As controversy swirls over the use of full-body scanners at U.S. airports, the former security director for Israel’s national airline says airline security in America is an “illusion” and the U.S. should profile passengers to ensure safety. It's time to admit that our common security requires a clear understanding of where the terrorist threat is coming from. It is coming from the followers of Radical Islam. We must throw out the phoney political correct proceedures that require every air traveler to be searched so we don't offend anyone. It's time to remove the blinders of political correctness that weakens our efforts in providing security for air travelers and concentrate our efforts on those followers of Radical Islam who, by their own words and actions, want to kill us. It's time for America to "Profile for Our Protection." Isaac Yeffet was security chief for El Al Israel Airlines, which requires every passenger to be interviewed by a well-trained agent before check-in. Agents then perform electronic body scans or searches only on those who arouse suspicions during the interview. El Al is considered the most secure airline in the world, and has experienced only one hijacking in its history. Yeffet told CNSNews that American airlines should use “exactly the same system” as El Al. “Yes, profiling,” he said. “Every passenger has to be interviewed by security. We have to be polite. We know how to ask questions.” The U.S. Transportation Safety Administration “wants to tell me we now have security in this country — this is an illusion,” Yeffet said. “Technology in general can never replace a qualified and well-trained human being.” The El Al approach is in sharp contrast to procedures in America, which call for body scanning every passenger, and patting them down if they opt out of the scan or if something suspicious shows up on the images. Yeffet said it is unnecessary to search “innocent people,” and security should instead focus on determining if a passenger is suspicious by intensively interviewing them. “We at El Al have used the hand/body search for so many years, but we did it only to suspicious passengers that were interviewed by us.” Opponents of adopting El Al’s security approach in the United States say it would violate passengers’ civil rights by allowing some to be more intensely scrutinized than others, CNSNews reported. But Yeffet says the pre-flight interviews have enabled El Al to identify “the right people that are trying to blow up an aircraft or commit suicide.” Yes, my fellow Americans, it's time to rid ourselves of the chains of Political Correctness that only hampers and restricts our security efforts, as well as violated the 4th Amendment rights of free Americans, and start using common sense to protect our air passengers. It's time to admit that the enemy are the followers of RADICAL ISLAM, not 80 year old nuns and three year old children. The time has come for America to "PROFILE FOR OUR PROTECTION."

Personally I'd rather show my balls than get the third degree from some government agent prying into my business. However I just found out they don't screen Cargo shipped on commercial airplanes. So if they won't even do that, they shouldn't be seeing my balls or interrogating me for 20 minutes. The last two attempted attacks were from a half white/half jamacian guy with a British hame, and a black guy. The second largest terrorist attack in US history was a white guy form the midwest. Just pulling out brown people is stupid, and won't do shit. We should just go back to pre 9-11 standards. Small weapons won't be able to take over a plane anymore.
And then there's this: Colleen LaRose, arrested in California earlier this year for conspiring to commit a terrorist act on behalf of Al Qaeda.
To trade your rights for perceived security. A republic, if you can keep it. Now not so much. 8D
