The goal for most Israeli's I've talked to is for Israel to be more like the U.S. (less terrorism, more freedom, less extremists), not for the U.S. to become more like Israel.

Okay here goes the time to twist words instead of just sticking to the real argument.
No we don't want to become more like Israel, but the simple fact is we will when it comes to terrorism.
Isn't that what you guys all warned us about when attacking Afghanistan and Iraq that we would have increased terrorist attacks here? LOL
But the point of the argument is this. Flying is a privilege. Not a right.
The government can ask anything it wishes of you in order to benefit from this privilege, just as it does with driving.
When you want to drive you have to give all this information, including your thumbprint so they now have a record of you.
Show up at the DMV to apply for a licennse with a warrant out in that state...you get arrested because they can easily check their DB while you're there.
And while using this license they can easily check your information from a state db, as well as a national db to see if you're a wanted criminal. Does this violate my rights?
Hell no.
