Oh, I see. You regard it as wrong to criticise US policy.
Cute sarcasm, but I'm game.

I have no problem with critcising the US in any policy, if you like check my post history, I do it myself regularly. I do however dislike it when people (posters here, media, governments) are selective in thier choices of what to criticise and fail to give an accrate description of said topic.

Dont take my word for it, have a look at an italian paper it isnt a trial of 26 CIA agents, only is it? Again, this wasnt "U.S. Policy" exclusively, host governments were in on it, like it or not thats how it went down.

By all means critique the U.S. and its polices as long, and as loudly as you like, but by not acknowledging other countries were involved (considering you werent the one to bring that issue up as part of the discussion mate) you devalue your criticism.

I think we've had enough of that for the last few years, I think its time for some of our european friends to belly up to the bar and take thier lumps too.

I do concede they wont be as many, but the rendition program isnt an exclusive CIA/U.S. policy, and I care far to much for you and my other europeans friends credability not to remind of that fact.
