●この「悪い冗談」は「ＦＡＡの無名の当局者」からＡＰ通信 → ワシントン・タイムズ日曜版1面トップ、ダラス・モーニングニュース…と瞬時に広まったそうです。
「ＦＡＡの無名の当局者」はサウジの要求は不法だ！アブドゥラ皇太子は我が国では我が国のルールに従うべきだと言ったとか…
（サウジのルールに従うのは嫌だのなんだのと喚いたのは何処の国の女性兵士だったんでしょうかねぇ）
連邦航空局はサウジからも米政府からも特別な要請を受けていないとこの「悪い冗談」を否定。勿論サウジも否定しております。

Bad joke played on Saudi delegation
By Barbara Ferguson, Arab News Correspondent
WASHINGTON, 30 April --
Here's the scenario:
The meeting between Crown Prince Abdullah and President George W. Bush is successful, despite a negative national media spin proclaiming disaster before the two met.
Following the Abdullah-Bush summit, positive press about the Saudi peace plan in the Mideast is rehashed.
Suddenly, bizarre news appears in the press that "Aides to Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah asked that only male air-traffic controllers guide his flights during his visit to Texas," unnamed "officials" told the Associated Press.
The effect was instantaneous.
Immediately the news focus swung from the positive results of the Abdullah- Bush meeting, to the disparaging focus on the alleged request.
"Texas Furious as Controllers Say Saudi Tried to Ban Women," screamed a lead story in Sunday's Washington Times.
The Dallas Morning News, which broke the story, called it "an outrage."
The uproar surrounding Prince Abdullah's purported request generated considerable attention in Texas, and dominated radio talks shows over the weekend - with heated comments.
"It's just one more example of the United States kow-towing to the Arab world for their oil," said one woman on a Dallas talk show.
"I wonder how he treated Mrs. Bush at Crawford," snapped another.
An unnamed FAA official told the Dallas Morning News that the alleged Saudi request was "an outrage."
The official was quoted as saying:
"Prince Abdullah is in our country and should adhere to our rules."
The damage was done.
Many air traffic control officers were furious over allegations that were never substantiated.
"We have received no request from either the Saudis or the US State Department that we provide any special services for Crown Prince Abdullah's visit," said Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Roland Herwig.
Officials from the Saudi delegation stepped in to try to take charge of the unsubstantiated rumor.
Prince Saud Al-Faisal, Saudi Arabia's foreign minister and member of Abdullah's entourage in Texas, called the reports "absolute nonsense." "The role of women in Saudi Arabia is undergoing tremendous transformation," Prince Saud said.
"They make up half the population.
They are needed to bring the population to its full capacity."
Adel Al-Jubeir, foreign policy adviser to Crown Prince Abdullah, also denied the assertions the prince had asked that women be excluded from air traffic control duties affecting his flights to and from meetings last week with President Bush in Texas.
"It's a bad joke... and absolutely did not happen," Al-Jubeir said during an interview on "Fox News Sunday." "I'm telling you, we didn't make the request.
We denied it at the time.
The FAA denied it at the time," Al-Jubeir said.
Brit Hume, the Fox interviewer, noted that the FAA had qualified its denial by saying if such a request was made, he was not aware of it.
"The request was allegedly made to the airport, not to the FAA...
so that wouldn't preclude it," Hume said.
"The crown prince didn't even fly in on his aircraft," Al-Jubeir said.
"He flew in on Prince Bandar's aircraft.
The pilots on Prince Bandar's aircraft are former Air Force One pilots.
"With regard to no women on the ramp, there were a lot of women on the ramp, including American ladies who had lived in Saudi Arabia and whose husbands had retired (from Aramco).
There were television cameras there.
You can look at the images.
We have several hundred aircraft that fly into the US on diplomatic missions, and we have never made a request like this.
How America manages its air traffic control system is entirely up to it," said Al-Jubeir.

Putin is behind Lebed's death
This is exactly what Boris Berezovsky was hinting at in his brief comment concerning the death of Governor of Krasnoyarsk Region Alexander Lebed.
«The death of Alexander Lebed cannot be considered an accident».
This is what he stated in his interview to Grani.ru. It's a known fact that Berezovsky had a lond-lasting relationship with Krasnoyarsk Governor.
«In the argument between the ignorant President, who is a Lieutenant Colonel, and the brillant Governor General, in Russia, ignorance must win of course»,
- Berezovsky stated. – «Just because ignorance overpowers anything that is different from it, Russia suffers one defeat after another.
Alexander Ivanovich (Lebed) undoubtedly personifies the brightest pages of Russian latest modern history.
And he could not just humbly plunge into the bog that the entire Russian society is plunging into».
Berezovsky reminded about the conflict that occured between Krasnoyarsk Governor and the Kremlin during President Vladimir Putin's recent trip to Krasnoyarsk:
«There is an official version that President was dissatisfied with General Lebed's job on his post of the Governor of Krasnoyarsk Region.
It doesn't matter what the exact reason for the argument between the bright man and the ignorant man was.
It's all based on one thing - everlasting animal fear: an ignorant man is afraid of a man of brilliance.
During the past two years, when the government and the President himself were trampling the law, whether it was the defeat of NTV and TV-6, genocide in Chechnya, or silencing the story about the explosions of buildings in Moscow and Volgodonsk, the Kremlin created the situation, with its own actions, when nobody believes it.
Neither will anybody believe that the crash of the helicopter with Alexander Ivanovich (Lebed) on board was an accident», - Boris Berezovsky stressed.
