Dershowitz talks airport security
As I frequently mention, my move to Israel was made from the United States and, as such, I tend to regularly refer to the opinions of Americans when talking about Israel. Today is one of those times as I want to point out a fantastic blog entry posted by leading American attorney and stalwart defender of Israel Alan Dershowitz.
The post talks about Dershowitz’ dire prediction that, G-d Forbid, Islamic terrorists may well succeed this year in blowing up a civilian airliner. He notes that they have already twice proved that suicide bombers can get through security. And those are only the successful security bypasses that we know about. It is a scary, but necessary to hear, analysis that Dershowitz gives and he suggests some solutions that, while expensive, will greatly reduce the danger that thousands of fliers face every day and are relatively simple to implement.
Give this a read and I highly recommend all of Dershowitz’ works.
