The problem with security fences/walls is that they keep you in as well as them out. Freedom?
My freedom of movement is a limited by the threat of terrorist attacks - not by any fence. So what exactly is your point and aren't we veering off-topic?

Not to steer away from the present topic but I often think about how all this effects the younger generation in Israel. It really must be hell in some ways.
My children, ranging in ages from 20 down to 7, are all fine, thank you, and better informed of realities than the children who were born 10+years earlier and thought that bringing the world's worst terrorists in from Tunis and giving them automatic weapons was a good idea.

That's not to say there aren't problems. There are 10's of thousands of traumatized Israelis who have been directly and indirectly affected by terrorist events over the last 2 decades, with temporary and permanent physical and psycological scars.
