Question

I wonder why, think they know something we dont?

Answer 1

Makes perfect sense. Iraq is a warzone, so good citizens flee.
Now the Saudis have an 'illegal alien' problem.

I'm sure they're very grateful to the US.

Answer 2

Fences are stupid besides, they're way too consumer-friendly to recover from or around. I bear in strategies whilst Penn and Teller employed some unlawful immigrants on their Showtime instruct to construct a top reproduction of the fence that dubya had ordered. whilst they have been achieved development it, barbed cord and all, they have been then timed to be certain how briskly they'd a million: leap it, 2: Dig below it, 3: shrink by way of it. all of them finished in under 3 minutes. Plus they'd consistently only stroll around besides. No quite, you think of somebody is going to %. up and practice to bust their butts in direction of the barren area and danger their existence to objective and stay in the U.S. and get to the border and notice a fence and bypass "Oh, darn. wager I gotta bypass lower back now!"

Answer 3

Fences along the Saudi-Iraq border could be easily destroyed or covered by desert storms. Thus, it is not practical to build fences thereon.

They proposed building the fence to cut down on combatants crossing back and forth between SA and Iraq. http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20060928/saudi_fence_060928/20060929?hub=World&s_name=.
