Below is a link to one of the several online articles describing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's support for President Trump's decision to build a wall on the United States -Mexico border.

The irony from the Israelis Prime Minister is that one of the reasons for the creation of the state of Israel was to create a home where Jews could escape historical areas where walled ghetto communities and Pales of Settlement that isolated Jews ran rampant before and during World War Two and the Holocaust period.
It is sad that some in Israel do not see the historical irony in this situation. While the wall bordering Gaza has its defensive necessities, it should not be used to keep law abiding people out.
