‘Torture jet’ flies back to Scotland

[struggle4progress]

A CIA jet which takes terror suspects to countries where torture is routinely used during interrogation has again landed at Glasgow airport en route to Baghdad.

The Boeing 737, which has changed its identity several times, landed in Glasgow at 6am on Monday and took off for Iraq at 8.39am. <snip>

The Herald has revealed how a Gulfstream jet, owned by a CIA front company, used Prestwick airport on numerous occasions in the wake of the September 11 attacks and refuelled there last summer. The Gulfstream visited Glasgow airport nine times in 2003 and on five occasions stayed for one or two nights.

The Boeing 737 is also understood to be owned by a CIA front company. It has visited Glasgow on several occasions, sometimes staying overnight. The jet has also used RAF Northolt, where the Royal Flight is stationed. <more>

1. The G-5 was not big enough ...

Now we have a B-737 hauling tortue victims. Sorry .. this is not my America.

2. Meanwhile, the UK pretends to be opposed to torture

It's as if honesty, integrity and good will toward all homosapiens have been wiped off the face of the planet.

3. The article needs to be forwarded to the Iraqi insurgency.

*Why* should *our* tax dollars pay for GOPervert fantasies?

4. I expect that Iraqis can learn enough about torture simply ...

... by talking to their neighbors.

5. They got Lieberman and Zell Miller aboard for their weekly head thumping?

Makes you wonder.
