Contrary to what Nanny, Disney and saccharine mainstream media outlets would have us believe, there is no such thing as good and evil (black or white); when it comes to global power games there are merely shades of grey:
"At least 54 countries including Syria, Iran, Sweden, Iceland, and UK offered CIA “covert support” to detain, transport, interrogate and torture suspects in the years following the 9/11 attacks, according to a new report.Source RT.
The 213-page report released by the Open Society Justice Initiative (OSJI), a New York-based human rights organization, documents wide-ranging international involvement in the American campaign against Al-Qaeda.
The report, titled Globalizing Torture, provides a detailed account of other countries covertly helping the US to run secret prisons, also known as ‘black sites’ on their territory and allowing the CIA to use national airports for refueling while transporting prisoners.
Countries listed in the report include many from the Middle East and Europe.
The OSJI identifies Syria and Iran as two participants of the CIA’s rendition program.
“Syria detained, interrogated, and tortured extraordinarily-rendered individuals. It was one of the ‘most common destinations for rendered suspects’,” states the report. “The CIA rendered at least nine individuals to Syria between December 2001 and October 2002.”"
FYI, I wrote about this five years ago in February 2008:
"How nice to see Nanny apologising, for once, over something that she said that she said that was based on "incorrect" information.
Nanny has been very embarrassed, and a tad pissed off with her chums in the Bush administration, over the revelation that previous denials about the US using British airports for rendition flights were in fact bollocks.
Can you guess what the problem was?
Yes, that's right; seemingly the US has been using British airports for rendition flights!
Gosh, what a surprise!"

As a result of these revelations the Taliban are no longer going to allow captured foreign soldiers to use the spa and massage facilities in their detention centres, steak and lobster is now off the menu, and they will also have their television privileges revoked.
