No, Israel Cannot Save the U.S. of A

Since the foiled underpants bomber on Christmas, advocates and friends of Israel as well as media talking heads have all argued that Israeli security techniques should be applied in the United States to make us all safe. Israeli Security agencies claim their sole airport had no airport security breach since 2002 when a passenger managed to take a firearm into a flight. CNN did a special on Israel behavioral profiling, bloggers are already bragging about how Israel airport security techniques can save the day and keep us all safe, “What Can Israel Teach the U.S. About Airport Security?” wrote Allison Kaplan Sommer. David Harris wrote “What Israel Can Teach the World About Airport Security”
Those articles had to be written by individuals who the luxury to use Israel’s only International airport Ben-Gurion. While Israel continues to deny Most Palestinians, the majority of Arabs and all citizens of Muslim nations from using their airport even for a transit. Discriminating against people and using collective punishment is the only way Israel survives and not because they are more intelligent than the hard working American security agencies. The few Palestinians who use the airport (mostly Jerusalem residence, and foreign passport holders) vow to never use Israel’s airports for the humiliation and mistreatment they are greeted with. The few Palestinians permitted to use the airport are always assigned a security escort that shadows them during their time at the Israeli airport and that’s one aspect of the brutal security at Ben-Gurion that Palestinians have to live with. Unlike Israel, the States has tens of airports and a dozen of international airports as well as a little timeless document called the constitution that has established checks and balance. There are also things like civil and human rights that Israel has little regards to.

While those practices certainly keep Israel safer, they are also bad for business as Israeli airports loses a lot of business for those discriminatory practices. Israel stops at nothing to address the symptoms of the deices rather than the actual disease itself–their illegal occupation. Israel fails to see that the real problem in its security is not in what we have in our underpants and shoes, it is what we have in our minds.

But that’s just my opinion, here is the shocker that gives the Israeli cheerleaders the Middle finger. Schiphol, Holland, is the airport where Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab boarded the Airbus 330 heading for Detroit is actually under a contract with an Israeli security company ICTS to provide security and screening. According to a News Story it is an Israeli company that is in charge of security a the Holland airport was established in 1982 and today employs 11,000 security personnel in 22 countries. So all of you dogmatic right wingers and forgetful liberals put that in your pipe and smoke on it for awhile.
