The incident described is textbook for how NOT to do this. Damn these folks make me nuts sometimes.

I also must point out some fairly blatant sexism in the article:
He actually presented himself in the deceptive form of a young, attractive female officer,
What do any of those adjectives have to do with anything? Would he use any of those adjectives if it was not 'an attractive, female officer'. Would he have said it was an 'ugly old female officer'? A fat old man? A hot hunky young man.

I don't know enough about that form of security but I will say I don't think TSA trains their people well enough to do an adequate job. According to the following news article they receive four days of classroom training and three days of on the job training. If it were that easy, we would all do it.

Oh, and I bet the security in Israel are not hired off pizza delivery boxes as the TSA agents are.
