Do you really not understand how a border wall/fence, a physical barrier will dramatically lower the number of illegals coming across our Southern border? Please tell me this is a rhetorical question so we can have meaningful debate here.
If you need an example, look no further than when Israel built a fence network along its Southern border with Egypt, the Sinai.
Illegal entry to Israel from Egypt is a mere fraction of what it was just last year, new data from the Immigration and Population Authority has revealed.
While 9,570 citizens of various African countries entered Israel illegally in the first half of 2012, only 34 did the same in the first six months of 2013 – a decrease of over 99 percent.
New Data Shows 99% Drop in Illegal Entry
This is an opinion piece but is interesting in its use of a smart fence technology and working with those countries across from us.
