I've been giving this matter serious consideration. (Something that's not good when you're a) sick as a motherfuck, and b) a dumbass)

According to the news, the case of Khaled al-Masri, 41, a German citizen allegedly handed over to the US by Macedonian agents in 2004, helped spark the controversy.

Kuwaiti-born Mr Masri was seized close to the Macedonian border as he headed towards Albania following what he has described as a row with his wife in Germany. After being held for three weeks in the Macedonian capital, Skopje, Mr Masri says he was beaten, handcuffed, blindfolded, drugged, and flown to a CIA prison in Afghanistan.

Mr Masri alleges he was held in Afghanistan for five months, often in solitary confinement, while US agents interrogated him.

Eventually the CIA concluded they had simply made a mistake, and Mr Masri was returned to the Balkans, dumped close to where he was found, and eventually made his way back to Germany.





I'm sorry, but Mrs. WI wouldn't buy that story.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
