EU Countries Knew of Secret US Prisons
A new report shows that many EU countries "co-operated passively or actively (with the CIA)" in transporting or detaining terror suspects. There are at least 18 "extraordinary renditions" cited in the report. BBC has more on the story here, and you can read the report for yourself here (Hosted by The Jurist). Several lawsuits are already active in connection with these renditions and, if successful, I imagine we will see quite a few more. If it is found that these suspects were in fact tortured, I hope criminal punishment of those responsible follows.
