IAA and Gov rubberstamping kidnap and torture. US stfile case

ACLU V Jeppesen

In July 2002, Ethiopian citizen Binyam Mohamed, while in CIA custody, was stripped, blindfolded, shackled, dressed in a tracksuit, strapped to the seat of a plane and flown to Morocco where he was secretly detained for 18 months and interrogated and tortured by Moroccan intelligence services.

238. Flight records from July 2002 confirm that the Gulfstream V jet aircraft
owned and operated by Premier Executive Transportation Services (“PETS”) and Aero
Contractors Limited (“ACL”) departed Islamabad, Pakistan on July 21, 2002 at 5:35 p.m.
and arrived in Rabat, Morocco, the next morning, July 22, 2002 at 3:42 a.m. before
departing Rabat an hour later, at 4:44 a.m., for Shannon, Ireland, arriving there at 7:21
a.m. Then departing on 23rd to Dulles Washington and then on to Johnston County NC.

The U.S. government asked a federal court late on Friday to dismiss a lawsuit against a unit of Boeing Co that charges the firm helped fly suspects abroad to secret prisons."Allowing plaintiffs' claims to proceed would risk the disclosure of highly classified information concerning the alleged 'intelligence activities, sources, and methods' of the CIA," said the filing, signed by Acting Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Bucholtz.

The American Civil Liberties Union first filed a complaint in May accusing Jeppesen Dataplan Inc of providing flight and logistical support to at least 15 aircraft on 70 "extraordinary-rendition" flights.The complaint to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California alleged Jeppesen "falsified flight plans to European air traffic control authorities to avoid public scrutiny of CIA flights."

The ACLU filed the suit on behalf of five men who say the CIA had them flown to foreign prisons for interrogations and torture.

The Shannon Guantanamo Torture link is still open and operating sometimes several times each week.
See report http://www.indymedia.ie/article/84853

On 30 October the Gardai refused to search a Gulfstream IV jet known to have been used several times by the CIA for rendition purposes and still owned by a company that is still closely associated with the CIA. Two Irish Government ministers, John Gormely and Trevor Seergeant, were sent a mobile text message by Edward Horgan that this CIA plane was at Shannon, while the plane was still being refuelled.
We need help to monitor these planes at Shannon and to protest at the continuing use of Shannon airport by US military and CIA.

The republican congressman apologised to him for his treatment, but then said he would do again.

But while Mr. Rohrabacher and another senior Republican, Representative Trent Franks of Arizona, expressed sympathy for Mr. Arar's plight, they contended his case was an isolated incident.

"The story of Mr. Arar will be shown to be not a failure of U.S. rendition policy," said Mr. Franks, "but instead an anomalous failure in this particular circumstance, caused by false intelligence information from Canada."

Good work, "anon," well researched, another smoking gun illuminating the actions of our criminal government to which the mainstream media, true to form, will turn the blind eye to?.
