Dan Rather's crew 'humiliated by Israeli security'
In a letter to Israeli officials, producer says legendary anchorman's crew held up for hours at security checks, strip-searched before interview with Deputy PM Meridor Associated Press

A crew for Dan Rather was harassed and humiliated by Israeli security officials, a producer for his show has said, accusing them of forcing the staffers to drop their pants for a strip search before seeing a Cabinet minister.
The allegations, made in a letter to Israeli officials that was obtained by The Associated Press, add to growing complaints about how Israeli security officials treat foreign media.
Andrew Glazer, an Emmy-award winning producer at Dan Rather Reports, wrote that the legendary anchorman came to do a story about improving Israeli-Palestinian relations pitched by Israel's Foreign Ministry.
Glazer said problems mounted after they arrived. He said they were held up for hours at security checks. Israeli soldiers barred the crew's veteran Palestinian cameramen — a Jerusalem resident — from accompanying Rather to a West Bank neighborhood. And then came the strip search before an interview with Deputy Prime Minister Dan Meridor.
"Mr. Rather said that in his career, he had never seen a crew forced to strip prior to an interview — including the one he conducted with Saddam Hussein," Glazer wrote.

It's fine if it belongs to this SITE!!! Bar Codes are not meant to be "shared". It is there for
the individual cell phones - not the Internet.

That Icon at the right is a BAR CODE. Don't EVER give your BAR CODE OUT to anyone. Or
you'll be sorry. Your cell phone bill will be unbelievable!!! (It is the black & white; maze like
square box you see on this page).....

Dropping your pants is part of a strip search. According to "Prison Rules". It's called in the
Prison System as a "body cavity search" - Must be horrible!!!

How humliating for them. That could have been avoided if Bush hadn't started this and
gotten involved in this WAR!!! Just couldn't keep out of it... That's where American tax dollars went and not to the needy and homeless in the U.S. How can I say I "Like This" when the Americans are strip searching & fondling their own PEOPLE (and children). What
goes around - comes around!!!
