“The US will use nuclear weapons against states, which have violated or renounced the NPT”
(Barack Obama) - It is the job of the IAEA to denounce those states!

Atoms for Peace = Imposing (a non-existing) peace with nuclear weapons! "A fake organization which depends on the nuclear industry and can therefore not perform properly." (Iouli Andreev, Russian nuclear accident specialist) - WikiLeaks confirms Mr Andreev's assertion! A typical working day of an average IAEA staff member |
Mr Yukiya Amano A person without dignity! He does not shun using the tragedy of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as a "good" reason for his appointment as DG and perfectly knows that it is those responsible for this tragedy who have the say in the IAEA! “...solidly in the U.S. court on every key strategic decision, from high-level personnel appointments to the handling of Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program.” (Confidential diplomatic cable dated 16 October 2009, WikiLeaks). The luckless DG! Right at his start as DG it was WikiLeaks, soon after it was Fukushima! |
A true story, which explains in detail the nature and modus operandi of the Organization, and extensively demonstrates that the following two statements by Mr John Bolton, the former US ambassador to the UN (who together with Mr Colin L. Powell and later also Ms Condoleezza Rice, former US Secretaries of State, already since 2004 wanted to oust Mr Mohamed ElBaradei), are also true for the IAEA:
|
Mr David Barclay Waller The “playboy” of the IAEA and its problem no. 1! By installing Mr ElBaradei as DG, he secured both the extensions of his appointment up to 18 years now and absolute power in the IAEA! From the facts that there are spies from several countries in high positions in the IAEA, that he is the first official from the US in the IAEA, and that he is there so long, it is most likely that he is also a (CIA?) spy: "He provides insight into Agency operations..." = Breach of Confidentiality! (WikiLeaks). Reportedly, he should have left already at the end of 2010, but managed to have another one-year extension of his appointment, because "he would be unemployed, when he gets back to the US!" |
Mr Mohamed ElBaradei A notorious liar! Installed as Director General by Mr David Barclay Waller, he remained Mr David Barclay Waller's marionette all twelve years of his tenure. Unable to run the IAEA with only 2.400 officials, he now wants to become the President of Egypt, a country with over 80 million inhabitants! In retirement since the 1st December 2009, has done nothing against the Mubarak-regime. On the contrary, as he owes his splendid career to Mr Hosni Mubarak, first in Mr Mubarak’s Foreign Service, then thanks to Mr Mubarak, able to join the IAEA in 1984 and become its Director General in 1997. Now he is using his (undeserved) Nobel Peace Prize to steal the Egyptian revolution! |

The Nobel Peace Prize for 2005
It is known that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2005 was awarded jointly to Mr Mohamed ElBaradei, the Director General of the IAEA, and to the Organization itself, including here are all other staff members. The prize consisted of a medal, a personal diploma, and a cash award. The cash award of this Prize was then shared one half to Mr Mohamed ElBaradei, the other half to all other staff members. Mr Mohamed ElBaradei received his medal, his personal diploma, and his half of the cash award, which is something more than half a million Euros. All other staff members received only this “worthless” certificate by the IAEA. The question is then raised here, what happened to the other staff members’ cash award? Each staff member should have received some 250 Euros, which they did not! The IAEA says that the IAEA Board of Governors had decided to establish a special fund called the "IAEA Nobel Cancer and Nutrition Fund" with the Organization's share of the cash award, and that Mr Mohamed ElBaradei had said that he would direct his share of the cash award to charitable purposes. It remains to be seen if all this is true. |
US, Australia schemed against IAEA (former) chief (Mr Mohamed ElBaradei): "Carlson [Australian Safeguards and Nonproliferation Office (ASNO) Director General John Carlson] commented that ElBaradei was a very bad manager and morale throughout the IAEA staff was 'appalling.'" "Although he acknowledged that the personnel in the DG's office were very loyal to him, Carlson claimed no one below them was. He related that both Deputy DG Pierre Goldschmidt and Technical Safeguards specialist Ollie Heinonen had complained to him about ElBaradei's poor management practices." (Confidential diplomatic cable dated 18 February 2005, WikiLeaks). |

Assertion No. 1: This is what the IAEA is all about: Only these states (and no other) have the right to have (and to keep) nuclear weapons (which is the only truth in the Organisation):

Indeed, by detonating its atomic bombs over Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, the USA opened the box of Pandora that it has been desperately and unsuccessfully trying to close since then. The USA fully realized this fact in 1949, when the Soviet Union developed its first atomic weapon. That is why the USA pursued the creation of the IAEA in 1957, with which they hoped to be able to close the box of Pandora (= to stop the proliferation of nuclear weapons) they themselves opened. In this sense, the IAEA represents the implicit recognition by the USA of having made a serious mistake that they try to correct with this Organization. These are the proofs here for (for Assertion No. 1):
Israel, according to Mr Mohamed ElBaradei, the problem no. 1 in the Middle East (it is already bad enough, that the US, which have caused the Middle East Conflict in the first place, are also the mediator in this Conflict! But it is still worse that the Arabs, who are the victims in this Conflict, recognize this mediation role to the US!)! It is well known that Israel's army is largely funded by the US. Therefore, it would not be surprising if it is known that it is the US that provided Israel with its nuclear weapons, or otherwise helped it to acquire them, thereby fostering the proliferation, it is ready to fight with the same weapons! This might be the reason why the US in this respect systematically vetoes year after year every “Resolution” against Israel in both the UN Security Council and the IAEA. Mr Yukiya Amano is well aware of this and of the fact that Israel has not signed the Treaty on the Non-proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and that, therefore, the IAEA has no right to investigate "Israel's nuclear capabilities"! Nevertheless, as if the Israeli Government would listen to him and wasting the money of the IAEA, he traveled to Israel in August 2010 (where he was not even received by the Prime Minister!) to ask it for information on its nuclear program and to sign the NPT, which of course, Israel declined! This, and his recent statement that he has (only) two well-qualified safeguards inspectors [(out of some 150) but just in case he is right in this respect, then this would confirm point C below], raise serious questions about his degree of intelligence [in such a position, it would not matter anyway if this degree was low, because no one would be able to know about it, since he is protected by: His advisers, provided that they are intelligent enough and that he listens to them; The IAEA confidentiality, and his power on appointments (none of his staff would dare saying it)]! Maybe this is the reason why he was elected as DG only at the fifth or sixth ballot-round and with a difference of only one or two votes! Under these conditions, it is clear that he must have accepted long lists of concessions from several Member States, in particular from the US... just the kind of people the US seem to like in such positions, because it can easily manipulate them! Assertion No. 5: And, it is well known that the Member State most interested in his election as DG was the US. And behold, the very first thing Mr Yukiya Amano does as DG is what the U.S. has been tirelessly doing already since years: To attack the Islamic Republic of Iran without any reason (because only on suspicion!)! |

Why is it important to know about this story? For the simple reason that it is your money that is being wasted, because:
|
|
This story extensively proves this fact. And, all the staff members mentioned in this paragraph, together with many other mentioned in this page, are of course, not subject to the IAEA’s rotation policy, which states that appointments for professional staff can be extended up to a maximum of seven years, regardless of the performance of the incumbents. But, according to the IAEA Board of Governors (BoG), “instead of instituting effective performance evaluation, the rotation policy has been used for the purpose of removing poor performing staff from the IAEA payroll.” This assertion by the BoG not only contradicts the official rotation policy and confirms that the Management of the IAEA lies to its staff, but is also wrong, because there are many professional staff members in the IAEA, including several of them mentioned in this page (firstly and most notably Mr David Barclay Waller, but also Ms X and Mr Manfred Boemeke), who are not subject to the rotation policy although they are “poor performing”. This means that the IAEA Management applies this policy arbitrarily and that, in the IAEA, it is not the “highest degree of excellence” that counts, but other criteria like “good relationships”! Therefore, Mr Douglas John Northey’s answer to the BoG about the benefits of the IAEA’s rotation policy is wrong: “...the long term retention of those with the highest degree of excellence”;
The question arising from point H above is: why do the IAEA Member States tolerate such a situation? The reason for this is simple: the countries having the say in the IAEA are the five permanent members of the UN Security Council (the USA, the UK, the Russian Federation, China and France), which are also the five permanent members of the IAEA Board of Governors and the only with the right to veto. These countries are at the same time the five declared nuclear-weapon states, whose paramount interest is to keep their supremacy in nuclear weapons in the world. And they have an instrument for this purpose: the Treaty on the Non-proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), which entered into force in 1970 and which establishes a safeguards system (used to verify compliance with the Treaty through inspections, but of course, only in non-nuclear-weapon states) under the responsibility of only one Organization, the IAEA. In accordance to the paramount interest of the five declared nuclear-weapon states, this Treaty allows these five states to keep their nuclear weapons for nuclear deterrence... with a view of “gradually” reducing them (without giving a time frame for this), while impeding other states to acquire them. And the truth here is that the “intention” of “gradually” reducing their nuclear-weapons has been the same intention since 40 years and will continue to be only an intention forever. This fact has been demonstrated by French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who recently said that he would not renounce the nuclear weapon "guarantor of the security" of France. The former DG has also recognized this:
Exactly this fact will be fatal to the IAEA, because it will be the reason for the end of its existence most likely already in a few years time. The nuclear deterrence of these five states is logically directed against each other and they do not and will never trust each other! Neither France, nor the Russian Federation, nor China will want to experience again an invasion like the one they suffered during World War II. The sad reality here is that, once in the world, nuclear weapons will stay and definitely only proliferate. Not even US President Barack Obama, who has recently declared in Prague that he wants a nuclear-weapons-free world, will be able to free the world from such weapons. For this reason, this is the most important matter in the IAEA and any other matter has no much importance. And the proofs for this are the facts that:
Under these circumstances, these "other tasks” of the IAEA are no more than “covert-tasks”, which are there to give the impression (to the other Member States) that the IAEA is not there only for NPT-verification (these are the proofs here for). This makes of the IAEA a lie in itself, a fact well known by many other IAEA Member States (a very probable reason why they do not pay their contributions regularly) and by the IAEA’s Management as well, which does not hesitate in taking advantage of. That is the reason why the IAEA Member States (or better to say, the five permanent members of the IAEA Board of Governors) tolerate such a situation within the Organization. For the same reason and in order to keep all other states within the NPT-regime, it is not in the interest of the five declared nuclear-weapon states to uncover any matter, like this Story, discrediting the IAEA. For the USA and the UK the IAEA, as the UN Security Council, is no more than a useful and very cheap [for the USA the IAEA costs only about € 60 million every year, which is about half the price of one American F-35 stealth fighter jet (which costs about € 100 million)] instrument for justifying their wars. For France, the Russian Federation and China it is very important to be in the IAEA (and in the UN Security Council), because only they (with their right to veto) can stop the USA and the UK to do what they want. The degree of desperation of the five declared nuclear-weapon states of keeping all other states within the NPT-regime, has been seen with Iraq and can now be seen with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, with the Islamic Republic of Iran and with the new US nuclear weapons strategy, by which the USA for the first time explicitly commits not to use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear-weapon states that are in compliance with the NPT. Exceptions are “outliers like Iran and North Korea” that would have violated or renounced the NPT. This is equivalent to a direct threat: “You do not comply with the NPT, so can you expect that I use my nuclear weapons against you.” One should remember that, at the beginning, the signing of the NPT was voluntary. Now it is evident that, once inside, never out! This means that the states which have signed the NPT were actually fooled (it is clear that it is the USA that orchestrated the signing of the NPT and this is how they did it: for the other four declared nuclear-weapon states it was clearly in their interest, some of the other states signed it out of ignorance of their leaders and the other states whose leaders realized what was at stake resisted the signing at first but did it at the end through checkbook-diplomacy). This was particularly the case of Brazil and South Africa, which with good faith, abandoned their nuclear weapons programs. This is an almost "every day issue" in the news headlines, something Mr Mohamed ElBaradei was very enthusiastic of, as he loved appearing on TV and give the impression that he had something to say, when he perfectly knew that he had absolutely nothing to say ["The IAEA is not in the business of diplomacy (Ms Condoleezza Rice, former US Secretary of State)."]. It is the five permanent members of the UN Security Council who make the decisions. These five declared nuclear-weapon states do not want to see any other nuclear-weapon State like Pakistan, India and Israel, outside the NPT-regime. This may well be the reason why the IAEA is called "the UN nuclear watchdog" by the international press. In reality it is "the nuclear watchdog of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council". It is quickly forgotten, that after the First World War, the Treaty of Versailles should provide the conditions for a lasting peace, and thus prevent another world war, that however, this Treaty caused exactly the contrary, as it was the reason for the Second World War! As the Treaty of Versailles, the establishment (by the U.S.) of the UN Security Council and of the State of Israel, and the NPT (incidentally, also by the U.S.), should also provide the conditions for a lasting peace after the Second World War, and to prevent a third world war. And exactly the contrary will happen again, as they are founded on the basis of injustice and lies and have therefore already caused several wars, they will also be the reason for the Third World War. By reason of point F above, the IAEA’s Management has attempted several times to destroy this Website!!! The IAEA’s Management has been very busy writing many letters to Permanent Missions of IAEA Member States, to the Austrian Foreign Ministry, to the Austrian Police, to the press, etc., most probably even to Google and to my provider... and, as it has been reported to me, they have one or two staff members {one of them was (in the meantime he has left the IAEA) Mr Massimiliano Falcinelli [Systems Services Section, Division of Information Technology (MTIT)], who used to inform Management by Email (with messages like "read on wed") and has now been replaced by Mr Minori Hara [Japan. Head, Open Systems and Security Unit (MTIT)]} checking every day every change I make (to see if they find something that they could use against me)! “IAEA Personnel Office reviewed the documents published by Mr. M.R. and made a research if any troublesome and alarming message would be found" (Appendix 124). A typical working day of an average IAEA (mostly G-) staff member with a fixed-term appointment starts by checking in (= the official start of his/her working time) between 8:30 and 9:00 and go directly to the Cafeteria, where he/she has his/her breakfast during some 30 minutes, mostly with other staff members. At 10:00 or 10:30 he/she has his/her coffee for 30 to 40 minutes, also mostly with the other staff members of his/her Unit/Section. From 12:00 to 14:00 he/she has his/her lunch. Officially the lunch-time is only one hour to be taken between 12:00 to 14:00, but most staff members in all categories take the two hours with no one saying anything about it. Between 15:00 and 16:00 he/she has his/her coffee and/or goes to the Commissary (the duty-free shop) to do his/her shopping for 30 to 40 minutes. Between 17:00 and 17:30 he/she checks out (= the official end of his/her working time). Although the Austrians have a similar working day, the difference with them is that they start their working day at 7:30 and end it at 16:30 (as there is flexible working time, meaning that a staff member can start anytime from 7:30 to 9:40 and end anytime from 16:00 to 19:30 in winter-time). If we take an example during the winter-time, when the working day lasts 8 hours (in summer-time it lasts 30 minutes less), then, if the staff member started at 8:30, he/she would finish at 17:30 taking the official one-hour lunch-time into account. In reality, however, taking also into account private telephone calls and Emails, the average effective working time (during the winter-time) of a (mostly G-) staff member with a fixed-term appointment in the IAEA is only between 4 and 5 hours, with some extreme exceptions of staff members doing close to nothing at all (this was, or still is, most notably the case with Mr Raymond Nader, who spent, or still spends, much of his working time outside the IAEA Headquarters, and who, for this reason, was denounced to the Head of the Service Administration Unit, Division of Human Resources, at that time Ms Cynthia Valenzuela, whose response was: "There is nothing we can do about it!" Or like a former secretary of the French Translation Section who used to read the French magazine “Paris Match” the whole day for over 15 years; or a Mexican staff member working in the INIS Section who used to play chess with a computer the whole day while from time to time producing microfiches of publications; or some staff members in the Publishing Section whose offices are always closed and no one knows what they do). Little can be said about higher-grade staff members (Grade P-5 and above) as their offices are always closed when they are in their offices (they are often in duty travel). Exceptions to this privilege are TAs (staff on "Temporary Assistance") and “the internal enemies” of the IAEA’s Management. The TAs, because they are the slaves of the staff members with fixed-term appointments and the “the internal enemies”, because the IAEA’s Management uses this (among other things) against them. |

"...fraud and corruption emanating from within and outside the IAEA..." (Fifth point of "Functions / Key Results Expected" of IAEA Vacancy Notice No. 2008/060) |
Introduction:1. This story is about widespread corruption, mismanagement, abuse of power and arbitrary rule, deliberate lies, violations of human rights and violations of the IAEA’s Staff Regulations and Staff Rules by the IAEA’s Management (in the IAEA, only the IAEA’s Management can violate the IAEA’s Staff Regulations and Staff Rules at will... and decide who else can do this as well!) and nepotism (godfatherism). With the IAEA’s Management I mean in this story only three persons: the former Director General, Mr Mohamed ElBaradei, the former Deputy Director General, Head of the Department of Management, Mr David Barclay Waller and the former Special Assistant to the Director General for Management, Mr Verasak Liengsririwat. 2. This story is firstly my personal story. But it is also a story of the world public, because it is about an international Organisation that exists of the money of the contributions (of the tax payers) of the IAEA Member States {at present amounting to approximately $ 490 million [$ 390 million (of the regular budget) and about $ 100 million (of voluntary contributions from member states)], which is about € 370 million}. Furthermore, this story took place at the same time the IAEA and its Director General at that time, Mr Mohamed ElBaradei, were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. 3. In addition, this story is not only my personal story because it is in every sense only the tip of the iceberg: the story’s specific case of abuse of power, arbitrary rule, deliberate lies, violations of human rights and violations of the IAEA’s Staff Regulations and Staff Rules, and the other cases of corruption and nepotism mentioned here are not at all single cases. This story is also partly or completely [depending on how far the respective staff member went through (endured) the process lasting for years and outlined in this story] the story of many IAEA staff members, who did not have either the possibility, or the courage, or the strength to tell it to the public. 4. Lastly, this story uncovers a clever system of oppression and intimidation implemented by the IAEA’s Management since many years to cover up its errors and its corrupted and criminal doings. In addition to the fact that most of the problems within the Organization are created by the IAEA’s Management itself due to their lack of qualifications for their positions, the IAEA’s Management is also the source of most of the corruption as it has absolute power. It is therefore their utmost interest to hide at all cost both, the problems and the corruption they themselves produce. Ideally, in such an organization the management is expected to establish procedures (like that for reported misconduct) and policies (like that for whistleblowers) to solve problems and to fight corruption. In the IAEA however, the Management did establish such procedures and policies, but with the only objective of identifying reporters (of problems, or of misconduct) and whistleblowers for reducing them to silence and/or attacking them [for example, by accusing them of whatever even without any evidence (for which case the IAEA’s Management uses the word “founded”) and forcing them into a Kafkaesque (endless) process, the only way out of which being for the (as from now) accused abandoning the case!] if necessary (in case they resist), without leaving any trace (meaning here without anyone else knowing about it) thanks to their most important instrument, the confidentiality. The IAEA’s Management has even reinforced such procedures with the recent implementation of the “Reverse Appraisal Report” by which a staff member “is able” to evaluate his/her direct supervisors’ "skills and qualities". Before, only the supervisors were able to evaluate the performance of their staff through the “Performance Review Reports”. But yet again here, instead of evaluating supervisors’ "skills and qualities", the only objective of these “Reverse Appraisal Reports” is the same as that of the procedures and policies mentioned in this paragraph: Identifying staff complaining about their supervisors for reducing them to silence and/or attacking them. "You should immediately remove this!" is what Mr Anthony Watson (a "Staff Representative") keeps saying staff members who write against their supervisors, although he is not supposed to know what they write in such reports as these are "confidential"! A staff member reporting misconduct, or some other problem, or corruption is lost from the start regardless of whether he presented valid evidence [in which case the IAEA’s Management has a magic word: “unfounded” (this can be seen in many of the judgments of the ILOAT)] or no valid evidence (in which case the report is anyway “unfounded”). This is how the IAEA’s Management cleans up the Organization of reporters (of problems, or of misconduct) and of whistleblowers and, at the same time, it gives the good impression to the Member States that it has taken measures to solve problems and to fight corruption. About the author:5. I graduated in Physics (MSc in Nuclear Physics) at the University of Vienna, have worked many years at the IAEA where I also wrote my thesis and hold the Austrian and Mexican nationalities. The story in summary:6. This story began in 2003 in the Division of Conference and Document Services (MTCD) with (...) the Division’s Director, Mr Magnus Olafsson and the Division’s Administrative Assistant (AA) (...). 7. This fact was not unperceived by the IAEA’s Management and by other staff members, most of whom preferred not to talk about it. Some of those staff members, however, did not hesitate in taking advantage of. This was the case of Mr Raymond Nader, who, by letting know the IAEA’s Management that he knew about it (and most probably even had proofs of it), managed to have a promotion from grade G-5 to grade G-6. 8. But it was as Mr Raymond Nader, only a few months after his first promotion, wanted to have another promotion, this time from grade G-6 to grade P-3, that I became involved in the affair, as Mr Raymond Nader did not fulfilled the qualifications required for this second promotion and Mr Magnus Olafsson and Ms X, the staff members responsible for organizing these promotions, just thought that they could take my qualifications for Mr Raymond Nader’s second promotion, which itself, would make possible his direct supervisor (Ms Corinne Foote)’s promotion from grade P-4 to grade P-5. This was done by transferring me to the Conference Services Section and having Mr Raymond Nader “coordinate my work” there, whereby my complete work left in the Publishing Section should make possible Mr Markus Lané’s promotion from grade G-5 to grade G-6. At the end, with my qualifications, three staff members should get promotions, not me. Noteworthy is what Indira Gandhi had said in this regard: "There are two kinds of people, those who do the work, and those who take the credit of it. Try to be of the first group. There is less competition." |

9. The reason for these planned promotions was clearly Ms X (...) with Mr Magnus Olafsson and her (...) promotion from grade G-6 to grade P-3, and Mr Raymond Nader’s awareness of it. This is the core of the story that the IAEA’s Management tried to hide by all means, because it discloses that (not only) (...) favours are used to get promotions, appointments and extensions thereof, in the IAEA. |
|
|||||||
|
10. But it was when Ms Naomi Bichler-Bell informed Mr Verasak Liengsririwat (the former Special Assistant to the Director General for Management) that I was aware of the reason mentioned in paragraph 9 above (of which she reportedly said sometime in 2005 or 2006: "Everything José said is true!") that the IAEA’s Management organized a series of provocations and intimidations lasting over several months with the clear objective of getting rid of me [for them it was easier to get rid of me only (see paragraph 1 of Appendix 150) than to get rid of all those staff members in the meantime involved in the affair but willing “to cooperate” (meaning here to keep silent about it)]. For the IAEA’s Management it became extremely important that I do not imitate Mr Raymond Nader (...). |
Ms Lisa Lorraine Villard “AmCit”! The Staff Representative! Her job is to denounce (= to betray) the staff members "she represents". For her excellent performance doing this job, she was awarded with a promotion from Grade G-5 to Grade P-2! |
11. And it was Ms Lisa Lorraine Villard (the Staff Representative!) who, by informing the IAEA’s Management that I had given all my money to my partner (from which she deduced that I was going to kill my partner first, then all those in the group and finally myself), triggered my suspension from duty in December 2004 (see paragraph 5 A of Appendix 150), as the DDG-MT became frightened and ordered to intensify the provocations and intimidations against me. As there was not the expected reaction from my part to these provocations and intimidations, the DDG-MT then ordered that several staff members ("staff members paralyzed by the fear of displeasing, by the fear of losing their jobs") write Email-reports (Appendices 110, 50, 145, 146, 147, 148 and 32) of "unpleasant and intimidating incidents... regarding threats" "allegedly" by myself, which he then used to justify his immediate (before I possibly do anything that would compromise his own post) decision on this suspension. Apart from being itself a huge provocation, the clear intention of this suspension was to force me “to cooperate” (meaning here to keep silent about it and to accept their compromise). 12. In violation of the IAEA’s Staff Regulations and Staff Rules, the respective internal investigation was initiated after suspending me from duty and it lasted five months instead of three! 13. In spite of the fact that the IAEA’s Management partly successfully managed to manipulate the five-month investigation’s final report, which was completed in May 2005, it could not prevent its results essentially stating that "After reviewing the facts of the case, OIOS (Office of Internal Oversight |
|
Services) could not substantiate the alleged 'prima facie' used by the Agency to support my immediate suspension (paragraph f of page 43 of Appendix 4)", because the authors of this report threatened to go to the press in case these results were changed. That is the reason why the authors of the said report had to leave the IAEA. These results also provided proofs against the staff members involved in the case, Ms X, Mr Magnus Olafsson [former Director of the Division of Conference and Document Services (DIR-MTCD)] and Mr Raymond Nader, which were embarrassing enough for the IAEA’s Management. 14. Mr Mohamed ElBaradei's Fundamental and Deliberate Lie: According to the results of the five-month investigation, the former Director General had made a huge mistake as this suspension should not have taken place in the first place. But instead of recognizing his mistake and terminating the suspension, in order not to lose face, Mr Mohamed ElBaradei’s reaction to this embarrassing situation was to simply ignore these results and maintain the suspension. This was in 2005, the year Mr Mohamed ElBaradei was seeking the extension of his appointment for another four-year term and was confronted with the efforts by the US and Israeli Governments to oust him. This is the reason why the former Director General, misusing the IAEA’s Confidentiality and abusing of his power, dared making two contradictory decisions on the same matter and at the same time:
[Note to "there was...", Appendices 15, 14 and 16]. Mr Mohamed ElBaradei repeated this fundamental and deliberate lie, the source of more than hundred of other lies by several other staff members, among others of the Joint Appeals Board, but in particular of the Office of Legal Affairs, several times in writing to these two (now former) staff members shortly before receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for 2005. With this fundamental and deliberate lie, the former Director General decided that I be suspended from duty (because "Mr Magnus Olafsson filed an internal complaint with proofs against me") and that Mr Magnus Olafsson receives a "Letter of Warning" ["because he filed an internal complaint without proofs against me” (hereby recognizing the results of the investigation’s final report mentioned in paragraph 13 above)]. As a result, these two staff members filed complaints at the Administrative Tribunal (ILOAT) of the International Labour Organization (ILO) against the IAEA. The flagrant proof of this fundamental and deliberate lie came to light when the ILOAT’s Verdict on Mr Magnus Olafsson’s complaint (Judgment No. 2752, paragraph C) was published on 9 July 2008.
15. The continuation of the suspension gave the IAEA’s Management additional nine months time to do find (that is, to invent) “the alleged 'prima facie' (the second, to be) used by the Agency to justify my immediate suspension" [this is how the IAEA’s Management decided that “...the Office of Internal Oversight Services... concluded that verbal abuse (to Ms Corinne Foote) had occurred and this finding is, thus, prima facie evidence of misconduct.” (Paragraph 54, page 14 of Appendix 51)] and, with it, force me to reach a compromise with them, which would be above all orally (to avoid any evidence) and, of course, to the liking of the IAEA’s Management: end of the suspension if I forget the reason mentioned in paragraph 9 above and the illegal suspension (by which my dignity and good name were completely destroyed) and forgive the IAEA’s Management for it. Such oral compromises are imposed by the IAEA’s Management to a staff member during a meeting in which this staff member finds himself alone seating in front of four or five other staff members (and their signatures!) sent by the IAEA’s Management [first the OIOS (Office of Internal Oversight Services), then the two pseudo-tribunals of the IAEA: The Joint Appeals Board (JAB) and the Joint Disciplinary Board (JDB)]. This constellation makes sure that an oral compromise is reached by all means [exactly like the methods of the CIA: they make a verbal proposal, if one accepts it, one is well rewarded, if one refuses it, one is destroyed. In the IAEA this means: if the staff member does not agree with the compromise proposed by the IAEA’s Management (and to its liking, of course), he is intimidated, threatened and ultimately provoked and falsely accused (of whatever!). See page 4 of the file documenting this story in detail]. In my case, already in November 2004, Ms Elizabeth Delgado Pardo-Figueroa [Mr David Barclay Waller's Office (who apparently went to visit Ms X in the hospital in the summer of 2006, as Ms X's daughter y was born)] called me at home to warn me not to go to such a meeting. She also warned me not to be in the office when no one else is there, i.e. too early and too late during working days, and during the weekends and official holidays. Therefore, and later after the experience with the fundamental and deliberate lie mentioned in paragraph 14 above, for me it was clear that no compromise was possible with the IAEA’s Management. 16. Furthermore, the IAEA’s Management even found a new 'prima facie' (the third!), which it used, this time, for summarily dismissing me on 3 March 2006, 28 days before the end of my appointment (the "hidden" reason being my refusal to compromise): the following three phrases (...) I wrote in my Statement dated 28 January 2005 (page 11 of Appendix 24), one and-a-half months after the suspension, which were conveniently reworded by the IAEA's Management (top of page 11 of Appendix 69):
17. The IAEA’s Management knew about (...) Mr Magnus Olafsson and that Mr Raymond Nader (...). And, this is how the IAEA’s Management went about with this truth:

18. The two processes at the Administrative Tribunal (ILOAT) of the International Labour Organization (ILO): The IAEA’s Management has paid not only my counsel in the case, Mr Jean-Didier Sicault (Senior lecturer in International Civil Service Law at the Universities of Paris I and Paris II, Attorney at the Paris Court of Appeal) but also the ILOAT as both made common cause with it. The following facts prove this:
This was to be expected as the ILOAT is neither independent nor impartial, which is in violation of Article 10 (see page 81 of the file documenting this story in detail) of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The ILOAT is part of the ILO against which it also judges and the ILO itself is, as the IAEA, an Organization within the United Nations System. 19. I am thus, after an incredible fourteen and-a-half month suspension from duty, since 3 March 2006, out of work and without any possibility to ever find another employment. The IAEA’s Management deliberately brought me into this situation in order to force me to ask them to help me out of it, that is, to make a compromise with them. However, under the circumstances described here and for the reasons mentioned in paragraph 15 above, such a compromise is not possible with the IAEA’s Management. And the most important of such a compromise is that I sign their "Confidentiality Undertaking". This would make sure that I cannot tell this story to anyone. And this again would make sure that the IAEA’s Management continues undisturbed and unpunished (protected by the functional immunity granted to international organizations) with its corrupted and criminal doings and carries on doing the same to other staff members as it did with me and with many other staff members before and since many years. 20. But not enough for the IAEA’s Management in bringing me into this situation. Shortly after having published this website in September 2007, they even sought to imprison me. To this effect, they sent (twice!) Ms Cristina Vilaplana Milla to make a denunciation to the Austrian Police against me. The objective of this denunciation being: first and above all, to prevent that I discover the proof of (...) Mr Magnus Olafsson mentioned in paragraph 17 above, because this proof annuls the second verdict of the ILOAT (Appendix 83) mentioned in paragraph 18 above; second, to destroy this website; and third, to prevent at all cost that Mr Mohamed ElBaradei's fundamental and deliberate lie mentioned in paragraph 14 above be known to the public. 21. As the denunciation to the Austrian Police did not work, the probability that I discover the proof (...) with Mr Magnus Olafsson was high and real as I was free out there. This is why both had to leave the IAEA as soon as possible, but not dismissed (...). Therefore, Mr David Barclay Waller quickly organized Mr Magnus Olafsson’s position (as in the IAEA, again without competition) as Director (grade D-2) of the UN Meetings and Publishing Division, which he took up in the summer of 2008, while Ms X had still to be trained (!!) in the IAEA’s Publishing Section as Head of the Production Unit (post for which there was no competition). It should be recalled here that in the IAEA, it was Ms X herself who in 2002 created her own P-3 post as Head of the Meeting Planning and Support Coordination Unit [Conference Services Section (CSS), Division of Conference and Document Services (MTCD)] and that although there was a competition for this post, this competition was feigned as the decision on her selection had been taken long before the vacancy was even written. The story in detail:22. I have documented this story in detail and in English (as all documentary evidence is in English) in the following electronic file, which is linked to 179 appendices, the documentary evidence. The most important part of this story though is summarized in the first 81 pages:
