Boston - IAEA chief Mohamed El Baradei annoyed and embarrassed over body search at Logan Airport

El Baradei subjected to an excavation with body in an American airport

VIENNA - the American authorities subjected the Nobel Prize of peace 2005 and chief of the IAEA, the Mohamed El Baradei Egyptian, with an excavation with body whereas it was on the point of taking off of an airport of Boston (is of the United States), learned AFP Monday from diplomatic sources.

The general manager of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and his wife were subjected Sunday to the Logan airport of Boston to a deepened control, apparently caused by their patronym, according to these sources.

This incident "annoyed much and embarrassed" the Nobel Prize of the peace, which must meet Tuesday the American Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, specified a diplomat joined in Washington from Vienna.

The deputy manager of the IAEA, David Waller, has for its part assured that Mr. El Baradei had regarded the incident as "a misunderstanding", "of no importance", and "had appreciated that the American government was ensured that a problem of this kind would not reproduce".

Mr. Waller - who has, in the past, worked for former American president Ronald Reagan - specified that it had contacted "some people at the State Department and that they had been put into four to make sure that a mistake of this kind would not reproduce".

It also indicated that the people who had proceeded to the excavation with the airport "were not civils servant" but "contractual" servants of safety.

Mr. El Baradei, who expressed himself last week before the general assembly of the United Nations in New York, left Boston for Washington, where it takes part this week in a conference on nuclear non-proliferation.

Mr. El Baradei and the IAEA was seen decreeing the Nobel Prize of peace on October 7 for their engagement in favour of nuclear disarmament.

The United States, which had tried to prevent its re-election for a third mandate with the head of the IAEA, had greeted this distinction without pointing out the disagreements which opposed them to Mr. El Baradei.

This one had in particular questioned the presence of massive weapons of destruction in Iraq, setting ahead by Washington to justify the war.

I wonder if they found anything during the rectal exam? Not microfiche, or a detonator, but a gateway to an alternate reality- like a tiny stargate. It makes you think...

It's a tradition here, Mohamed. Sometimes we get lucky and find a mummy.

Isn't it just terrible when the elites are held to the same rules they make for us?
