Newsweek looks at "extraordinary rendition", ie: The CIA abducting people and flying them to places where they can be tortured. They touch on the case of Maher Arar, the Canadian that the U.S. sent to Syria for a year of torture, but also talk about people like Khaled el-Masri, who was abducted off of a bus in Macedonia and flown to Afghanistan on a CIA owned 737. (thanks to RC3).
