Is it possible that airport security is in reality just a smoke screen put in place to make pax feel safe? If so the level of security doesn't really matter. It is just the appearance that matters.
Terrorism might be a real threat in Israel but it isn’t in Australia. How many deaths have occurred in Australia as a result of terrorist activity? None
How many deaths have occurred as a result of a poorly thought out scheme to insulate your house? 4 – and this dangerous policy is still ok to continue.
Yet another $200mil is being spent to what? – safeguard Australian citizens?

This policy smells. Smoke, Mirrors, Incompetence and Ass covering at best. Threat to democracy at worst.
