That's my answer to the question in the title of this post by Joel Dreyfuss.
Dreyfuss questions whether or not we Americans are really interested in substituting the personal scrutiny and profiling of air travellers employed by the Israelis for the naked image scanners and intrusive "pat downs" used by TSA.
I say yes, let's do the obvious profiling that would actually protect us, rather than the fake, ineffective but "even-handed" scanning and/or pat downs we all now have to suffer through.
I don't want to get blown up any more than anyone else, but law enforcement works best when it can use all of its tools. Profiling is a valid tool. We should not take the best tool out of the TSA's hands. The current TSA methodology is a poor substitute which has been foisted upon us by political correctness.
