An Italian judge has ordered 26 US citizens - most of them CIA agents - to stand trial over the kidnap of an Egyptian cleric in Milan in 2003.
Osama Mustafa Hassan was allegedly seized by the CIA and flown to Egypt, where he says he was tortured.

Five Italians were also indicted by the judge, including Italy's ex-military intelligence chief, Nicolo Pollari.

The case would be the first criminal trial over the secret US practice known as "extraordinary rendition".

This is actually huge. Bush's created a wave of anti-American sentiment that will undoubtedly cripple our ability to fight the WOT. He's basically crippled any powers and sense of solidarity we had with Europe.
