**TEL AVIV, Israel — The Israelis are developing an airport security device that eliminates the privacy concerns that come with full-body scanners. It’s an armored booth you step into that will not X-ray you,**  
**but will detonate any explosive device you may have on your person.**

**Israel sees this as a win-win situation for everyone, with none of this crap about racial profiling.**  
**It will also eliminate the costs of long and expensive trials.**

**You’re in the airport terminal and you hear a muffled explosion.**  
**Shortly thereafter, an announcement: “Attention to all standby passengers,**  
**_El Al_ is proud to announce a seat available on flight 670 to London . Shalom!”**
