IDF to Move Section of Separation Fence

There isn't anything more embarassing than Jews who are too embarassed to defend their legitimate homeland and who pander to Muslims. From IDF to Move Section of Separation Fence:
Israel's defense establishment has agreed to dismantle a 2.4-km. stretch of the West Bank separation fence north of Kalkilya in order to return 2,600 dunams of agricultural land to Palestinians. The dismantled stretch will be replaced by 4.9 km. of fencing closer to the "green line" at a cost of more than NIS 50 million. The High Court of Justice ruled in 2006 that the fence should be moved.

Walls Are Going Up All Over the World

From Walls Are Going Up All Over the World:

If good fences make good neighbors, then the world is experiencing an unprecedented outbreak of neighborliness. The latest country to start building a wall - a "security fence" - is Thailand, to stop terrorists from crossing into Thailand's restive Muslim-majority southern provinces from northern Malaysia. India's 3,000-km. barrier along its border with Pakistan is largely complete, and India is now building a 3,300 km. barrier to halt illegal immigration from Bangladesh. China is now building a fence along its frontier with North Korea as a precautionary measure to stop an immense wave of refugees if the regime in Pyongyang collapses. Pakistan is building a 1,500-mile fence with Afghanistan, Uzbekistan has built a fence along its border with Tajikistan, the United Arab Emirates is erecting a barrier along its frontier with Oman, and Kuwait is upgrading its existing 215-km. wall along the Iraqi frontier. Saudi Arabia has been quietly pursuing an $8.5 billion project to fence off its porous border with Yemen, but the highest priority now is to get a high-tech barrier built along the 900-km. border with Iraq.

Krishna at A Deeper Look has two posts that have some very interesting links re: both Israel's fence and some of the others being built around the world.
