Et tu, Italia?
It's getting harder and harder to find good allies. Despite having a right-wing leader with close ties to President Bush, Italy has issued arrest warrants for a number of CIA agents involved in the "extraordinary rendition" of Osama Mustafa Hassan Nasr, who was allegedly taken by the CIA to Egypt where he reportedly was tortured.
Spain gets cold feet because of a massive bomb in Madrid, Italy gets all up in our grill because we killed a heroic Italian agent who had rescued a kidnapped journalist, and now they're threatening to arrest our agents just because we kidnapped someone off of their streets to deport him to a country with a history of human rights abuse? Man, where's New Europe when you need it?
