Because it was not possible to build Walls/Barriers in those Countries. Infiltrators came in from surrounding states like Morocco and Tunisia etc in Algeria Infiltrators come in from Syria ,Iran, Saudi Arabia etc etc Israel is VERY lucky it is small so a Wall/ Barrier works well together with nightly sorties into the West Bank Towns/Villages to do a clean up operation. Thats why the Pals want no "Landgrab" Wall and a stop to the raids by Tsahal and other Agencies. LONG LIVE THE WALL!!

Ah, that will be up for discussion tomorrow.

The French in Algeria built a very sophisticated security fence on the borders with Tunisia and Morroco. yet they lost... because they had absolutely no right to be there... learn the lesson, end the occupation

Build the wall ... ON YOUR INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED BORDERS! I personally don't (and can't) care if Israel wants to build the wall on it's own boundaries for security reasons or because they just love building walls or for any other reason. It's the fact that this wall is built on West Bank land that's the problem! It's not logical to take West Bank land and claim it's to keep suicide bombers out.

End.

Let Israel waste money on building walls that will soon be brought down once the West Bank occupation settlers are returned to Israel anyway. The entire West Bank and East Jerusalem are NOT part of Israel per international laws, so in the end, Israel will lose and the Palestinians will finally get justice.

Tell me how France could build a barrier right round Algeria. Tell me how can US build barrier right round Iraq. Pals trying for last 100 years to beat Israel.The Algerian and Iraq pattern is not working in Israel.If Israel built wall along Tel Aviv beachfront ,Pals would find some complaint-too near too far too high too low too this too that! Meantime that wall is just fantastic. Only victories are in the speeches of your leaders like Mashaal,Nasrallah, Everything is "Inshallah!"

"If Israel built wall along Tel Aviv beachfront ,Pals would find some complaint-too near too far too high too low too this too that!" Talkin out of your ass again. Why do you think we don't complain about the fence that's around Gaza? It's really not that complicated: build the wall on the Israel-West Bank border line. That way Israel can keep the suicide bombers out, and Palestinians will have no right to complain about land-grabbing. Everyone's happy :).

1) There are no internationally recognized borders. They were to be determined through negotiations with Egypt ( Gaza ) and Jordan ( West Bank ) according to 242. Remember the Palestinians didn't exist then as a separate people they were considered Syrian. 2) The barrier being built - and is nearly 100% effective where completed - is on Israeli land in 42% of the planned route. Only 4% - 7% of is on disputed land. Israel has offered the same amount of land - 4% - 7% - back to the Arabs in trade. The end result no land loss for the Arabs. Sounds good to me!! Mark from Georgia
