel:
Knife-wielding terrorists are proof that Israel’s security fence saves thousands of both Israeli and Palestinian lives, the fence’s creator, Danny Tirza, tells Breitbart News. He also remarks that Barack Obama did not understand the need for Israel’s security system when he spoke with him several years ago.
Mainstream media sources castigate Israel for creating a security barrier between the Jewish State and the West Bank, the name for the massive area—in one place 31 miles wide—that Israel has relinquished to the control of the Palestinian Authority. American news reports typically refer to it as a “wall,” which leftist commentators often compare to the infamous Berlin Wall.
The wall was designed by Tirza, who recently retired as a colonel in the Israeli Defense Force (IDF). For years, he traveled the entire length of the “green line” border where Palestinian political control begins, supervising the construction of the wall. He now gives detailed briefings with large maps showing the location of the fence throughout that part of Israel.
Is it any wonder that Obama didn’t seem to get it? Border security is contrary to his agenda, after all. Perhaps we can give the commander in chief a bit of credit, and just say that border security bores him. Anyway, what did all that heightened security do for Israel?
The numbers bear out the effectiveness of the security fence. According to Tirza, between 2000 and 2006, there were 4,000 terrorist attacks in Israel, resulting in the deaths of 1,639 Israelis. In stark contrast to those statistics, from 2007 through the present in 2015, there have only been 32 suicide-bomb attacks, and only 20 Israelis have died.
Walls work.
