The allegations have named Romania, Poland, Ukraine, Kosovo, Macedonia and Bulgaria as hosts to secret detention centers. No country has acknowledged playing any active role in the network.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Marty said European states had deliberately turned a blind eye to the “dirty work” that had gone on and were complicit in illegal CIA activities during the war on terrorism.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

01\/22\/06 “The Times” — — Washington — DESPITE force feeding by the American military, several hunger strikers<\/a> at Guantanamo Bay may be close to death, according to lawyers acting for the detainees. <\/p>\n

The condition of two emaciated Yemeni hunger strikers who have been refusing solid food since August is causing particular concern. There are also fears for the life of a hospitalised Saudi prisoner. <\/p>\n

The wife of a British resident and hunger striker, Shaker Aamer, visited the Commons last week to appeal to MPs for help. Aamer?s wife, 31, who lives in London with her four children and has asked for her name to be withheld, said: ?This is the time to do something. My husband is not going to last.?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

White House Was Told Hurricane Posed Danger<\/em><\/strong>

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23 – The White House was told in the hours before Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans that the city would probably soon be inundated with floodwater, forcing the long-term relocation of hundreds of thousands of people, documents to be released Tuesday by Senate investigators show.<\/p>\n

A Homeland Security Department report submitted to the White House at 1:47 a.m. on Aug. 29, hours before the storm hit, said, “Any storm rated Category 4 or greater will likely lead to severe flooding and\/or levee breaching.”<\/p>\n

The internal department documents, which were forwarded to the White House, contradict statements by President Bush and the homeland security secretary, Michael Chertoff, that no one expected the storm protection system in New Orleans to be breached.<\/p>\n

“I don’t think anyone anticipated the breach of the levees,” Mr. Bush said in a television interview on Sept. 1. “Now we’re having to deal with it, and will.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
