They are EU members and thus subject to EU war crimes and torture regulations which are extremely strict. The prosecutors there are obligated to prosecute these charges. Denying knowledge or "just following orders" is not going to be enough -- it wasn't good enough for the Nazis either and now the laws are far more stringent.

This thing has legs and many CIA operatives will be indicted and tried in absentia -- because we never hand over our terrorists to anyone just like Pakistan.
