OH. MY. GOD.
This is sickening...

Khaled el-Masri says his strange and violent trip into the void began with a bus ride on New Year's Eve 2003.
When he returned to this city five months later, his friends didn't believe the odyssey he recounted. Masri said he was kidnapped in Macedonia, beaten by masked men, blindfolded, injected with drugs and flown to Afghanistan, where he was imprisoned and interrogated by U.S. intelligence agents. He said he was finally dumped in the mountains of Albania...
"I have no indication that Masri is not telling the truth," Munich prosecutor Martin Hofmann said in a recent interview. Hair analysis — which can identify malnourishment and whether someone spent time in a certain part of the world — suggests that Masri was maltreated and could have been in Afghanistan in early 2004, said his lawyer, Manfred Gnjidic...
Ten days later, on Jan. 23, a man with a video camera told Masri to stand against a wall and ordered him to say that he was in good physical condition and was being taken to the airport to fly to Germany, Masri said. He was then blindfolded and put in a car.
"We drove for a while and I could hear airplanes. I was led into a room. The door closed behind me and I was beaten from all sides for about one minute. They bent my arms to my back and cut off my clothes. I heard the click, click of a camera. For a moment, they took off the blindfold. I saw seven to eight men all dressed in black and wearing masks. I tried to keep on my underpants but they ripped them off. They put me in diapers and a dark blue sweatsuit with the legs and sleeves cut out."
He said he was led to a plane with his hands tied behind his back and shackles on his feet. "They put earplugs in my ears and a sack over my head. They put me on the floor and injected me with something. I went black. At some point, I smelled the kind of alcohol they have in a hospital. I received another injection."
Aviation documents viewed by the Los Angeles Times show that a jet registered to a U.S. company landed at the Skopje airport at 8:51 p.m., Jan. 23, 2004. The plane's tail number was N313P and was registered to Premier Executive Transport Services Inc., a Massachusetts firm with reported connections to the CIA. No phone numbers are listed for the company or its directors...

Hmmmmm.....
I voted for Bush, Im for people that respect the flag, respect our beloved country, and if Kerry would of won, I would of course respected him in every way fashion and feasible,because you respect the government and president because that's the way I was brought up, a proud American , and proud of our country. For the people that were not brought up this way, I pity thier loss souls, and my God be with them.
Number 1,
And to all , don't be in my city burning the flag if you know what's best.
Number 1: So even though it's someone's constitutional right to burn the flag, you would threaten them? I'm just curious.
Hi ya Moxie,
Hmmm.. I never mention'd a threat, so I can't go there. Only some opinion's may think it might be, you see , ever here the old saying, a villian in a town is no good? So the town ranned him out?
Now for a cup of coffee.. Whew, I thought that was going to be a toughy question, remember that a needle in a haystack is never lost too, lol, come by an tag me , I'll visit you from now and then, nice place!
"And to all , don't be in my city burning the flag if you know what's best." - I dunno, that sounds kind of threatening... How else would you take that statement?
And no, I can't say I've heard an old saying "a villian in a town is no good? So the town ranned him out?".
You are an interesting, if not a little odd, fellow. Take care!
Hmmm.. Still on that threatening issue, actually if you look at the bright side of the statement, and positive, not negative, could be helpful and a safty warning , I mean, no one wants to get hurt with rock's, lol...At least I heard of this happening somewhere in the news before.. Of course, I would hear it on the news, political gatherings of frustrations or scenes , I don't attend, and quite frankly don't engage in. I vote, I watch, and I read....
