5. Won't they be deported by the USA to serve their sentences?
Or is the United States a universe onto itself, above the law?
Why, yes we are.

14. Yes, extradited. Why didn't they appear for trial? BUSH--but that changed
and we like to assume the rule of law was restored with our Sidley Austin intern in the White House. No sign yet that this is so, regretably.

27. The rendition program began under Clinton and Gore
Edited on Wed Nov-04-09 03:13 PM by Juche
It violates several domestic and international laws, and leaders of both parties (Clinton, Gore, Bush, Cheney) can probably be brought to trial because of it. The desire to believe 'those bad republicans over there' are the only ones breaking the law is not true. I believe Obama himself has broken the law by trying to cover up crimes like this.
Which is why nothing will happen. As long as politicians control what happens legally they are not going to sacrifice leaders of both parties. It is going to take the domestic courts or international courts and legislatures to do something about this.
Rendition is still going on, so put Lord Zero's name on the list.
