    It's hard to beat Israeli technology!

    Israel’s always on the cutting edge with good ideas


    I particularly like the 'spare' seat announcement!!

    TEL AVIV, Israel - The Israelis are developing an airport security device that eliminates the privacy concerns that come with full-body scanners.
    It's an armored booth you step into that will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have on your person .
    Israel sees this as a win-win situation for everyone, with none of this crap about racial profiling. It will also eliminate the costs of long and expensive trials.

    You're in the airport terminal and you hear a muffled explosion. Shortly thereafter, an announcement: "Attention to all standby passengers, El Al is pleased to announce a seat available on flight 670 to London .
    Shalom!"

    I can see NO downside to that.
    Individual rights are protected only as long as they don't conflict with the desires of the state .
