Israeli Doctor Distraught

US airport security check leaves Dr Dorit Zilberman distraught, after reportedly being humiliated only because of her nationality. 'My family perished in Europe's gas chambers, I never thought 65 years later I would be marked, isolated, and put in a gas chamber'
 
An Israeli doctor who underwent tight security checks at San Francisco International claims that she was humiliated only because of her nationality.
 

She Set Off Alarms

After her handbag passed the standard airport screening, Zilberman was told she had to undergo further security checks and was asked to step aside.  "They took me aside, examined me scrupulously. It was a pretty humiliating situation," Zilberman wrote in her complaint.



 

She Was Pulled Aside Because She Was Israeli

The doctor claimed that once she presented her Israeli passport she was told to walk on a different path than the other passengers. "It was a dead end path that led to a kind of corner," she told Ynet.
"I thought I misheard the instructions and I tried to retrace my steps, another woman from the security crew ordered me to stop in a tone as if she was talking to a retard. She told me 'You don't understand, it says here that you should stop and wait for a crew member to approach you.'"

 

Looked Under Her Skirt?

Oh God! Treating her like a terrorist. 'I have never experienced such humiliation', she whined.
 

Zilberman Put In Sealed Chamber

She was lead to a sealed chamber, frightened to the point she couuld have soiled herself.
Next she was asked to take off my shoes, my hand bag where they were checked for traces of explosives.

"At that point I started to cry and told the man that in my country I am a respected doctor, and that I had never experienced such a chain of humiliations. He told me that if I didn’t like it, I could call the supervisor."
 

She Is A holocaust Survivor

"My family perished in the gas chambers in Europe. I never believed that 65 years later, I would be marked, isolated and taken into a gas chamber."

She Files A Complaint

Zilberman filed a complaint with the Foreign Ministry on the matter, and sources at the ministry said they would discuss the subject with the Americans, while adding that the number of Israeli complaints of treatment at American airports has recently been on the rise.
