Just in case you had forgotten about this - and for sure the administration would like you to - three more warrants have been issued in the Italian case of the alleged kidnapping and rendition to Egypt of a suspected terrorist by CIA agents.
The Italian government are pissed, since no-one had bothered to inform them about the CIA's plans and it busted a major Italian intelligence operation designed to roll up several terror cells there. Meanwhile in the US there has still been no comment from either CIA or White House on this flagrant trampling on another allied nation's sovereignty nor has there been any call for an investigation to find out whether said trampling had high-level approval.
As a sign of their anger, the Italian government has allowed national newspapers to print the names of those warranted for arrest. They now include 21 CIA agents and a US diplomat. None are believed to still be in Italy and the diplomat is believed transferred to Mexico City.
I guess that's another member of the Coalition of the Naive that Bush can't count on for his next foreign adventure. The UK has already said it isn't interested in more military aggression abroad.
