This of course will get little traction on a site where all of the 'thought leaders' are employed or bribed by the same intelligence agencies these people have a problem with.

#edit flag away you echo-chamber loving fools of anti-intellectualism.

I bet more people register to view my flagged comment than do to engage in the farce of a comment board you Marxist fools run.

That's real optimistic of the Guardian but somehow I doubt there's all that much grass roots support against rendition flights. We live in an age where "Muslim ban" sounds like appropriate policy to about half the population.

In Democracy the people get the government they deserve. Guess we really don't deserve human rights and habeus corpus.

Clearly, there has been an oversight. The intelligence officials responsible for employment and bribes should contact me at their earliest convenience to correct this.

That's just what a CIA shill would say!

The value systems of the people running this must be severely distorted. Can't torture at home so let's fly people to some dictatorship to get it done there. I guess it's the same mindset that caused a democratically elected president in Iran to be overthrown and replaced by a dictator in order to save freedom and democracy.

I'm sorry? Did you have something to add, or did your frantic mashing of the oversocialized button get in the way of your argument (and grammar)?

It is the same value system that created Guantanamo Bay Prison.
