An Iraqi national wearing wires and concealing a magnet inside his rectum triggered a security scare at Los Angeles International Airport on Tuesday but officials said he posed no apparent threat.

The man, identified by law enforcement officials as Fadhel al-Maliki, 35, set off an alarm during passenger screening at the airport early on Tuesday morning.

A police bomb squad was called to examine what was deemed a suspicious item found during a body cavity search of the man. Local media reports said a magnet was found in his rectum.

"He was secreting these items in a body cavity and that was a great concern because there were also some electric wires associated with that body cavity," Larry Fetters, security director for the Transportation Security Administration at the airport, told reporters.

I doubt that.
Why would they do something like test the system in a new way while the republicans are still around to correct the problem?

It would make more sense to wait until the democrats are running things, then if caught claim that the magnet up the azz is a gay thing. The dems would then back off the investigation, claim it gay pride magnet day and all of congress would show their support by shoving magnets up their own azz's.

I thought Congress already had a magnet in their head and their ass. The two seem to be drawn to each other.
