This is an agency that has the right to shove fingers up your ass just to see if there's anything up there worth reading. It ain't BS. They do have to be polite and treat each individual with respect but searching things you're moving from one country to another - hell YES they have every right to search it in any way they choose.
Ramster, I used to travel internationally all the time and I've been pulled 3 times to be searched. I don't think they logged it, flagged it or it had any effect on my additional times through customs for any country. I wouldn't worry about it too much but I would shave and leave the turban at home.
Travelling tip. Never run through the airport screaming "For the love of Allah!" and you should be OK.
