Hungary & Bulgaria Consider Buying Israeli Fences to Block Borders 
-------------------------------------------------------------------


 
Reuters is reporting that Hungary and Bulgaria have reportedly made
inquiries about buying Israeli-designed fences to reinforce their
borders. The chair of the United Nations Commission of Inquiry, Paulo
Pinheiro, spoke out about the refugee crisis in Syria Thursday.

Paulo Pinheiro: "Civilians are suffering the unimaginable, as the world
stands witness. Without stronger efforts to bring parties to the peace
table, ready to compromise, current trends suggest that the Syrian
conflict, and the killing and destruction it wreaks, will carry for the
foreseeable future."
