To speak in regard to Germany of an 'enormous influence' of Zionism on 
'politics and economies' is just nonsense.

This is the only example the author gives of the 'enormous influence' of 
Zionism in Germany and it is ridicolous. I assume he means the persons who 
check the baggage when he talks of airport checkers. That is one of the 
worst and low-paid job you can get at the airport and thats why a lot of 
immigrants are doing it. Might be some of them speak Hebrew among them, 
but I doubt it, because there are very little immigrants from Israel in 
Germany and those who are here are more likely to speak Russian, Yiddish, 
German or English among them. So I just guess the quoted Arab travellers 
just took any other non-European language for Hebrew.

Speaking Hebrew does not make you a Mossad agent, by the way. This is just 
like saying speaking Russian makes you a communist or speaking German 
makes you a nazi. And I doubt the 'airport checkers' in question wear 
Mossad badges.

The real security tasks at German airports are performed by members of the 
Federal Border Guard (Bundesgrenzschutz, BGS). They all have to be German 
citizens. BGS is also responsible for immigration matters at airports. 
These are the persons who really harass foreigners. But they do so not 
because they are Mossad agents but because of German immigration 
legislation, which is inherently racist and treats every foreigner as a 
potential danger.
