He claims that the crew onboard the Gulfstream identified themselves as "the Special Removal Unit" during radio communications on his flight to Jordan. Bull.........

The "no torture" bill going through congress has one very important goal, as descibed by what's-her-name on O'Reilly tonight--once you cut through all the justifications, it's to say that the President is the one responsible for torture being used on a suspect. It's about "accountability"--something that's never a question elsewhere in the government, or in terms of terrotist nations, only in our "torture" of suspect. What is means is that in any cases of torture found from now on, the one who's finally responsible is President Bush.
This story may or may not have legs, but at some point we will see Pelosi and Reid calling for an investigation of torture which will lead to the President.

sounds like the report is a wet dream and nothing more.

"Despite US laws that ban America from expelling or extraditing individuals to countries where torture occurs, Scott Horton -- an expert on international law who has examined CIA renditions -- estimates that 150 people have been picked up in the CIA dragnet since 2001." Scuze me, but handing a Saudi someone picked up in Iraq back to the Saudis is not Extradition, nor is it covered by such policy. The policy only applies if we grab him here in the US.
Just another twisting of the truth by the liberal press.

This is too good to be true. But coming from the dark side, I have my doubts. :O)

"
Maher Arar was arrested in 2002 by US officials at John F. Kennedy airport and then claims he was put on a "executive jet" which flew him to Amman, Jordan, before he was driven to Syria."
I'm sure Syria is giving us a helping hand. They really like helping us every chance they get.

If 150 "abductees" is "out of control" to this reporter, then what was September 11th?

Washington has admitted it is holding some suspects, including top Al-Qaeda operative Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, but it does not say where he is detained.
I picture Khalid's unit being boiled! Gotta love it.

Scheuer said there had been a legal process underlying early renditions, but as more suspects were rounded up following the September 11, 2001, attacks, "all we've done is create a nightmare." Where's the nightmare?? 550 POW's at Gitmo and another 150 "rendered" elsewhere. We're talking peanuts here. I think Scheuer is trying to capture a few minutes of fame. These are enemy troops out of uniform and should be shot after we extract all their information.
To: Jeff Chandler
We should have a "Unit Removal Unit" for terrorists.

By holding detainees without counsel or charges of wrongdoing, the administration of US President George W. Bush (news - web sites) "has jeopardized its chances of convicting hundreds of suspected terrorists, or even of using them as witnesses in almost any court in the world," the report said. I suppose it never crossed the writer's mind that this administration is less interested in bringing terrorists before a judge than it is in GETTING THE REQUISITE INFO for finding as many of them as we can, and KILLING THEM.
