Europe Says CIA Used Rendition

Apparently the charges that the US has been secretly sending terrorist suspects to foreign countries to be tortured, thereby skirting the law of the US, has been merely speculation. Even charges is too strong a term. Until now.

On Wed, the EU Accuses CIA of Secretly Transporting Terror Suspects. "European Parliament investigators said Wednesday they had uncovered evidence that the CIA has organized more than 1,000 flights through European airspace since 2001 as part of a secret program to transfer and detain terrorism suspects."

Apparently the committee has limited powers but we'll see where this goes.
