This is nothing new at MXP. I've seen it at MXP in 2007, 2008 and 2009. It's nice to see that the Italian security "thinkers" believe that my life is sort of more valuable when flying to the US, Israel or the UK than when I am flying to any of the other two dozens or so countries I fly to from MXP.
It is not an Italian rule it is a US and Israeli rule. Why do you think T5 was built at FCO.

Ciao,
