I See McManus Hasn't Mentioned THIS

From the Irish Examiner:

"US INVESTIGATORS, including CIA agents, will be allowed interrogate Irish citizens on Irish soil in total secrecy, under an agreement signed between Ireland and the US last week.

Suspects will also have to give testimony and allow property to be searched and seized even if what the suspect is accused of is not a crime in Ireland.

Under 'instruments of agreement' signed last week by Justice Minister Michael McDowell, Ireland and the US pledged mutual co-operation in the investigation of criminal activity. It is primarily designed to assist America's so-called 'war on terror' in the wake of the September 11 atrocities."

Nice to see the Irish government still regarding the nation's sovereignty and neutrality as important issues, then - not!

McDowell is anybody's for money - allegedly.
