Iran threatened ‘harm’ to top nuke inspector to prevent disclosure of secret deal

Iranian leaders prevented a top International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) official from disclosing to U.S. officials the nature of secret side deals with the Islamic Republic by threatening harm to him, according to regional reports.

Yukiya Amano, IAEA director general, purportedly remained silent about the nature of certain side deals during briefings with top U.S. officials because he feared such disclosures would lead to retaliation by Iran, according to the spokesman for Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization (AEOI).

This disclosure has only boosted suspicions among some that the Iranians are willing and able to intimidate the top nuclear watchdog and potentially undermine the verification regime that Obama administration officials have dubbed a key component of the nuclear accord.

So they write him a letter with undisclosed threats in it, and he zips it for the duration of the talks? And how exactly is he going to be forceful and act with integrity when -- not "if," when -- he and his teams find evidence of nuclear weapons research ongoing in Iran?

I doubt it would take much more than that with these "diplomats" who "negotiated" that disaster.

It's either sheer stupidity on the part of our state dept or it's intentional. What would the payout be for something like that?.....and to whom?
