    A number of reasons.

    First, there would be a massive environmental impact of a massive wall that was that size.

    Second, the sheer manpower to properly patrol that size border would be incredibly expensive.

    Third, there would be costs associated with maintaining the wall.

    Fourth, people would find otherways in - that can be under the wall, through ship channels or airplanes.

    The largest wall ever built was the Great Wall of China, and it was 5,000 miles long and failed to keep people out.

    The estimates are that over 1,000,000 died constructing the wall and the costs of patrolling the wall quickly proved too pricey.

    People went through and over the Great Wall - which happens at the US border already.

    Even now, the US border wall isn't really a wall in the same way that the Egyptian border. Part of that is because the Egyptian Border is so much smaller and the type of terrain does not chance like it does in the US border.

    There have also been numerous bi-partisan research studies that have questioned the effectiveness of the build a contiguous wall across the Texas and Mexico border.

    So it is apples to oranges to compare a border that is tiny to the US border, especially one like the Egyptian border where there is almost no substantive trade with the Palestinians in the occupied territory.

    I am fine with there being fencing and borders in certain areas, and if they are maintained, they can be a deterrent to individuals attempting to crossover but if someone wants to get in bad enough, they will.

    Both parties need to come together and come up with immigration reform at the Souther border - but I suspect it will require something terrible to happen for that to be a reality.

    Nothing you post will justify the murder of 30,000 innocent civilians (mostly women and children) over the course of 100 days. I know your Nazi genes are salivating for that number to hit a million.

    The sad thing is Hamas would repeat Oct 7 everyday even if "innocent palestinians" had to suffer so much , what is sadder is these supposedly innocent Palestinian people chose this manner by having Hamas represent them. In essence the Palestinian people chose Oct 7 and the consequences as well .

    Yep I’ve stated before that I’m part Mongolian shows how successful the Great Wall was. Further if you look at the history of the Great Wall it definitely wasn’t capable or even built for stopping small groups of people and historically small groups would move across it all the time.

    Anyone who has basic engineering knowledge should understand the problem of scale. Most things simply can’t be scaled up. It would be like saying because I can build a four story house out of wood then building a 100 story skyscraper should be as simple with bigger wood. It doesn’t work that way which is why we don’t build skyscrapers out of wood.

    Also sad that you don't have a clue. Palestinians haven't chosen Hamas in more than 15 years and at the time Hamas was talking about coexistence with Israel.
