el-al: "america is incompetent, we'd rather do it ourselves"
via the new york times . it seems that el-al, the national airline of israel, doesn't trust the bomb scanning wherewithall of the transportation security administration. they'd rather do things themselves.Michael Boyd, a former airline security official, said, "The Israelis know darn well that our bomb detecting equipment doesn't work and that the people in charge of airport security don't know what they're doing."
makes me want to jump in a plane right now. nice to see those tax dollars truly at at work.
