Yes, indeed it does and according to
http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/857245.html :
“No successful hijacking has occurred on a plane leaving the airport, and no attack has taken place inside the terminal since the 1970s, though Israel and planes entering and leaving the country are prime targets for Islamic extremists.”
That’s our basic problem. We are so afraid of offending people that we sacrifice our protection for political correctness. Our enemies know this and they take full advantage.
Every country should follow the Israeli model. Israel has far more experience and expertise when it comes to terror. They know how to handle it. For them, it’s far more important to be safe than it is to worry about someone’s feelings.
