I meant cases of rendition used by states as a tool, where the abductees where put on trial. El-Masri isn't a terrorist either, so the civilized countries have come a long way from a person like Adolf Eichmann.

Rendition is used by terrorists and in state terrorism. There are many commonalities between the two: arms trade, money laundering and involvement with drugs. See definition of a terrorist state by U.S. Ambassador Alexander Vershbow to South Korea.
