Will Poland’s Former Leaders Face War Crimes Charges for Hosting Secret CIA Prison?

Andy Worthington

August 5, 2010

The mainstream media in the United States (and in the UK) has ignored the release last week of documents in Poland confirming that planes chartered by the CIA flew to the site of a secret CIA prison in north eastern Poland in 2002 and 2003. The documents, released by the Polish Border Guard Office, confirm previously released flight information disclosed by the Polish Air Navigation Service Agency, and also confirm that three "high-value detainees" — Abu Zubaydah, Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri and Ramzi bin al-Shibh — were flown from Thailand to Poland on December 5, 2002, as I reported exclusively here.

The documents also provide the date for a flight into Poland — March 7, 2003 — that corresponds with the date cited for the arrival of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in an article in Der Spiegel last year, and also reveal the number of prisoners on seven separate flights between December 2002 and September 2003. In addition, they provide some tantalizing information about the exchange of prisoners between the Polish prison and another secret CIA facility in Romania.

You right...But any international story I see about Poland, I try to post it up. Also, I guess it hard to say no to CIA...They make offers you can't refuse.
