Some facts and logic may prove useful.
Why do you think that the US government would wish to spy on its own citizens?
Ah-ah - Islamo-terrorist sleeper cells have infiltrated the US for possibly a
decade. First examine the terrorist angle and then return to the necessity for
internal spying.

Now with air travel how hard is it for an East German or say a
Palestinian to travel on the Israeli Airlines (what is its name again)
How about even a US citizen of E German decent or has a VISA stamp from
a country that Israel considers hostile. Personally I would only know
from what I have seen
How does showing ID to an official make anyone safer?
It doesn't. Any kid with Photoshop and some time can download templates
for any state driver license on the Internet and print one that would
easily fool the bean counters at the airport.
