And that’s only passengers… I’ve seen 50 people go to the airport to see someone off. I just don’t think that it would work here.

Americans (IMO) would not put up with Israeli type screening. Each airport would need a wailing wall.

In some ways their screening is less invasive than ours. Remember, they’re looking for behavioral anomalies, not looking into every grandmothers purse. And yes, their volume is smaller but scale wise (population/ travelers/ area) it’s on a par with us
