Illegal workers infiltrating from Africa into Israel
ISRAEL - Illegal workers infiltrating from Africa into Israel
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared what he calls the recent flood of illegal workers infiltrating from Africa into Israel "a concrete threat to the Jewish and democratic character of the country." The Jewish State has obviously gotten caught off guard by this new phenomenon and has yet to formulate Israel's immigration policy on this issue. Netanyahu said that most Western nations have already taken action to prevent similar dangers. Amongst the measures that local authorities are thinking of putting in place, a fence. Six months ago, Netanyahu visited the area near the border between Israel and Egypt in order to examine the possibility of an Israeli fence along the border to prevent infiltrations.
