On April 16, 2009, the Department of Justice released four secret memos used by the Bush administration to justify torture:
• A 18-page memo, dated August 1, 2002, from Jay Bybee, Assistant Attorney General, OLC, to John A. Rizzo, General Counsel CIA. [PDF]
• A 46-page memo, dated May 10, 2005, from Steven Bradbury, Acting Assistant Attorney General, OLC, to John A. Rizzo, General Counsel CIA. [PDF]
• A 20-page memo, dated May 10, 2005, from Steven Bradbury, Acting Assistant Attorney General, OLC, to John A. Rizzo, General Counsel CIA. [PDF]
• A 40-page memo, dated May 30, 2005, from Steven Bradbury, Acting Assistant Attorney General, OLC, to John A. Rizzo, General Counsel CIA. [PDF]
The technicalities in which they got away with this is amazing. Check it out. PS—Did you know they were also placing terrorists into confined spaces with bugs?
They have an exhibition of this at the museum of contemporary art here in chicago.
No Comment.
