Look at post #37 and check the third picture. That's no helicopter.
The identities of the company's owners are obscure at best.
The most recent records at the Massachusetts secretary of state's office list Bryan P. Dyess as the president and member manager and Mary Anne Phister as treasurer. No Massachusetts address could be found for Phister. The only Bryan P. Dyess that a Globe reporter could locate receives his mail at a post office box in Arlington, Va., on North George Mason Drive, 7 miles from the Pentagon.
Records with the Federal Aviation Administration list the current vice president as Colleen A. Bornt, whose only address appears to be a post office box in Chevy Chase, Md. Records indicate that both Dyess, 48, and Bornt, 54, received their Social Security numbers in the mid-1990s.

It's called outsourcing.
These people would be upset if the US caught Bin Laden and used torture to extract information.If the subject is a known terrorist who might have information that could save lives I say break out the nutcrackers,jumper cables,pregnant women and anything else need to make them talk.

Okay. Good deal. That's more like it.
I think a lot of it has to do with plausible deniability and the politics if the CIA were conducting those operations with some official sanction.
A lot of time there were legitimate missions but covert activities were done in conjunction. For instance Air America dropped tons of rice and food to feed starving Laotians in the mountains. They also dropped weapons so the rebels could fight the Pathet Lao rebels and the NVA troops that were transporting equipment along the Ho Chi Minh trail through a "neutral" country.
We tried that, but it seems that a G-V cruising into various terrorist hotspots with hooded baddies being escorted onto it sticks out like a sore thumb.
At least it's good to know someone is serious about interrogation.
Laugh while you can, Monkey-Boy!
LOL!
Travel to exotic locations, meet interesting people, and drop them off with the local police.
I'd volunteer for duty if I had enough training hours..
