ITALIANS DRAW RED LINES, SIDE WITH EVIL
FAUX NEWS YOU CAN USE
(November 2009, Rome - Italy, Faux News) - Italian judge convicted
23 American CIA officers to 5 to 8 years in jail for what some European
media called ‘kidnapping in Italy’.
The 23 were announced guilty of allegedly grabbing and smuggling
a Muslim cleric off the streets of Milan back in 2003. The cleric was
alleged to have spent nearly 5 years in prison without charge. His
claims of being tortured by CIA while in prison have not been
confirmed independently.
US officials have already expressed disappointment over the Italian
verdict, casting doubt whether such verdicts have jurisdiction over
CIA officers.
The officials got indirect support from Amnesty International in
the United States. According to Tom Parker, an AI official in Washington,
the Italian verdict is damaging to America's national security.
Meanwhile, a senior legal analyst who was speaking to Faux News in
Washington D.C. on condition of anonymity suggested that the verdict
was influenced heavily by certain groups whose allegiance to freedom
and democracy is yet to be verified.
