A Simple Question About Rendition

Here's another simple question about rendition. What's the difference between these unidentified "undesirables" being kidnapped, drugged and transported to unidentified prison camps in eastern Europe with no charge made against them and no legal assistance available to them and the "undesirables" who suffered the same fate during World War II while the rest of Europe turned a blind eye?

And here's another simple question. Will these prison camps one day be referred to as concentration camps?

And will the names of these camps become as familiar to us as the ones we already know so well?

I know there are people who try to justify what the USA is doing - but most of us know right from wrong.

Tes, that is exactly the question. Nice post, Quarsan.

I meant Yes, that is exactly the question. But me and the internet aren't getting on well today.

Perhaps the CIA has branched out into weekend city breaks?

Or they're lying through their teeth and have set up a network of concentration camps, where people can 'disappear' into, for no reason whasoever, where torture is the norm, whose inmates are beyond any law or even recognition.

hmm, wonder where that path ends...

Oh.

Good question that cuts to the core of the problem, if its all legal why do it. What purpose does it serve?

Here is another question: Whats difference between now and 4th of July 1776 when America claimed to nail its principles to the mast. The Decelarion of Independence states

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it,...."

Fine words and amongst the crimes listed that justified rebelion.

"For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:...

For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:

For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:"
