It was a of solidarity against hate. Offensive graffiti here in new york this weekend when passengers on a subway noticed antisemitic messages scrawled all over their subway car, they came together in defiance. They started wiping off the hatefu messages, one passenger recording it all on his cell phone. In that interview tonight, the president talked about the dangers of drug cartels operating in mexico. One of the things he sees as a solution is building a border wall, often citing the experience of israel. There walls have become a way of life, for better or worse, depending on who you ask. Matt bradley takes a look behind israels walls. The wall will be successful, and if you think walls dont work, all you have to do is ask israel. Reporter and israel would know. Since 2002 americas strongest mideast ally built hundreds of mi gaza strip, egypt and planning one with jordan, turning israel into Something Like a walled fortress. Definitely the security barrier, the fences, wall components, they all work in tandem in order to prevent terrorist attacks against israel. Reporter trumps would be different from israels but share many challenges. Suicide attacks have dropped separating them from mostly palestinian west bank. Like all walls, there are two sides. Palestinians say it wasnt about the barrier but their own political decisions. This used to be very economic prosperous and now totally devastated.

Not in the middle ajs with cages and walls around the reporter for thousands of palestinians, every day, its as crude and dangerous as climbing a rope and getting through a hole. This mans house is surrounded by the barrier and hemmed in by israeli settlers. If trump buildses a wall, mexicans will suffer just like palestinians, says. Benjamin netanyahu praised the wall idea, comparing it from theirs. Many israelis say all the barriers keep them safe. If we dont have this fence between us and other boefrders, we would love lives. Reporter on the other side, palestinians say the burden has fallen mostly on them. Matt bradley, nbc news, in the west bank.
