Proof found ? U.S. is transferring detainees for torture

Federal Aviation Administration logs proof at least one individual was “apprehend” and “deported” to Syria where he was tortured for 10 months.

This made worse by the circumstances in which he was detained. He was on a layover stop in the United States on his way back to Canada from Tunisia, where he had been on vacation.

Such practices are not only against international law, they are also against standing U.S. policy.
