They are usually pretty good here, but someone really, really lost control. They did not even bother to ETD my bag of equipment, which gets done at 90% of check points. And should. I'll post a photo sometime. So, not only was the security a farce, they were no even pretending.

Lots of running, small computers back through, though.

I have not seen a mess like this since the new security area was finished.
Americans have to visit Israel and demand Israeli-style security, not the jack-boot Mickey Mouse pantomime nonsense we have in the US.

In Israel, they don't do this. See my post on a typical Israeli airport experience
