Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called President Trump’s proposed border wall a “great idea” for preventing illegal immigration.
“President Trump is right,” Neyanyahu tweeted Saturday. “I built a wall along Israel’s southern border. It stopped all illegal immigration. Great success. Great idea.”
Netanyahu’s praise could appeal to Trump, is under fire from international critics over a series of immigration-related executive orders, including mandates to suspend refugee resettlement in the United States and build the wall.
Trump cited Israel’s wall throughout the presidential campaign to deflect criticism that a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border wouldn’t be prudent.
“Look the wall is necessary,” Trump said Thursday on Fox News. “That’s not just politics, and yet it is good for the heart of the nation in a certain way because people want protection. And a wall protects. All you have to do is ask Israel. They were having a total disaster coming across, and they had a wall. It’s 99.9 percent stoppage.” The Israeli fencing hasn’t been a perfect success at keeping illegal immigrants out of the country. “Depending on the season, up to 60,000 Palestinians without work permits sneak across the barrier to work in construction, agriculture or service industries in Israel, either through gaps in the route or by utilizing the services of local smugglers,” according to the New York Times. “And occasionally, the system is defeated by Palestinians who carry out terrorist attacks.” The company that built the Israeli border fencing hopes to be involved in the U.S. project, with the warning that walls are only effective in populated areas. “If you’re in an open spaces, which is more like a desert in a way, not a lot of vegetation, and no nearby cities, then you know putting a fence for thousands of kilometers or miles it just doesn’t make sense,” Hagai Katz, a spokesman for Magal Security Systems, told the Intercept in August.
