If you want to see the bare essence of the Bush administration, behold its policy of 'rendition.' The innocuous-sounding word signifies a policy under which American officials send terrorist suspects -- detainees never convicted of crimes -- to countries where they will be tortured, keeping the U.S. government's hands clean of the monstrous treatment. Can anyone with a sense of justice or humane bone in his body defend such a shameful policy?
