I guess he has good reason on this one; everyone knows what happens to you when you cross these guys.
"Italy seeks jail time for 26 Americans in rendition case; Prosecutor urges repudiation of abduction, torture" by Colleen Barry, Associated Press | October 1, 2009
MILAN - A prosecutor asked a Milan court yesterday to sentence 26 Americans to jail terms ranging from 10 to 13 years for the abduction of an Egyptian terrorism suspect.
It is the first trial anywhere scrutinizing the CIA’s extraordinary renditions.
As he completed his closing arguments, prosecutor Armando Spataro argued that a guilty verdict and a strong sentence for the defendants, most of them CIA agents, would help restore confidence in Western democracies eroded by tactics employed in the fight against terrorism.
No, it is going to take a LOT MORE THAN THAT!!!
See: Italy Ex-President - CIA And Mossad Ran 9/11
Yeah, the TRUTH ABOUT that DAMNABLE FALSE FLAG is a start, and YOU of ALL PEOPLE should know, Italians!
Spataro requested the highest sentence of 13 years for Jeffrey Castelli, the former Rome CIA station chief, who he said coordinated the 2003 kidnapping with Nicolo Pollari, former head of Italian military intelligence. Spataro sought 13 years for Pollari....
Ever hear of Operation Gladio, readers?
'nuff said, huh?
The prosecution’s closing arguments signal the final phase in the more than 2 1/2-year-old trial. Nearly a dozen defense lawyers now must make their case. A verdict is expected possibly by early November.
Prosecutors say Egyptian cleric Osama Moustafa Hassan Nasr, a suspected terrorist also known as Abu Omar, was kidnapped from a Milan street in broad daylight on Feb. 17, 2003. Nasr was then allegedly driven from Milan to the Aviano Air Base in northern Italy, flown to Ramstein Air Base in southern Germany and then to Egypt, where he was allegedly tortured. Nasr has been released, but remains in Egypt and has not testified at the trial.
Human rights advocates contend that renditions were the CIA’s way to outsource the torture of prisoners to countries where it was practiced.
Yeah, you know, if we didn't want to do it ourselves!
Is there NOT ONE THING AmeriKa does NOT OUTSOURCE?
The CIA has declined to comment on the Italian case. Al the Americans are being tried in absentia and are considered fugitives.
You mean, OBAMA DID NOT HAND THEM OVER?
So why are we bombing innocent men, women, and children in Afghanistan and Pakistan again?
The Italian government has denied any involvement, and all the defendants have denied the charges. In his closing, Spataro said Western democracies cannot accept arguments that the rules of engagement have been altered by the threat posed by international terrorism.
“We don’t have an alternative,’’ he said, “but to have absolute respect for the law, even where it seems difficult. Only this will give us credibility.’’
A little. I appreciate the effort, but get back to me when that FESTERING BOIL of an ABOMINABLE LIE is PIERCED!!!
