Italy Orders Arrest of 'CIA Operatives' for Kidnapping
ROME - An Italian judge has ordered the arrest of 13 U.S. citizens linked to the Central Intelligence Agency. Italian authorities charge the Americans abducted an Egyptian imam from Milan, in northern Italy, over two years ago.
...
Italian investigators say the U.S. agents flew the cleric to Egypt, after taking him to the U.S. base at Aviano, in northern Italy. He is said by family to have been tortured in an Egyptian jail.

Abu Omar was reportedly let out of jail by the Egyptian authorities due to health reasons. Disobeying requests for him to keep silent, the man called his wife in Italy and an imam at a Milan mosque.

Newspaper reports say wiretaps of those conversations by the Italian police revealed how the imam was spirited away and tortured using electric shocks by the Egyptian authorities. He was taken back to prison in Egypt and has not been heard of since.

3. Freepers are pissed at this story
I saw a thread yesterday where they were pissed about this. They were worried that the names of CIA agents were being leaked and that the families of these agents were in danger
