The CIA arrests and tor­tures a random German cit­izen by mis­take, real­ises its mis­take and then aban­dons the guy on a coun­try road in Albania asking the German gov­ern­ment to cover its butt. Mean­while, another ‘mis­taken’ arrest appar­ently involved a pro­fessor dobbed in by an al-Qaeda oper­at­ive he gave a bad grade at uni. That makes me feel so safe under our new laws.
