MARC STEINER: Welcome to The Real News Network. I’m Marc Steiner. Great to have you all with us.

As many of you know, we interviewed Will Parrish about his article on the Israeli defense contractor Elbit Systems, that designed and is running some of the most sophisticated surveillance systems on our border with Mexico.

The reality is, it’s not only dangerous to our future civil liberties and freedom in this country, but once again becomes an invasive threatening presence on Native land.

It spans US and Mexico, and the border surveillance are dividing this nation – are having a huge negative effect on those people.
