Default That\'s Why A Fence

CA: "Suicide bombs require maybe $250 worth of household ingredients (when the IDF says they've discovered "grocery lists" for bombs, they probably mean it). A hundred such bombs a year would require 100 bombers and $25,000. Tight money and more troops therefore won't prevent anything."

Another Fence however would prevent suicide bombing in Israel.

The Gaza Fence has worked with 100% success: zero suicide bombers have crossed out of Gaza into Israel since that fence was erected (unless numbers have changed in the couple weeks or so since I read that figure).

So maybe more troops and cutting off funding can't stop suicide bombers, but a fence and troops sure can.
