Israel built a 245 mile wall. Illegal immigration dropped from 9570 to 34 over the same time period.

Obviously it won't be foolproof, but that's pretty good.

I'm willing to bet that most of the money used to build that 245-mile wall came from the US (via aids).

Perhaps Trump should ask Israel for help in building his wall.

I'm sure he will ask them for engineering help and guidance.

Indeed. And I'm sure they'll be happy to provide both. That's what allies are supposed to do. Sure will be a nice change from the past eight years of barely contained hostility.

barely contained hostility or simply correcting your friend when he's behaving badly.

From your comment, I think you'll love the next 4 years. I just pity the Palestinians.

> I just pity the Palestinians.

I'm sure they'll welcome yet more pity to wallow in.

The problem with your argument is that it presumes that a border can't be protected. As far as I could discover in my brief searches for information during the election, the border is fairly secure.

So, really the wall is more of a symbol than actual border security. Sadly, it's a symbol that resonates with a disturbingly large percent of the population.

What stops Mexicans from just going through regular border crossings and never leaving?
