I hope America does this.
Israel takes it survival seriously. We could learn from her.
And there’s nothing wrong with declaring people who want to slaughter you “beasts.”
Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to build a 15ft fence to surround the whole of Israel, saying that the country must “protect itself from wild beasts”.
The Israeli Prime Minister appeared to use the extraordinary phrase – which has also been translated as “predators” – to describe both Palestinians and the people of neighbouring Arab states.
Mr Netanyahu was speaking during a tour of a newly-completed security fence along the border with Jordan near the southern Red Sea city of Eilat.
“In the end in Israel, as I see it, there will be a fence like this that surrounds the whole country,” he said.
“I’ll be told, ‘this is what you want, to protect the villa?’ The answer is yes. Will we surround all of the State of Israel with fences and barriers? The answer is yes,” he said.
“In the environment we live in, we need to protect ourselves from wild beasts.”
