Mass Exodus/Shopping Trip
Images
Thousands of residents of the Gaza Strip crossed the border into Egypt today after gunmen blew up a border wall. Palestinians had been stuck in Gaza under an Israeli blockade that prevented them from getting food, fuel, and other supplies. (The blockade was in response to rocket attacks from Gaza in recent weeks.) Think of this as a mass exodus shopping trip.
What do you think of border walls like this one? Are they ever effective? Should the US be building them on our borders?
