ACLU Challenges Jeppesen Dataplan and CIA Rendition

Back


From aclu.org/rendition: The ACLU filed a federal lawsuit against Jeppesen Dataplan, Inc., a subsidiary of Boeing Company, on behalf of three victims of the U.S. government's unlawful "extraordinary rendition" program. The lawsuit charges that Jeppesen knowingly provided direct flight services to the CIA that enabled the clandestine transportation of Binyam Mohamed, Abou Elkassim Britel and Ahmed Agiza to secret overseas locations where they were subjected to torture and other forms of cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment.

"an extraordinary rendition program is necessary for the extraordinary circumstances we live in today."
Ahh, just like Hitler needed the KZ camps due to the extraordinary circumstance of having Jews living in his country. He saw them as a threat to Germany.
Does the term "slippery slope" mean anything to you?

In the name of national security,a security apparatus could be given blanket power to do anything without accountability to society.

The danger is that what if perverts have infiltrated such an agency and start to perpetuate a program to abuse people for the sake of it.

It could happened to anyone.

In the last days of the old Roman Empire,the Praetorian Guards in Rome did just that and held the Emperor and families captive.

What happens if CIA is infiltrated? It is too horrible to...

Anyone obstructing or intefering with federal lawsuit work is committing a federal offense and faces five years in federal prison. This includes any kind of harassment, the blocking or delaying of emails, interfering with internet service or computer operation, spreading slander or defamation to impede the lawsuit investigation or lawsuit work, and similar.

I've seen him do it on other ACLU vids, it's called "slagging": Just making the same disparaging complaints whether relevant or not.

stupid idiots

ACLU: We misread US v Miller, and we're sticking by our incorrect interpretation of the 2nd Amendment.

Excerpt:
The ACLU interprets the Second Amendment as a collective right. Therefore, we disagree with the Supreme Court's decision in D.C. v. Heller.

Quit slagging, if it's not relevant, it doesn't belong here as a comment.

Jeppesen provided auxiliary services with knowledge of acts these services supported. I, for one, have a problem with people profiting (with my tax dollars) from such deplorable acts aimed at marginalizing due process of law conventions. Legally, I think the ACLU will need to show that Jeppesen knew what the CIA was doing to be compromised.

Ok, I am a legal idiot, but why can't the ACLU, or the grievanced individuals sue the U.S. government? Isn't going after Jeppesen, like going after a delivery boy for the Mafia?
