It's the methods used, not the fact that it's security.
Israel looks for terrorists. That's whats different about Israeli security. They spend more time looking for terrorists and less time/resources looking for weapons.

In the USA, we can't do that because its "unfair" to single out a clearly nervous, suspicious young Arab guy, who bought a one way ticket with cash and who has no luggage... because that's "profiling" and people are going to get sued.

This is why you have 95 year old women being shaken down. Its about policy and procedure and to establish a legal defense, not about common sense or based on intel.
