    BERLIN - Arrest warrants were issued for 13 people in connection with the alleged CIA-orchestrated kidnapping of a German citizen in the agency's extraordinary rendition program, a Munich prosecutor said Wednesday. Prosecutor Christian Schmidt-Sommerfeld told The Associated Press that the warrants were issued in the last few days against the 13 alleged kidnappers on suspicion of false imprisonment and serious bodily harm in connection with the abduction of Khaled al-Masri, a German citizen of Lebanese descent.

    Al-Masri maintains he was abducted in December 2003 at the Serbian-Macedonian border and flown by the CIA to a detention center in Kabul, Afghanistan, where he says he was abused.

    Bush is talking about democracy and is preaching the world on it. How sad and pathetic a person with gangsta mentality is a commander and chief in one of the most economically advanced country in the world.

    Everyone make mistakes, but I think this action was nice for a foreign spy agency, considering the predicted negative outcome a release would have.

    Gtech is a trained expert in hand to hand fighting with teenagers in high school who try to avoid taking the recruiting forms. He is just waiting that Iraq becomes safe enough that they can open the high schools, so he can enlist and serve his country. :D

    It doesn't seem to list what evidence, if any, is being used as a basis for the warrants against these suspected CIA agents.

    Higher than the approval rating of those who blow shit up in the name of their religion.

    Even if it's true, it's not a big deal other then that they made a mistake, arrested the wrong guy and released him after they found out that it was the wrong guy.

    This report came from AP, so it's much more likely to be true than if it was a guardian article.

    The approval rating on my team as a contrast to your team is way above 50%. :D

    Seems like your team needs some major policy overhaul if they want to stay in business;0

    It very well could be by now. In September of last year, support was 49.9%

    Another one of those "tiny minorities," no doubt ;)
