The lesson I am learning from these images is that if you want to keep criminals and generally bad people (including illegal aliens) out of your country, the best way to do it is to build a wall just like this one. The US is facing great difficulties because of the hordes crossing over from Mexico. The Mexican government defends its own borders with Guatemala and Belize but scoffs at US immigration laws. The US must build a wall like this to keep illegal aliens out. Americans, tell your government " We want a wall on the Mexican border, keep them out."!!!! Everyone go to the Mexican consulate and embassy. Protest the Mexican presence in the US and tell them "Mexico go home, now!!!

Eyal:
You know, when I first got to this site, I thought it was yet another anti-Israel site.
After having gone through it more, however, I must say I am impressed with your objectivity.
I now believe that you are being fair and balanced in your presentation of the wall.
You tried to "sneak-in" political comments with debatable "facts" into a comment about the photo. I do not like arguaing - if I want endless debate I would be an attorney.
Let the photos speak for themselfs or if You want to comment on the photos - you are welcome.
As I told you before: There are many many Internet sites that deal with endless debate about political issues - you can join one of them or start your own. Let me give you a hint about news groups:
Godwin's Law is a natural law of Usenet named after Mike Godwin
(godwin@eff.org) concerning Usenet "discussions". It reads, according to
the Jargon File:
As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison
involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.
So, what this means in practical terms:
o If someone brings up Nazis in general conversation when it
wasn't necessary or germane without it necessarily being an
insult, it's probably about time for the thread to end.
o If someone brings up Nazis in general conversation when it
was vaguely related but is basically being used as an insult,
the speaker can be considered to be flaming and not debating.
o If someone brings up Nazis in any conversation that has been
going on too long for one of the parties, it can be used as
a fair excuse to end the thread and declare victory for the
other side.
This is a photo of Palestinian civilians on their way to work.
They wait for an opportunity when Border Police is not around and jump over the wall from one side of the Palestinian town of Abu-Dis to the other side of town on their way to Jerusalem.
Since this photo was taken, a 24 Ft. wall replaced the 6 ft wall and no crossing is possible in this place any more. The Palestinians now cross via a gate that has around the clock police guard with metal detectors.
