I guess the US will have to rethink the direction of it's intended fence and head downwards.

Um no, we have tunnel sensors now and no one has tunneled under the new walls who's foundations are built far under the ground and cemented in.

This is why we need to be forever vigilant at the border. We need security there because America is still worth protecting.



I can see it now if Biden should win. He will film a "60 Minutes" segment down at the border where he will be surrounded by dreamers, DACA people, asylum seekers, refugees, a slew of children that were forced to endure time in a Trump cage but not an Obama one and 11 million illegals that he gave amnesty to and they will each line up with a golden sledge hammer to take a whack at Trumps racist wall...



UGH.

It's time to take a page from Israel's playbook. Whenever they find a tunnel (terrorists use them to sneak bombs into schools, cafes, hospitals, etc) they send troops in to clear the tunnel (shooting anyone they find) and then they blow them up. Done!

“Incomplete tunnel”. That means we found it before it was useable OP. If you need more help I’m available.

We have the same issue as the Israeli military, but perhaps on a far larger scale. Their solution is to install tunnel detection sensors. We do something similar.
