What about the brother who were in Guantanamo and have since been released and told their story and were clearly on rendition flights? What about the recent cases in Ethipoia were the British governement have involvement? What about all the logged flights that have been through UK airspace and airports such as in Derry?

The British governement played a role in British nationals who were on holiday, only to be kidnapped and put on rendition flights, that's what Ethipoia has to do with it.
The fact that they use the airspace shows in itself that the governement have a great feal to do with the torture that takes place.
They were not taken from this country but was it not the MI5 who told the CIA, FBI of people such as Jamil Al Banna being a threat? even after they cleared him of anything and he even after he asked them if it was ok for him to travel on business to which they said he could, only to have hime arrested by the US!

It's not about that, are you telling me the governement do not know what takes place when 'unidentified' flights are taking place from Derry for example?
It's not about that, are you telling me the governement do not know what takes place when 'unidentified' flights are taking place from Derry for example?nato flights are taking off all the time and for allies to question each other is not viable.if it has happened can you say how often.i think america is wrong in holding what they are claiming to be combatants without recourse to the law.my problem is that when i see certain arab countries with worse human rights issues not being persued in the same way i feel the muslim are blinkered in there approach to human rights.

We know what the Muslim countries are doing and they are just as bad, if not worse when it comes to treatement of detainees.
Have a look at this Beyond The Law (http://www.cageprisoners.com/beyondthelaw.pdf), it is very interesting! :up:
