The need to secure airports is more important now than it ever was. The terrorist is captured on video hours before in the airport terminal and again roaming around the buses just outside. This report comes in the aftermath of the suicide bombing on a bus in Bulgaria on July 18th killing Israeli tourists. Most recently, Israeli security forces are concerned that Al-Qaeda is planning a large scale terror attack on Israel’s civil aviation as reported by The Jewish on August 17, 2012. The terror attack at Moscow’s Domodedovo Airport in 2011 that killed 35 people, specifically cited lapses in airport security and found people could enter from anywhere. “The result of a successful attack against an airport has had a significant impact on the traveling public and effectively has the same results as an attack against an aircraft,” explains William McGuire, President and CEO of Global Elite Group.
