Israeli police advising U.S. counterparts in anti-terrorism techniques "Eighteen senior Israeli Police officers visited Palm Beach, Florida, this week as part of a 10-day educational seminar sponsored by the American Jewish Committee. The original purpose of the trip was to instruct the Israeli policemen in American law enforcement tactics. But in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington, the Israelis were called upon to give their American counterparts tips on handling terrorism." --- " 'Just walk with your eyes open and your mind working and take into consideration that everything, everything can be hazardous to your health,' Police Lt. Col. Danny Kuffler said." Of course, now in the US you also have to take into consideration that all those "nervous people" and those patrols anywhere, everywhere can be hazardous to your health. ..
