The Rendition and Torture Program: After 9/11, the CIA operated a global network of secret prisons ("black sites") where terrorism suspects were detained, interrogated, and often tortured using techniques like waterboarding. Many were rendered—forcibly transferred—to countries known for torture. The program was concealed from the public, Congress, and international bodies. A 2014 U.S. Senate report confirmed extensive abuse and ineffectiveness. The cover-up relied on classification, diplomatic secrecy, and legal loopholes. It sparked global condemnation and debates on human rights, illustrating how national security concerns can justify and hide systemic human rights violations.
