| ABC: EU report will say CIA conducted 1,245 kidnapping missions
by Arlen Parsa
Just how much extraordinary rendition has been going on? ABC News reports, quite a bit:
The CIA flew 1,245 secret flights into European airspace, according to a European Parliament draft report obtained by ABC News.
The report is the result of a year-long investigation into secret CIA “extraordinary rendition” flights and prisons in Europe.
[…]
But citing records from an informal meeting of European and NATO foreign ministers last December that included Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, the Parliament’s draft report concludes “member states had knowledge of the programme of extraordinary rendition and secret prisons.”
Note that this not only violates international human rights law that the United States is a party to (specifically the ICCPR), but it also violates domestic law of the countries involved, because they are all democracies. According to ABC, the EU is preparing to call the CIA’s rendition program what it is: illegal.
