5. Never (my first reaction)

Maybe many years from now when it's too late to really hold them accountable, someone will decide that it's now safe to do it...as a token.

I would be surprised if it happens at all.

I can't see America having the character to do it. No real integrity there.

A lot of other countries allowed secret prisons or rendition flights...so they're guilty as well.

Still....I'll keep hoping...and will keep demanding it.

I'm not forgetting and I'm not allowing those around me to forget either.

6. It's sad that the U.S. media doesn't cover this anymore.

We used to have a free press in the United States.

7. It's an AP world feed article-I have used the Guardian for many years due to propaganda in NYT, WaPo

not to mention the entire captive MSM of the BFEE.
