Let's be honest. Israel has one large airport - Ben Gurion. They probably, on an average day, see as many passengers as the Greater Cincinnati Airport sees in an hour or two.

I've flown in out of Ben Gurion on several occasions. The lines are long and move slowly. If you tried to do that at a large metro aiport, you would need to arrive perhaps 6 to 8 hours before the flight. (Just my opinion on the time)

You think lines don't move slowly in USA airports now? I can remember when you only had to be at the airport in time to grab your ticket and get on board. So, yes, let's be honest. Israel keeps terrorist off of their planes. We don't as witnessed by the many dry runs terrorist have made since TSA started their tyranny, courtesy of the US government, in the airports.

TSA has never stopped one terrorist and they won't until profiling becomes the norm. Sooner or later there will be another airborne attack and when it comes TSA will say they aren't tough enough and want to up the stakes once again.

What is occurring now in airports is tyranny and a violation of the 4th amendment and is completely unnecessary.
