Following fresh speculation that the CIA is still running secret prisons, author and journalist Webster Tarpley shares some details on “rendition” activity in Ireland, Romania, Germany, Egypt and now the UK.

A US jet, thought to be involved in previous rendition flights, was spotted touching down in Birmingham. It was allegedly met by two British Special Forces helicopters.

The incident was reported by the Guardian newspaper.

Tarpley says he wasn’t surprised by the news, having drawn his conclusions from US President Barack Obama’s promises.
