WARSAW, Poland - Poland's prime minister said Saturday he has ordered an investigation into whether the CIA ran secret prisons for terror suspects in the country — an allegation the government repeatedly has denied.

Kazimierz Marcinkiewicz said a "detailed" probe would be conducted to "check if there is any proof that such an event took place in our country. It is necessary to finally close the issue because it could be dangerous to Poland."

Marcinkiewicz's spokesman, Konrad Ciesiolkiewicz, said he did not know who would carry out the investigation.

More than a half-dozen investigations are under way into whether European countries may have hosted secret U.S.-run prisons in which al-Qaida suspects were allegedly tortured, and whether European airports and airspace were used for alleged CIA flights transporting prisoners to countries where torture is practiced.

2. "Coalition of the willing" coming back to bite Poland in the ass.

Nothing like running torture chambers in the country where Auschwitz is.

3. a 65% catholic country should have no problems with inquisition.

should it? After all, their religion's history is filled with centuries of that kind of crap.

I am surprised that they are trying to look ito it. Maybe they have ethics, morals and love of humanity far greater than the Bushtribe administration.
