CIA to stand trial in Italy

An Italian court has ordered 26 US intelligence agents to stand trial over the alleged abduction of an Egyptian imam. At last we have a country that has the guts to stand against the underhand methods of the CIA. I hope more follow suit.

All I can see here is the Italian agents being put "against the wall". The American agents may be tried in their absence, but I doubt they would attend or the US would co-operate.

You are probably right.

Which would just demonstrate to the world exactly what the US thinks of international law and cooperation.
