airport security

in comparison to Israel's airport security to the U.S.
"Despite facing dozens of potential threats each day, the security set-up at Israel's largest hub, Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion International Airport, has not been breached since 2002, when a passenger mistakenly carried a handgun onto a flight. How do they manage that?"

In short, they look at people's eyes and are highly trained to recognize suspicious behavior. Instead of being trained at searching through luggage, profiling, and hoping their shifts get over shortly so they can pick up Jimmy from the sitters in time to make it home for Price is Right.

To summarize:
"Even today with the heightened security in North America, they will check your items to death. But they will never look at you, at how you behave. They will never look into your eyes ... and that's how you figure out the bad guys from the good guys."

Great story, check it out!
