Post# of 123676
In November 1989 the Berlin Wall came crashing down. One of the most iconic border walls in human history had fallen. The world’s people cheered, perhaps none so loudly as those in the United States. But, within five years the United States, under the direction of President Bill Clinton, would start building its own border wall at the US-Mexico border. That wall has been under intermittent construction for the past 25 years. It is currently about 800-miles of fortified structure along a 2000-mile border. The US-Mexico border wall severs some of the richest wildlife communities and oldest human settlements in North America.
President Clinton’s wall was limited to the cities of El Paso and San Diego, where poor farmers displaced by NAFTA had begun crossing in increasing numbers in the mid-1990s. The wall did not stop desperately poor migrants, it re-routed them into harsh terrain in the Southwest, where many thousands died as a result of the Clinton administration’s “prevention-by-deterrence” border policy.
