As I recall, extraordinary rendition occurred precisely because the interrogation techniques they wanted to use were illegal in the US but legal in the other country, which was by the way a willing participant. It may have involved kidnapping or it may not depending on the case, but certainly denotes an important distinction as compared to simply violating some foreign country's laws to bring someone to (your idea of) justice. The zinger simply doesn't fit well here.
- bawolff 5y ago> extraordinary rendition occurred precisely because...were illegal in the US > an important distinction as compared to simply violating some foreign country's laws to bring someone to (your idea of) justice Is the important distinction you want to make that its only wrong if your violated a different country's laws and not your own (personally i'd view that as worse)? Otherwise i struggle to see what the distinction you're trying to point out here is.
