Faced with a surge in migration from the Middle East and North Africa, two European countries are exploring the possibility of erecting towering steel security fences along parts of their borders, similar to Israel's barrier with Egypt.
Hungary and Bulgaria have made preliminary inquiries about buying the Israeli-designed fences, according to an Israeli business source who declined to be named due to the sensitivity of the discussions.
Both EU countries are beefing up their borders to deter migrants, many of them refugees from wars, who are seeking to use them as gateways to richer countries further north and west, particularly Germany.
But moves to throw up such barriers - which could be around 5-6 meters (15-20 feet) high, topped with razor wire and equipped with cameras and motion sensors - would evoke memories of Cold War-era divisions in Europe and exasperate EU officials who say they would not help to solve the crisis.

Rich w/ irony.
The Hungarian Prime Minister ain’t no joke. He drew a hard line in the sand and his parliament is giving him more powers to kick out the migrants. It’s that fricking Merkel, popping off at the mouth who’s to blame for all this.
The Eastern Europeans are the only ones left on that continent that don’t hate themselves.
Here’s a suggestion for the Euros: Oblige these “refugees” to convert to Christianity — or at the very least to renounce Islam.
If they did that en masse they’d amazingly find that 90% of their problems would go away without the white man’s help at all.
Foolish Europeans.
Fences don’t work, as any democrat could tell them.

We need a wall here "similar to Israel's barrier with Egypt" - - for our Southern border with mexicolon.
Massive walls would be better.
Sadly, most Republicans would tell them the same thing.
Walls stifle acts of love.
the wall Jeb says is impractical. fool.
Don't tell that to the two queers in Kentucky trying to get a marriage license.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

As have several Arab states who've already constructed them.
Exiled Bolshevik Leon Trotsky referred to the Comintern conference that acknowledged the supremacy and leadership of Stalin and the Soviet 'revolution' as "the liquidation congress". The largest nations in the EU appear to be trying to drag the rest of the EU members into liquidation by submission to Islamization and shariah 'law'.
