31. You call this main headline news?
JayJay ,   Israel   (07.29.11)
Ridiculous and trivial!
32. #25 - in your arrogant case...
William ,   Israel   (07.29.11)
I actually support the airport guards' actions.
33. #6.
Rochel ,   Los Angeles USA   (07.29.11)
Why should we?
34. security checks at the airport Ben Gurion
A.Lohrbächer ,   Weinheim Germany   (07.29.11)
Since 2003 I organize information tours to Israel for German journalists. The background of the project is the fact that we (in Europe/Germany) are still confronted with a widespread negative approach to Israel: So it is my aim to invite influential journalists for an “on the spot orientation” in Israel, where they have the opportunity + to meet as many different people as possible to learn more about the feelings and the convictions of the majority of Israelis (the mainstream!); + especially to get to know representatives of the young generation, to interview them about their various opinions about Israel, to discuss with them; + to get to know the convincing hospitality throughout the country, + to get to know projects which are working for integration and peaceful coexistence. In the end we had to go through the security check at the airport. over the years many participants got the impression that there is a chaotic procedure, that they are treated not as guests but as criminals. Any complaints with the responsible persons were rejected. More than a half of the journalists will not return again because of this experience. Nobody denies security checks but we don't accept such a behaviour.
35. There is a divinity that shapes our ends-Shakespeare
Alan ,   SA   (07.29.11)
36. Doesn't make any sense
Matt ,   UK   (07.29.11)
Why the hell would any right minded individual go to Israel in the first place. So many beautiful places in the world and she went there? Doesn't add up.
37. 26 - Im scared to death to go there to vist my grandparents

41. Find the correct target
Beary White ,   Norway   (07.29.11)
I have asked the security to put their fingers up in the ass of some leftist norwegian journalists from the norwegian radio/TV, when they arrive..and they just smiled :-) so hopefully "mission acomplish"..

44. Stupid, stupid, stupid and one more stupid
Khan ,   U.K.   (07.29.11)
How true you are, spoken like a true believer. National introspection won't even save this kangaroo. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid and more Stupid. Being photogenic has never been a crime but this malicious use and invasion of someone's else's property should net a good public spanking of all those involved, hey but wait, do we know who's all involved? Glory be we have the photos, stupid, stupid, stupid and more stupid, just can't say it enough.
45. #36 Have you been to Israel, Matt?

Israel you're F-----g Up and what was the demise of the Roman Empire, I believe MORALITY. A MORAL CODE OF CONDUCT and treating your fellow humans fairly.

Now not a great place to visit and wouldn't want to live there.

57. #1 SPLIT/SCHIZO/WES
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.30.11)
Let's make it a twofer, the place gets a paint job, you get a brain
58. #4 split/schizo/wes
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.30.11)
I agree, then you're just as rotten as your father and the rest of your family tree
59. Lucky it wasn't the TSA in the USA
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.30.11)
She would have had to remove her bra, if she were 95 with cancer, wearing a diaper, that too would have been removed Recently they've become concerned with bombs concealed withing breast implants Infants checked to see if the crap in their diapers were real, not to mention the 6 year child that was felt up by a TSA agent In this day and age, after all the planes that were Jihacked by Arabs, Twin Towers, Pentagon, subway bombings in England & Spain, nobody is going to take any chances Easy enough to conceal a bomb in the circuitry of a laptop computer or in a camera, which you can point & then shoot a real bullet They even have pistols contained in walkign sticks Just remember one thing, if you're on the plane, if it goes boom, you too will become a fatality GREG: Laptop switches are tiny easily overlooked, I am certain you had a recharger, so why complain, use the charger, of course in your case, you prefer to complain, that's your usual S.O.P.
60. #26 Ameridane - Great Idea
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.30.11)
They can take the course in the USA, receiving instructions from the TSA, they'll really show them the ropes In the USA, if you give the security agents a hard time, they call the cops and you're off to the slammer, with a nice juicy fine, thrown in for good measure
