Boeing’s Role in the CIA’s Torture Flights

The CIA’s extraordinary rendition is an extrajudicial program in which suspects are kidnapped and transferred to secret locations.  Quite often, the suspects are taken to prisons in countries where they are subjected to torture and inhumane treatment.  In order for this program to take place, the CIA depends on corporations to provide services for the flights.  One of the major corporations that the CIA relies on is Jeppesen Dataplan, a subsidiary of the Boeing Company.
