LOLOL .. i FEEL this one is on Amano .. it's what i felt when i gave the link to you .. i'm GLAD he says he is in agreement with Obama' position on Iran as i'm certain (oops but anyway) Obama does want to attack Iran .. i'm NOT heartened by, Amano, saying he will NOT be as outspoken as Mohamed ElBaradei was ..
Introducing Yukiya Amano..IAEA head since 2009
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yukiya_Amano
Is the current Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency(IAEA), having been elected to the position in July 2009. Amano previously served as a Japanese diplomat and international civil servant for the United Nations and its subdivisions.
Amano was born in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, in 1947. He started his studies at the University of Tokyo in 1968. After graduating from the Faculty of Law, he joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in April 1972. He specialized in the international disarmament issue and nuclear nonproliferation efforts. In 1973–1974, he studied at the University of Franche-Comté and in 1974–1975, at the University of Nice, France
On 1 December 2009, Amano began his first term as Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
In November 2010, British newspaper The Guardian reported on a U.S. diplomatic cable originating a year earlier in Vienna and supplied to the newspaper by WikiLeaks, detailing a meeting between Amano and an American ambassador. The author of the cable summarized a statement by Amano in which the latter offered that he “was 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.”
In an interview with Democracy Now on November 21st 2011, Seymour Hersh, precising an article he wrote for the New Yorker, three days earlier, claimed that Yukiya Amano’s election to the IAEA was a political appointment, heavily backed by the US administration, and that the IAEA report on Iran’s ability or desire to produce a nuclear weapon relies on no new evidence and that many experts in the IAEA, as well as in the American and Israeli intelligence community, had indicated to Hersh that they do not endorse it.
According to a U.S. cable obtained by WikiLeaks , in a meeting in September, 2009 with Glyn Davies, the American permanent representative to the IAEA, Amano “reminded Ambassador on several occasions that he would need to make concessions to the G-77 [the developing nations], which correctly required him to be fair-minded and independent, but that he was 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.”

After 12 years, International Atomic Energy Agency director general Mohamed ElBaradei is stepping down Nov. 30. Taking his place will be Japanese diplomat Yukiya Amano, who was elected in July to become the fifth leader in the organization’s history. Amano, who has served the IAEA since the 1990s, has experience in disarmament, nonproliferation and nuclear-energy policy. As tensions with nations such as Iran and North Korea have come to a head in recent months, Amano has said that he will stick to the IAEA’s mandate of inspections to prevent proliferation. He is supportive of U.S. President Barack Obama’s position on Iran and has praised him for fostering diplomacy with the country. But he has also said that he doesn’t plan to be as outspoken as his predecessor: the outgoing ElBaradei famously clashed with the Bush Administration over its claims that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction in the run-up to the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
