Granted, Israel is a tiny place, so access control via civilian air travel is not the monster it is here CONUS. However, the approach they use to identify potential lunatics is far more effective, efficient, and less invasive, than the amateurish joke of a system we adopted. The Israeli's figured out a long time ago that they needed to develop an approach that prioritizes personnel screening as much as, if not more so, than equipment screening. This concept seems to be lost in our approach to security.
Although I agree with your basic point, there are also aspects of the Israeli approach that would never work in the US. In Israel, you need to deliver any bags you are checking to the airport a day in advance of your departure for screening.
