The CIA built one of its secret European prisons inside an exclusive riding academy outside Vilnius, Lithuania, a current Lithuanian government official and a former U.S. intelligence official told ABC News this week.

Where affluent Lithuanians once rode show horses and sipped coffee at a café, the CIA installed a concrete structure where it could use harsh tactics to interrogate up to eight suspected al-Qaeda terrorists at a time.

  • This is the reason that when im older I will not be living in the U.S.....

  • Fuck america. I h8 the country that tortures people and is inhumane towards others. This just proves the us is just as bad as russia when stalen was in power, iraq, isreal, iran, and all the other evil countries that torture, start wars just because they can. Those countries are evile! You now know that the u.s. is worse than it seems.

  • COOL!

  • as if this is all we've been up to. tip of the iceberg. among other infamy, bush and cheney are known for their torture programs. nice, way to go morons. meanwhile gitmo still operates. what change?

  • "americans if they can find them"

  • whats the world come to we are not medevil genagration

  • Did you mean: Lithuanian ?

  • True, but I'm not gonna believe in something that isn't supported by evidence, til there's evidence supporting torture in Estonia, there isn't any.

    Baltic nations are free, and I'm not gonna say " fuck both russia and usa " , one is our ally, and the other is our neighbor, and hopefully we'll improve our relations with our neighbor to the east.

  • Youll never know... i mean we didnt have any US bases here aswell if "not so secret" CIA prison doesnt count :/ fuck both russia and usa, freedom for baltic!

  • :D. I hope not, we don't have any US bases here in Estonia, and we received less equipment from US after we regained independence. So it's likely we don't torture.
