US lied to UK over state sponsored kidnapping

US lied to UK over state sponsored kidnapping

The Central Intelligence Agency, amongst other things, is an intelligence gathering department. In 2002, the CIA kidnapped 2 foreign nationals to fly them to Guantanamo Bay. The planes transporting them "landed on the UK dependent territory of Diego Garcia" to refuel. Why has it taken 6 years for the information to get from the CIA to the UK?

And, why did it take 6 days for Miliband to release the information? Could it be because of the big news story from Ipswich? Good day to bury bad news?

Bullshit Alert.

CIA director Mike Hayden said "given our mission, CIA could have no interest in a process destined to produce bad intelligence".

So, it was all a big mistake?

The trouble with the U.S is they believe thier own bullshit.

I suspect there are many lies told from country to country, It's the way the U.S thinks it can lie, cheat and bully everyone else.

John R. Bolton was asked Tuesday under what conditions would the U.S drop it's economic sanctions on Cuba, to which he replied 'If Castro was dead'

These people are beyond trust and yet we as a country tag along, No matter the government.

The U.S people in general do not relate to the outside world, so any action such as sponsored kidnapping is probably quite acceptable.
