“Several years ago the George W. Bush regime and the Assad regime entering into a rendition-torture partnership by which the CIA shipped a Canadian citizen named Mahar Arar to Syria to have him tortured. The CIA was convinced that Arar was a terrorist but was reluctant to torture a confession out of him. So the CIA turned to its deep-state counterparts in Syria to get the confession. After a year of brutal torture, it was finally determined that Arar was an innocent man. The Syrians released him and he’s now back living in Canada. So, why the urge to initiate a regime-change operation against the U.S. government’s former partner in the war on terrorism?”
