German Court Seeks Arrest of 13 C.I.A. Agents - New York Times

German Court Seeks Arrest of 13 C.I.A. Agents - New York Times: "FRANKFURT, Jan. 31 — In the most serious legal challenge yet to the Central Intelligence Agency’s secret transfers of terrorism suspects, a German court has issued an arrest warrant for 13 people in connection with the mistaken kidnapping and jailing of a German citizen of Lebanese descent."

This is really big news! It will be interesting to see how this affects U.S. relations with Europe (and Germany and Italy in particular it seems...) My guess is that we'll just do more of our questionable activities out of Central and Eastern Europe...

On a totally separate note, blogger seems to have been consumed by google -- which is good I'm hoping... We'll see...
