"Extraordinary rendition"

And what might “extraordinary rendition” be? A superb version of a classic song or symphony, perhaps?


Well no, it’s the latest Happy-Face-sounding phrase from the neocons, all scrubbed-up and squeaky-clean, to describe odious criminal behavior which they sanction.


Extraordinary rendition is when “American counter-terrorism agents seize and transport suspects to third countries without seeking court permission” where they sometimes are tortured, according to the L.A. Times.


“Seize and transport” of course is just another way of saying “kidnapping.”
