\u2026In 2002, Arar, a software engineer and citizen of Canada, was kidnapped and flown by the CIA to Syria, where for 10 months he was held in an underground cell seven feet high, three feet wide, and six feet deep (\u201clike a grave,\u201d he said). The persistent tortures he underwent finally forced him to make a false confession of connections to Al Qaeda.<\/p>\n
On his release, Syrian officials admitted there was a total lack of evidence against him. Then, after a two-year inquiry and its 1,200-page report by a Canadian commission\u2013in which the United States refused to participate\u2013Dennis O\u2019Connor, the chief justice of the Ontario Court of Appeal, said, \u201cI\u2019m able to say categorically that there is no evidence to indicate that Mr. Arar has committed any offense or that his activities constitute a threat to the security of Canada.\u201d \u2026<\/p>\n
On December 7, 2006, the commissioner of the RCMP, Giuliano Zaccardelli, resigned because he had mishandled the case, saying he had \u201cmade a mistake\u201d in not being aware of the false information the RCMP had given the CIA.<\/p>\n
In this country, you will not be surprised to learn, no one\u2013at the CIA, the Justice Department, or in Dick Cheney\u2019s office of \u201cdark arts\u201d\u2013has resigned or admitted any error at all.<\/p>\n
Instead, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales was asked at a press conference whether the Justice Department might at least offer Arar\u2013who can\u2019t find a job and still suffers from the effects of his stay in the grave-like Syrian cell\u2013an apology. Astonishingly, since Arar\u2019s ordeal has been reported in detail in mainstream American newspapers as well as in the foreign press, Gonzales actually said: \u201cWe were not responsible for Mr. Arar\u2019s removal to Syria. I\u2019m not aware that he was tortured, and I haven\u2019t read the [Canadian] commission report. He was initially detained because his name appeared on terrorist lists, and he was deported according to our immigration laws.\u201d<\/p>\n
The attorney general did not mention that his Justice Department approved the removal of Arar or the special accommodations for Arar in a CIA plane, bound not for Canada, where he is a citizen, but for Syria\u2019s torture chambers. And Gonzales has yet to answer the insistent questions on that brutal rerouting from senators Leahy and Arlen Specter.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
