I think both of those nut jobs boarded aircraft outside of the USA, so the domestic TSA can't really be blamed for that. As an Israli anti-terrorist expert pointed out, the next terrorist act will be like a backpack carried into a mall or other heavily-traficked public area and detonated. As someone already pointed out in another thread, the domestic security system is 'reactionary' based, instead of aggresively looking for threats. Try flying out of an Israel and you will see what real airport security should be!! You won't get anywhere near a terminal without a thorugh screening of you, your papers, luggage. |

I've been to Israel (before 9/11) and agree with you on Israeli security measures ... they don't mess around, and for good reason.

In both cases, you had to prove you were supposed to be there. I had no problem with it then and I have no problem with it now. I get the argument about giving up civil liberties and all. I really do. But that's not your airport, and it's not your airplane, and there are other people to consider, so at least in my opinion, much like entering a 'closed' military base, when you decide you want to fly you give up a few civil liberties for the needs of the many. It pisses me off that everybody doesn't think that way... |

If you have a closed mind, you might actually see a plane wreck. But I surely don't see one. |

If a person wearing a bomb and exploding it to kill and maim innocent men, women & children in schools, markets, businesses, or anywhere that people will congregate, or driving a vehicle to the same type of place to do the same thing isn't proof enough that terrorism is real, then I would love to hear your definition of it. |
