Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
Nothing personal. Airport security humiliates everyone. It’s the American way!
Gee,I wonder if there are any scrupulous examinations being conducted at Israeli airports.We can only thank God that she lived to tell of her time in one of our "gas chambers".
Hah!
My kids love that thing! They call it the “Puffer Machine” and I have to stand in the one line that has the Puffer Machine whenever we travel.

Welcome to America! If we were allowed to profile, you would have been waived right through. Direct your complaints to the ACLU and CAIR.
Doing my worse Myron Cohen impersonation:
'She's a Doktah and she talks like this? Oy, veh.'
God,I remember Myron Cohen.He was my parents' favorite comedian when I was growing up during the 60's.He was FUNNY!
Summertime and puffer machines...it makes the mind whirl!

The Israeli's and the Europeans have far better security then we do. There, they 'interview' passengers by someone trained to detect something out of the ordinary (body language, nervousness, etc.). Then, if they suspect something, you are given a second interview and a much more intensive scrutiny. Most of the security people in the US are low paid and poorly trained.
That he was. I remember him from the Ed Sullivan show. My favorite joke of his was the one of the Jewish businessmen talking in Miami, both now long retired.
"So how did you come to retire to Miami?"
"Well, after 50 years in the clothing business, I was flooded out, collected the insurance money and moved for the warm weather. and You?"
"Similar story. 35 years I ran a deli, on east Fifth. Three years ago, wouldn't ya know, a fire wipes me out and here I am."
"A fire? wow that is too bad."
Long pause, then the second man asks:
"one thing, I am curious about. How do you start a flood?"
She can just stay home if she doesn’t like our security. And something tells me this whiny public protest will have earned her a special spot on the Israeli airport/airline security watch lists. I hear they don’t take any crap over there.
In some countries you are required to hand over expensive camera equipment to armed thugs as a show of good faith. Here they just steal them out of your luggage painlessly!
Grow up, Doctor. I’m a Jew and a retired US naval officer. I’ve been hand-patted, spread-eagled, and made to stand in an air-blast sniffer chamber when flying commercial. You sound like the whiney, hand-wringing liberals I had to resign from my synagogue to escape.
Funny that comedians back then could make an entire family (Mom, Dad, eight kids) all howl with laughter and not use a single bad word or sex scenario.
I watched Rodney Dangerfield on TV all the time and he was hilarious. I saw him perform in concert and he was unbelievably raunchy.
I don’t know why anyone thinks Rosie O’Donnell is a comedian. I’ve never found her to be funny at all. Just gross.
Jackie Mason is the greatest of them all!
Who knows maybe someone got a report that terrorist were planning on using forged Israeli passports to get into the US in the belief that security would not be as focused on Israeli citizens. Or it could just be the TSA people being their usual charming and welcoming selves.
