Problem is affirmative action rentacops that the TSA has become. Israeli security personnel are highly trained, intelligent folks. The ethnic profile of such a TSA would be > 90% white. Cry racism, and there goes your competent force.
- seehafer 13y agoI'm not an expert, but I doubt if you pulled from FBI agents, CIA operatives, Special Forces, etc. that the ethnic profile would be > 90% white.

I wouldn't bet my house on this prediction, but I would bet a few hundred $. For one, maybe the competence required is not that high. But you are surely wrong about Special Forces. They are overwhelmingly white.

- unhappyhippie 13y agoAs someone who has had a harrowing experience at an Israeli airport, I would dispute the claim that they are highly trained or even intelligent. I don't even want to recount my experience at Tel Aviv, its much milder than OP's but it spoils my mood just thinking about it.
