"The Americans have taken the lead in deploying the latest technology. We should have an international agreement that those kind of standards are employed across the world to make sure there are no gaps in the system."
Most of the so-called "technology" being used is crap. ETP has been mothballed. ETD is hardly ever used. Nude-O-Scopes offer perverted views of passengers and little else. X-rays have been mistakenly used to identify explosives. The Americans have their heads up their posteriors when it comes to airport security.
