Explosives detection dogs are the most effective and flexible solution for such clearing tasks. Dogs are available from many companies even in Israel See a video example here: http://www.diag-nose.com/videos/explosives-detection-dogs-video.html

This should immediately be brought to the attention of the UN so that Goldstone can investigate this crime!!!!!!

because a few wires and batteries were found in a package. Give me a break! The service is bad enough without them making things worse.

That's a sick thing to say. Anyway, they are working just fine (I just called my local branch) just not giving out parcels unti lsecurity personnel have been and checked the mail - I'm sure they'll be using sophisticated means. You really are a sorry individual.

Better to stop the mail for a day than be sorry... Why doesn't the post office have a modern security system to detect problems? Imagine how much a stoppage is causing businesses that rely on the mail.

The Israel postal service is excellent. Its reliable,fast & inexpensive. Just because you couldnt make a go of living in Israel, you dont have to bash it at every opportunity you get. Shame on you.

I received my mail today which was delivered to my home mailbox. The postal service of receiving registered mail was stopped. This was to protect the citizens.

anyone in Israel isn't worried enough about terrorism...
