On Sunday, the Los Angeles Times reported that while Barack Obama has announced significant changes to elements in the Bush terror war — shutting Guatanamo and C.I.A. black sites, ending the use of torture in interrogations — he has “left intact an equally controversial counter-terrorism tool.” “Under executive orders issued by Obama recently,” wrote reporter Greg Miller, “the C.I.A. still has authority to carry out what are known as renditions, secret abductions and transfers of prisoners to countries that cooperate with the United States.”
