No less than 20 companies are being considered for the government tender to construct the underground concrete barrier that will encircle Israel’s border with Gaza, with the first section being 10km. in length. It is reported the physical barrier will be “several stories” underground as well as above ground, adding it is a great deal more than a simple concrete wall. In fact, the barrier will detect tunnel digging in the area and alert authorities. The price tag for this sophisticated project is over NIS 2 billion.
Being built in stages, the barrier will circle the entire 60 kilometers of Gaza. The local contractors will be working with foreign expects, with Ynet reporting some international companies have already refused to cooperate with Israel, explaining this is due to the sensitive nature of the players and the project involved.
Construction is set to begin in October 2016 and four Israeli companies will be involved.

it has to go 8 stories deep to be effective. a new prime minister will come and dismantle the whole thing in the name of peace, so has been the conduct of the Zionists.
As I’ve said before- once they’re digging, let them dig out all the land. Make Gaza an Island. Let it sail off into the sunset.
So the Zionist idol is now costing another NIS 2 Billion just to wall it off from Gaza. The ultimate galus Jew that is Zionism and its State, is slowly putting its entire people into a ghetto.
Yet people still worship this idol and are still in favor of the Zionists and their invasion of the holy land.
Had the Zionists not invaded, they could have used this money to feed needy Jews, and do so much more, not to mention the numerous halachic problems with Zionism. Instead, this money is siphoned off to that idol for what is anyways ultimately irrelevant. If (that’s if) they stop tunnels, the savages can attempt to shoot rockets instead, CH”V.
