Why does Israel question passengers who are departing the country?

An attacker could bring down a plane heading both inbound and outbound. While inbound flights are a greater risk as Israel has no control over originating airports, there is no zero-risk of an attack originating from an Israeli airport either.

Checking luggage is insufficient – a plane can be brought down or hijacked with entirely innocuous and permitted luggage (e.g. fake suicide bomb made from duct tape and hot-dogs), to something more elaborate involving corrupt airport staff who could stowaway weapons as they load ordinary cargo.

The intense questioning is part of their evidence-based psychological screening system which I understand is very effective.
