Just remember, it can be worse. Try flying El Al, or most any flight to Israel. You get questioned - in depth - by a uniformed soldier carrying an Uzi. And likely as not the soldier is female, and maybe 20 years old.

That's probably punishment for the way they drive in Israel - literally on the sidewalks in places!

Seriously, one does hope there is a real reason to do all that security. For one, it's expensive.
