Britain is our sure mirror these days

According to the Guardian, there are some mighty pissed off MPs in Jolly old England.

Apparently, there has been a new revelation that flys in the face of what they have bbeen told about the CIA renditions and British air space.

While Jack Straw and others have denied any knowledge on any such flights, the National Air-traffic Services confirmed yesterday that there have been around 200 in the past 5 years.

(Wait just a damn minute here; 5 years? The attacks on the U.S. are not 5 years old yet. When did the renditions actually start? What was the first date listed? The question isn't as dumb as it sounds when you are aware that the NSA extraordinary spying began long before 9/11. See Jason Leopold's report on this at truthout.org, probably in the archives by now.)

Blair and the Brits have much more to worry about than good old lawless, Bushite America. There are not only huge political ramifications to this, but big legal ones as well. Unlike Lawless George, Blair signed on to the World Court as part of the EU. The world Court takes a dim view of war crimes.

....and the truth shall set you free.
