You think that happens in our great christian nation?

In fact, since 2001, the Central Intelligence Agency has captured some three thousand people who have been ferried around the world in a fleet of special planes, to be ‘rendered’.




According to Der Spiegel, there have been 437 CIA flights which have either landed in Germany or crossed German air space. The French are aware of two jets which carried prisoners to Guantánamo. In Britain, 210 flights are alleged to have used British airports. And in Portugal there have been reported 34 such landings. Ten CIA flights are alleged to have touched down at Tenerife and Majorca, whilst 67 flights have, it is claimed, landed in Iceland since the year 2001. In Italy there have been 17 secret flights by the CIA which landed there between July 2002 and May 2005, if we are to believe Corriere della Sera. Plane spotters have been monitoring some of this bizarre tourist trade. Their web pages have listed some of the movements of the flights of a Gulfstream V, one of the CIA’s planes, which is recorded as having landed at Jakarta’s military airport and taken away Muhammad Saad Iqbal Madni, suspected of working for al Qaeda, to interrogation in Egypt. The plane spotters’ lists track the Gulfstream V to Islamabad, Karachi, Riyadh in Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Tashkent in Uzbekistan, Baghdad, Kuwait City, Baku in Azerbaijan, and Rabat in Morocco. The same plane has landed often at Dulles International Airport in the United States, at Jordan’s military airport in Amman, and at airports in Frankfurt, Glasgow and Larnaca.
