Air Israel uses college-educated, multi-lingual, trained professionals that pursue a direct line of questioning and are trained to observe and interpret a subject's responses. That is where they excel. Not on picking out Arabic names. It's where did you get the VISA, why in a secondary country, why a one-way ticket on a temporary VISA, what are you going for, who are you traveling with, why did you pay cash for your ticket, why is your passport new, etc. We use minimum wage, GED equivalents. No wonder our best answer to a shoe bomber (who looked like any other black American, but stood out like a sore thumb fitting the "classic" traveling terrorist questioning) is "Everyone take off your shoes".

I'll bet you don't get the irony of being you: I mean, aside from your habit of just making up ridiculous false crap about other people as you go (okay, we get that reality or truth doesn't matter to you), watching you hating Muslims, but then seeing you start a thread, your point being you using a foreign-born Muslim as complete and final validation of the US healthcare system <vbg> As I said, no, I've not seen anyone in the US propose to profile as Air Israel does. Wish we would. Mostly it seems "we" want to profile based upon religion and whatever name a person gives. Because some of us think, "they" are all alike. In other words, there is profiling against "terrorists" (the El Al approach) and profiling against, "Muslims!" or "Arabs!". I'll take the first approach any day.

BTW My point of using the King of Saudi Arabia had nothing to do with the fact he's muslim (other than he may be traveling with one or more wives and a belief that no one shall touch any of them in his presence) and everything to do with the man having limitless resources and the ability to choose any country in the world for treatment. With the muslim sensitivity filter on extra high you are unable to see that.

And yes, I know your point about the Saudi king wasn't about him being Muslim. That's the "irony of being you" part <g>

Give everyone who boards a Tazer. People will be on their best behavior. There are probably more good guys on the plane than bad guys. At least the kids on the flight will be more inclined to behave. It's not just Mom who's gonna taze ya if ya don't shut up, that big old lady 2 seats back is gonna let ya have it.

If every woman showed up in a string bikini and flip flops and every man in a SPEEDO and flip flops, I bed those pat downs would go lickety split.

Yes, Dell, I am all in favor of profiling terrorists. There isn't much point to profiling "Muslims"

They investigated, seems it was left behind after a previous flight by some police officer. What's the emoticon for "shaking one's head in disbelief"? Or maybe, "Gawd help us"

OK I should have used ALL who have arabic names as opposed to Muslims. Cause Muhamad Al Kalim the Christian should be included as well. So let's leave the word MUSLIM off the table and instead insert ARABIC. I'm good with that. Barack Obama could be one of those names LOL

But it's also interesting to note what can be left on an airplane after a flight, and nobody even apparently looks on the floor. You do realize that ammunition can be used to cause blasts, right?
