Why can't we have Israeli-type airport security?

They are doing something right, right? The airlines and airports of the nation that is the most hated by Muslim terrorists from evey corner of the globe,  is the nation that has the least trouble with these flying scum. So, why are we not getting the Israeli know-how or better still hire Israeli consultants to train Canadians as airport security guards?

Spending huge amounts of money on body scanners, that our Federal Transport Ministry are now planning to purchase, will probably not do very much to lessen  the waits and woes at airports, like the ones experienced last week by this Calgary woman. Our Canadian govt should start looking seriously at engaging the Israeli govt to teach us the fine points in the security of our aircraft and airports by making us more dependent  on human perceptions, human instincts and profiling rather than on scanners and machines. A determined murderer who is not afraid to die will always find ways to beat machines, because machines are easy to read if you are so inclined.  Humans are not.  Train humans and rely less on machines to defeat terrorism.

As the writer of this article says: "Do as the Israelis do: Think."   Absolutely right  lady!
