Anyone at the security checkpoint that knows how to spell would be able to see that it was simply a typo. Perhaps with so many of our security people under-educated that might be asking too much. However, when I encountered a similar problem as a customer service supervisor the security folks would confer with the airline (me) and the passenger would be subject to secondary screening. Just the same as if you had no proper id on you and wanted to check in. You could, you just got the four-star treatment at the checkpoint.
The last Israeli airliner that was hijacked was about 30 years ago and went to Entebbe. Israel rescued the passengers and killed most of the bad guys.I am a white boy and my wife is from Mexico but could easily be mistaken for being Arab. Each time we go through security at Heathrow or Gatwick she is singled out. However, the last time we went through security in Madrid I was singled out for extra security. I have absolutely no problem with this. They are profiling and it works.
