(2,016 posts)I clarified what I had said earlier by saying that, yes, a rendition should be made at the condition there will be no torture.
Now, what are your points you feel I did not address?
That some of the suspects might be innocent? In what would that be a reason procluding the US from sending suspects to their country of origin? Because the alternative is to keep all suspects in the name of the few who are innocent? That's giving a unilateral guarantee that, once you're a prioner of the US, you are entitled to the full protection a US citizen would enjoy, no matter who you are and no matter where you have been caught.
detention of Manning. Just checked. he was in maximum isolation. Pretty tough, but the UN rapporteur probably stretched the point when calling that torture.
