I am really trying to understand the reactions of the Hareidi community.
This is a terrible chillul Hashem, and it puts every Hareidi travelling by air under the eye of law enforcement officials. These guys do profile, and if any of us who are openly identifiable as Jews show contempt for the law, the law will certainly return the favor.
It is in our interests as a community to find those responsible for these actions and punish them to the full extent of the law.
It is also in our interests to educate our children in good behavior and halacha. The importance of dinah d’malchusa dinah cannot be overstated. In addition, an education in common sense such as “don’t take any packages from strangers, no matter their appearance” would be helpful.
All of this should be an important part of any education, even the most cloistered. Otherwise, when the students do go out into the world, they have no idea of the behavior expected of them (by the legal authorities) and it is easy to run afoul of them–and pay extreme penalties.
