A Wall that Works Wonders--in Hungary

‘They don’t even try’: Hungary’s new border fence called ‘spectacular success’
http://www.worldtribune.com/they-dont-e ... r-success/

"Skeptics who believe a border wall will not stop illegals from entering the United States may want to look at what’s happening in Hungary. On the day its border fence was completed, the influx of illegals entering Hungary went down from 6,353 one day to 870 the next. For the remainder of that month, illegal border crossings were steadily below 40 per day, officials said. Border patrols prevent dozens of crossings every day and catch migrants who make it into Hungary within the first few miles of the border, according to authorities.

“They don’t even try,” a local border guard told The Daily Caller News Foundation. “We haven’t had a Syrian in six months.” Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s pledge to stop illegals from flowing into the country appears to be a spectacular success. Hungary’s 96-mile long, 14-foot tall double-line fence includes several layers of razor-wire capable of delivering electric shocks. The barrier features cameras, heat sensors and loudspeakers ready to tell migrants they’re about to break Hungarian law if they as much as touch the fence, the April 30 Daily Caller report said.

Nearly every police officer in Hungary is part of a rotation to monitor the border fence at all times. Temporary military bases house the police while they do their rotation. Additionally, Hungary will train and pay more than 1,000 volunteers to deploy as “border hunters”. Illegals who are caught are arrested and dropped off on the Serbian side of the fence. They don’t get a chance to apply for asylum unless they do so at a “transit zone” where they are held in housing containers while their cases get processed, the Daily Caller report said.

In September 2015, thousands of migrants streamed across the border every day as they made their way north to Austria, Germany and Scandinavia. “It was an invasion,” Laszlo Toroczkai, the mayor of Asotthalom, told the Daily Caller. “Illegal immigration is a crime in a normal country. It’s not a normal thing to break into a country.” “By the mid-year it was well beyond 100,000 people who came across,” said Zoltan Kovacs, a spokesman for the Hungarian government. “You should at least have the ability to handle what’s going on.”

Kovacs added: “You might not like it, it’s not a nice thing, but … the only way to stop illegal border crossings is [to] first build a fence, man it, equip it, and also, in parallel, build up your capabilities in terms of legal confines, legal circumstances to be able to handle what is coming.”"

Here's the difference between the USA and Hungary--look at the wall. I'm sure the entire thing cost about as much as one mile of the proposed American wall... The difference between getting the job done right, and getting the job done--to make money.

One needs to understand that there is considerable objection to building an effective wall along the Mexican-American border. Simply stated, latter-day gadiantons in the United States have been fomenting and encouraging illegal immigration at least since George W. Bush was POTUS; that's when I caught on to what he was doing to facilitate the flood of illegal immigrants. Both Bush and Obama hamstrung the Border Patrol and did their best to make border security and immigration controls as ineffective as possible. By way of one example, in 2014 Obama stated his intent to ignore federal immigration law passed by Congress and by executive order grant some 5 million illegal immigrants a 3 year stay of deportation, work permits and various government benefits including social security.

I read in the 4 April 2016 edition of THE NEW AMERICAN that "Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has described the orchestrated refugee tsunami as a tool of a "treasonous conspiracy" to destroy nationhood."

Elsewhere in that same article I read "At this point, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East are all in the cross hairs of internationalists, who are exploiting the refugee crisis to build up supranational institutions at the regional and global level to smash national sovereignty and even nationhood, to build up the power of government generally, and to destabilize societies. If left unchecked and unexposed, the refugee crisis will serve as a powerful tool to push the world ever closer to "global governance", with a great deal of pain and misery along the way." It is my firm conviction that the United States is also in the cross hairs of internationalists/globalists, who are intent on making America subservient to regional and world government.

Yeah, as seen in the photo, it's a pretty simple and very, very inexpensive wall. It really wouldn't take anywhere near the money "the govt" wants to spend on it.

"Chaos, yay!!" yell the GRs.

Look what happened to (West) Germany when the Berlin Wall "fell". Like that wasn't planned...
