Those Fucking Italians have indicted 26 Americans for breaking the law!!!! Un-fucking-believable...
Who the fuck do they think we are? Indicting 26 Americans for our most necessary and vital pogrom of "extraordinary rendition"... It's unconscionable, where do they get off?

First... they fall all over themselves to help us invade Iraq. The Niger Documents may not have been forged by Italy (they most likely were) but they damn sure helped sell their authenticity to our unsuspecting President. Their Pre-Iraq Liberation assessment was vital to bolstering our erroneous claims of Iraqi WMD's, Saddams links to Terrorism and the Iraqi's overall lack of fashion sense. It was Italy that vociferously joined with American forces in the invasion of Iraq's reconstruction money and it was Italy who allowed us to land our planes in their country for this "illegal" enterprise... Now the hypocrites have indicted 26 Americans... mostly CIA agents because we took the necessary steps to violate international laws in order to pretend to secure our own security interests; all the while securing everyone's economic interests (and by everyone, I mean major U.S. corporations).

As a result of this ridiculous and non-binding indictment of our most vital CIA assets and pogroms, I think we should immediately seek sanctions against Italy and begin preparations for the Liberation of the Italian people from the deceitful government that seeks to pretend it had no part in any of this fiasco that has erupted over their deceptions. I see no reason why we, as Americans, can't figure out some way to blame everything on Italy and walk away from any criminal prosecutions as a result of our illegal actions. A real President would take the bull by the horns and say... "Dead or Alive!! Yipee Kie-Yeah, Mother-Fucker!!! or I'll be back!!!" and then by God he'd do something strong and Presidential! I support this President's decision to extraordinarily rendit people who look like terrorists and who have brown skin and I used to appreciate Italy's help in this endeavor... Now, Fuck You Italy... We're going to bomb you back to the Age of Enlightenment you ignorant sons of bitches if you don't immediately return our assets... or at least refund the money it cost us to train them...


Italy orders CIA kidnapping trial
Osama Mustafa Hassan, also known as Abu Omar, in a file photo


Mr Hassan says he was tortured for four years in Egypt
(Wah Wah Wah... look at this guy... doesn't he look like a terrorist? Shit, I'd bet Jesus would have tortured the shit of him too... Godless heathen that he is...)

An Italian judge has ordered 26 US citizens - most of them CIA agents - to stand trial over the kidnap of an Egyptian cleric in Milan in 2003.

Osama Mustafa Hassan was allegedly (allegedly? now we don't know for sure? come on!!!) seized by the CIA and flown to Egypt, where he says he was tortured. (Electrocution on a wet mattress and mildly severe beatings are not spelled out in the Geneva Conventions and is therefore and ergo not defined as torture.)

Five Italians were also indicted by the judge, including Italy's ex-military intelligence chief, Nicolo Pollari.

The case would be the first criminal trial over the secret US practice known as "extraordinary rendition".

During rendition, people suspected of involvement in terror activities are taken from one country and flown to another, where many claim (claimed being the operative word here... aren't they trained to claim they were tortured?) they are tortured.


We need to wage a campaign to save our hypocritically detained CIA assets and NO OPTION SHOULD BE OFF THE TABLE (THAT'S RIGHT PRESIDENT CORLEONE, it's Horseheads for you!!!)

10. I would say that if they intend to carry through with this indictment, they would have to indict *.
It seems only reasonable... the President ordered the program and shares in the responsibility for it's implementation. If our CIA assets are guilty, then so are those who facilitated and ordered the program.

11. As this kind of satire is generally lost on freepers...
...it might be an interesting exercise to post this at Free Republic and see how they respond.

14. I don't have the heart to read their assent to these heinous sentiments...
The Freepers are hateful and ugly and I try and avoid them at all costs. I don't read their site or engage with them in any manner of discourse... civil or otherwise. I think the best strategy in dealing with the devil is to just focus on what is good, mocking what is evil and allowing evil to seek evils ends. I'm sure they'll come up with something equally as vile all on their own. You can repost this there if you like but their hateful assent to evil just disappoints me.

17. In reflecting on your response...
...I've thought better of my idea -- probably wouldn't be too amusing at all.

12. There are several current and retired members of the
Italian CIA as well as possibly Berlisconi edging into the sights of a little more honest Italian justice system.
Here is something to chew on:

This is pretty current.

16. Obviously, those troops that were diverted to Afghanistan
should have been diverted to invade Italy.
