Where did border-fence funding go?
Aug. 24, 2008 12:00 AM
Regarding "Virtual-fence work in Arizona on hold" (Republic, Wednesday):
First, the federal government sets money aside for a "real" fence but doesn't build it.
Then, they come up with the "virtual" fence idea (thinking we'll buy this), now it's on hold.
The next thing they'll tell us is that they have just completed installing an "invisible" fence and that we should all just consider this whole fence issue closed.
By the way, where did the money go? - Mike Manley,Scottsdale

Months ago I signed a petition concerning this. I had to do some digging, as something similar to this was attached to the petition:
US To Help Egypt Build Border Fence
March 22, 2008 8:14 a.m. EST
Joseph Mayton - AHN Middle East Correspondent
Cairo, Egypt (AHN) - The United States has announced that it is planning to help Egypt build a border fence along the Gaza-Egypt border. Washington transferred $23 million worth of special aid to the North African nation as part of its assistance in locating smuggling tunnels.
Over the past few months, smuggling between Gaza and Egypt has garnered more attention in light of the Israeli economic blockade on the small Mediterranean strip of land. Israel is calling on Egypt to improve its crackdown on Palestinian smuggling, which the Jewish state says allows weapons to enter Gaza that are then used against southern Israel.
The planned fence between Egypt and Gaza will employ technology directed at preventing the fence from being damaged. This is in response to Palestinian militants who blew a hole in the current wall between the two nations that allowed hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to flock into Egypt late January and early February.
The American Army Corps of Engineers plans to send teams to Egypt to help push forward the border fence plans.
No timetable has been given yet as to when the wall will be constructed
While building the wall, the Americans also hope to help Egyptian security forces locate and destroy smuggling tunnels into Gaza
Israel has welcomed the move, saying that American participation will help end the movement of weapons into Gaza.

Truly Unbelievable. I really hate our government sometimes.
It is amazing how we can send all of this money to help other countries but we can't protect OUR people and build OUR own fence.Once abolish the God and the government becomes the God.*** -G.K. Chesterton from the book 'The Shack' by Wm. Paul Young-
