Though it doesn't make the AIT machines any less egregious. Its still a virtual strip search.

And instead of sending a 150 million in aid to the offending country, lets return to the good old days of cruise missles to the return addresses of package bombs.

Pilots Association urges airline pilots to opt out of TSA naked body scanners
"No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders"

For just once, I'd like to see the TSA pull a pro-active move rather a reactive one.

Common sense schould have been the order of the day from the start of this agency and for whatever reason they chose not to use it.
If airlines and pax alike had piped up at the beginning with all the bravo sierra that was going in regards to searches then things might be different today maybe !
