For those who don't know, the practice of renditions began
under the Clinton Administration. Never trust a saxophone
player. -EY
CIA renditions began under Clinton: agent
The US Central Intelligence Agency's (CIA) controversial
"rendition" program was launched under US president Bill
Clinton, a former US counter-terrorism agent has told a
German newspaper.
Michael Scheuer, a 22-year veteran of the CIA who resigned
from the agency in 2004, has told Die Zeit that the US
administration had been looking in the mid-1990s for a way
to combat the terrorist threat and circumvent the cumbersome
US legal system.
