ARRRGGGHH

According to the New York Times, a Canadian man arrested in 2002 for alleged terrorist links, deported to Syria, tortured, and released 10 months later has finally been cleared by a Canadian panel. I'm directing you to the Times because CNN.com strangely has no mention of this story. Curiouser and curiouser. Even the Houston Chronicle ran the story, albeit under the title "Judge: Man was tortured after US got faulty info", which implies that everything we did after getting this info was above board.

Wow. We deported a Canadian citizen to Syria for torture. Torture. An innocent Canadian citizen, no less.
