In Letter, Radical Cleric Details CIA Abduction, Egyptian Torture

In a WaPo article published today, a radical Muslim cleric details how he was kidnapped, taken out of Italy and held in captivity by the CIA and tortured. Hassan Mustafa Osama Nasr, also known as Abu Omar, wrote an 11-page letter describing his 2003 abduction at the hands of the CIA and Italian secret service agents.

It is a horrible, despicable story. A picture of him was found on a computer that belongs to a CIA official in Milan.

A piece of the article here:

"The Milan public prosecutor's office on Thursday confirmed the authenticity of the letter, the existence of which was first reported by the Italian daily newspaper Corriere della Sera.

The document has been submitted as evidence to defense attorneys representing 25 CIA officers, a U.S. Air Force officer and nine Italian agents who have been charged with organizing the kidnapping of Nasr, an Egyptian national, in February 2003."

Its a must read, my dear reader..but don't read it before you go to bed. It might give you nightmares.
