Ending "Torture"?
After the Left has been accusing the Bush administration of violating the Geneva Conventions and American ideals, it's looking like Obama is going to keep the "secret prisons" and enhanced interogation techniques. Moe Lane has a detailed summary:
Under executive orders issued by Obama recently, the CIA still has authority to carry out what are known as renditions, secret abductions and transfers of prisoners to countries that cooperate with the United States.
Current and former U.S. intelligence officials said that the rendition program might be poised to play an expanded role going forward because it was the main remaining mechanism — aside from Predator missile strikes — for taking suspected terrorists off the street.
