Blackwater-backed Torture Flights Caught in the UK

Alternet:
The most secret and powerful mercenary firm in America has been bankrolling planes to fly terrorism suspects to secret prisons.

Blackwater USA, the nefarious sounding and behaving contracting company, whose reputation for treachery rivals Halburton's, has been linked to a plane being used to shuttle "terror suspects" to secret prisons in Poland and Romania. These "torture flights" have been roundly condemned by human rights groups.
The Blackwater connection has come to light because of a plane spotted landing in the UK this past weekend. Inside the supposedly civilian plane were four armed US security policemen.
