Oh my, another ignorant piece of shit who thinks he knows all.
Read:
"The criminal prosecution of terrorist suspects has
not been a priority for the Bush Administration,
which has focussed, rather, on preventing additional
attacks. But some people who have been fighting
terrorism for many years are concerned about
unintended consequences of the Administration's
radical legal measures. Among these critics is
Michael Scheuer, a former C.I.A. counter-terrorism
expert who helped establish the practice of
rendition. Scheuer left the agency in 2004, and has
written two acerbic critiques of the government's
fight against Islamic terrorism under the pseudonym
Anonymous, the most recent of which, 'Imperial
Hubris,' was a best-seller.
Not long ago, Scheuer, who lives in northern
Virginia, spoke openly for the first time about how
he and several other top C.I.A. officials set up the
program, in the mid-nineties."
Michael Scheuer has made some appearances on TV such as "Face The Nation",
interviewed by Tim Russert. The Italian authorities should issue an arrest warrant
for him.
Continue your education (BTW, this is from The New Yorker, Feb 2005):
"Scheuer sought the counsel of Mary Jo White, the
former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of
New York, who, along with a small group of F.B.I.
agents, was pursuing the 1993 World Trade Center
bombing case. In 1998, White's team obtained an
indictment against bin Laden, authorizing U.S.
agents to bring him and his associates to the United
States to stand trial. From the start, though, the C.I.
A. was wary of granting terrorism suspects the due
process afforded by American law."
Don't expect the CIA to turn over their agents for trial in Italy, they
believe they are above all laws.
Continue reading:
"The agency realized that 'we had to
come up with a third party'."
"The obvious choice, Scheuer said, was Egypt. The
largest recipient of U.S. foreign aid after Israel,
Egypt was a key strategic ally, and its secret police
force, the Mukhabarat, had a reputation for brutality.
Egypt had been frequently cited by the State
Department for torture of prisoners. According to a
2002 report, detainees were "stripped and
blindfolded; suspended from a ceiling or doorframe
with feet just touching the floor; beaten with fists,
whips, metal rods, or other objects; subjected to
electrical shocks; and doused with cold water [and]
sexually assaulted.'"
What more do you need to know? Oh that's right, the "decade" part.
Read on:
"In 1995, Scheuer said, American agents proposed
the rendition program to Egypt, making clear that it
had the resources to track, capture, and transport
terrorist suspects globally -including access to a
small fleet of aircraft. Egypt embraced the idea."
>The rest of your spiel was just as irrational as that lie.
No sir, the rest of my post was as accurate and truthful as the above.
You can probably find this article online if some monkey can show you
how to use a search engine. The author is Jane Mayer and the title of
the article is "OUTSOURCING TORTURE: The secret history of America's
'extraordinary rendition' program." Issue of 2005-02-14

"According to Michael Moloney, Gehring had even applied to
the CIA, and used to tell a story about it. The marine from
Dayton 'had no academic credentials,' Moloney relates, but
the CIA 'liked his attitude. "The world is full of commie bastards
and all I wanted to do at that time was kill, kill, kill."'
Moloney quotes Gehring as having said."
