But the practises used by El Al aren't really the same as the practices described in the article, and could be considered unconstitutional (and impractical) in the US or Canada: they interview every passenger, but generally classify Arab males as high-threat, and give them a more rigorous interview than westerners or jews. El Al security is unquestionably the most thorough in the world, and given the risk to their airlines they are justified in their processes. But I don't see the same system being accepted here.
