How long do you think it will take before Americans are 'rendered'
to places like Tajikistan in CIA planes to face the same fate as Muslims or Arabs? We are very experienced in such matters now with Negroponte presiding over what is essentially a criminal enterprise that has extraordinary power over everyone in the planet. Leaders of foreign governments can be assassinated, citizens of the U.S. or foreign nations can be 'disappeared ' as in Argentina.The propaganda organs will ensure that the victims would be blamed as "terrorists".

We are entering a zone that would have been unthinkable only five years ago. That we have become what we used to condemn in others in the short span of five decades tells me that our adherence to the rule of law was only skin deep.It would come as a shock to most Americans to realize we are capable of just as much evil as the rest of them.But they won't care because America means well.

1. I'm sure it's already happening
We just aren't aware of it yet.

2. You don't need to do that
Just take them to Supermax lockdown and the insane parade begins. It's happening every day. Believe it.

3. Am am assuming you mean "renditioned," not "rendered"

This is renditioning:
ABC Frets Over Lack of Civil Rights for Guantanamo Detainees --9 ...

This is rendering:



Neither of which is far over the horizon.

5. What I was trying to say was to use Extraordinary Rendition.In trying
to convert it to a verb it turned into 'rendered' which, my grade school English teacher, would have strongly disapproved of.Thanks for pointing this out.I want to be on the right side of Mrs.Summers and any grammar transgressions would invite a cold stare from that formidable lady.

8. I've heard it called rendered too. It must be a military term
and they are not sticklers for grammar.

4. Who cares?
What's the difference anymore?

It's not like the rest of the world's governments aren't just as bad. Big shock: the US is run by criminals, like everyplace else. US companies want profits and don't give a shit about other things, just like everywhere else.

If I get rendered to some xxxistan, then I will at least have the pleasure of rendering a castration-force kick in the nads to one of my hosts before they fit me for the jumpsuit in Gitmo and start feeding me Cheerios.

I am done worrying about this stuff anymore. Life sucks, but I still like it.

Peace.

6. The guys in Tajikistan are known to boil their prisoners in oil. I have
always wanted to have the full Spa treatment courtesy of the U.S. Government. Who says the best things in life aren't free?

7. Too bad this Dark Age's administrators
have weapons of Mass Destruction that they are willing and itching to use.

"Individuals" have always been "disappeared" by this government (think Kennedy). Unfortunately, this new crew is Hell Bent on Total Annihilation.
