How they spotted the CIA torture taxis

Postby Chacal » Tue Oct 17, 2006 2:04 am

Link from fark.com - a fascinating account of how plane spotters unravelled the mystery of the planes used by CIA (with US army complicity) to send suspects to be tortured overseas. Sherlock Holmes has nothing on these guys.

Seems like kind of a dull hobby usually, although in this case it was certainly an interesting find.

Go figure this one out: We sent an innocent Canadian to Syria (by way of Jordan) where he was tortured.

The CIA has a friendship with Syria?? Aren't they supposed to be some sort of enemy to us??????
