It\u2019s called WeCU,<br \/>\nshort for \u201cWe See You\u201d (the same way <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/big-brother\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with big brother\">Big Brother<\/a> sees you).<br \/>\nIt projects images on a wall and monitors reactions of people.<br \/>\n\u201cIf you strolled through an airport and saw a picture of your<br \/>\nmother, Givon explained, you couldn\u2019t help but respond.\u201d Or<br \/>\nif you were a terrorist, the logic goes, you\u2019d respond to a<br \/>\nterror group logo or other familiar imagery. The reaction to these<br \/>\nimages could be a darting of the eyes, an increased heartbeat, a<br \/>\nnervous twitch or faster breathing, said company CEO Ehud Givon.<\/p>\n<p>If the system observes suspicious behavior, a person is detained and<br \/>\ninterrogated. \u201cOne by one, you can screen out from the flow of<br \/>\npeople those with specific malicious intent,\u201d Givon said.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, now the problems begin to arise. We are told the underwear<br \/>\nbomber and the shoe bomber and a number of other would-be bombers (all<br \/>\nof them in fact <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/false-flag\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with false flag\">false flag<\/a> patsies) are from al-Qaeda, an organization<br \/>\nwithout formal structure and no branding or logo (unlike Hezbollah or<br \/>\nHamas). The only readily identifiable image associated with al-Qaeda is<br \/>\nthe face of the late Osama bin Laden.<\/p>\n<p>If a large photo of Osama was plastered on the wall at the airport,<br \/>\nwhat would your reaction be? You\u2019d certainly dart your eyes. You<br \/>\nmay even stand there with your mouth open. You\u2019d likely get<br \/>\nspecial treatment by TSA goons.<\/p>\n<p>How about a lie detector test? The Ministry of Homeland Security has<br \/>\nactually proposed this. \u201cOne system being studied by Homeland<br \/>\nSecurity is called the Future Attribute Screening Technology, or FAST,<br \/>\nand works like a souped-up polygraph,\u201d reports the Associated<br \/>\nPress. \u201cIt would subject people pulled aside for additional<br \/>\nscreening to a battery of tests, including scans of facial movements<br \/>\nand pupil dilation, for signs of deception. Small platforms similar to<br \/>\nthe balancing boards used in the Nintendo Wii would help detect<br \/>\nfidgeting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>FAST project manager Robert Burns said the system could be made to<br \/>\nwork passively, scanning people as they walk through a security line.<\/p>\n<p>How many false positives such a harebrained idea would produce is not addressed.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. officials are considering the Israeli model for airport<br \/>\nsecurity. <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/israel\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with israel\">Israel<\/a> practices profiling. \u201cAt Ben-Gurion Airport,<br \/>\nJewish Israelis typically pass through smoothly, while others may be<br \/>\ntaken aside for closer interrogation or even strip searches.\u201d In<br \/>\nother words, if you are an Arab or a Palestinian, you will be strip<br \/>\nsearched and be subjected to body cavity searches.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine the predictable result of this: thousands of people who look<br \/>\nlike Arabs pulled aside with the ultimate result of producing chaos in<br \/>\nairport operation. Don\u2019t count on the dim bulbs hired by the TSA<br \/>\nto be capable of telling the difference between Arabs and Mexicans.<\/p>\n<p>This idea, however, thrills the neocons. Blogger and concentration<br \/>\ncamp apologist Michelle Malkin went on Fox News the other day and said<br \/>\nArabs should be profiled and get the same sort of treatment Arabs<br \/>\nendure in <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/israel\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with israel\">Israel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the Cato Institute believes airport security should be<br \/>\nprivatized. Jim Harper, director of information policy at Cato,<br \/>\n\u201cconcedes that privatizing airport security is probably wishful<br \/>\nthinking, and the idea has not gotten any traction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course it has not gained any traction. Because the idea is not to<br \/>\ncatch supposed terrorists (who are demonstrably <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/false-flag\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with false flag\">false flag<\/a> patsies) but<br \/>\nis rather part of a <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/government\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with Government\">government<\/a> effort to condition the public that it<br \/>\nis normal (even patriotic) to submit to unreasonable, dangerous, and<br \/>\ninvasive \u201csecurity\u201d measures. Airports are incubators for<br \/>\ntyranny and the emerging <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/police-state\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with police state\">police state<\/a>.
