being an officer in the airforce in israel is considered something of prestige so this might be the reason his cargo bag wasn't scrutinized but i wonder what would have happened if he landed in america with that weapon, and it was discovered by customs in the US?

Wonder if his rank in the IAF would be taken in to consideration or he would be slapped with a felony and made an example of?

Or would the weapon vanish like netanyahu's security details' weapons that time he came for a visit....
