Praise For Israeli Border Fence

MK Yaakov “Ketzaleh” Katz won praise Thursday for pushing the construction of a fence along the Egyptian border even when the plan sounded unrealistic to many. Ketzaleh toured the fence on Thursday afternoon in the course of his work as head of the Knesset Committee on Foreign Workers.

IDF officers accompanying the Knesset tour praised Ketzaleh for pushing the idea of a fence for years in response to the massive infiltration of illegal entrants – an issue that many other politicians ignored at the time.

The fence also aimed to put a stop to widespread drug smuggling on the southern border. According to security officials, the project has been a success in that area as well. While drug smuggling used to take place an estimated 65 times a month, police believe it now occurs a mere eight times per month.

Even MK Nitzan Horowitz of the far-left Meretz party, whose political views differ wildly from Ketzaleh's, stated that the project Ketzaleh had thought up years ago – which had initially sounded “delusional,” Horowitz said – is quickly becoming a reality.
