Пытка okayed кустиком к адвоката outwit
Суббота 30-ое январь 2009
Оно приходит как никакой сярприз что администрация кустика имела меньшюю влюбленность для законоведов. Long before «Attorneygate» скандал превратился вокруг включения 9 юристов в его второй термин, бывшия президент George W. Bush США. Кустик потратил хорошее количество времени bashing пробные законоведы когда он имел возможность. И оно было справедливо недавн показано тот appointee Брэдли Schlozman кустика, который наблюдал права граждан и законоведов прав участия в голосовании от 2003 до 2006, мысль его обязанности был немного больше чем пук «спор прессформы,» «commies» и «шальные libs.» Но теперь, в передовице четверга опубликованной Уолл-Стрит джорнэл, Джон Yoo, бывшее attorney general депутата Ассистента для офиса законных консультантов, объясненного что программы пыткой администрации кустика, для которых он co-authored законные объяснения, первоначально были конструированы к юристам обороны outwit хитроумным. «Первая вещь любой, котор законовед сделает должна сказать, что его клиенты закрыли вверх,» пишет Yoo. «[Sheikh Mohammeds Khalid] или Abu Zubaydahs будущего ответит к никакие учтные спрашивать или trickery - точно почему войлок администрации кустика вынужденный для того чтобы использовать принудительные меры во-первых.» Yoo упускает упомянуть, однако, что прежде чем верховный суд шагнул внутри, подсудимые террора использовали воинских законоведов. Ни делает он упоминает то что генералитеты защитника судьи (JAGs) для армии, Военно-воздушных сил и морских пехотинцов более поздно «сказал они выразило их заботы по мере того как политика была hashed вне на пентагоне в марте и апреле 2003.» «Хотя расклассифицированы их письма к консультантам военного ведомства вообще, источники знакомые с ими сказали потревоженным законоведам которые обширно определили, грубые тактик расспрашивания not only contravene многолетнее военная доктрина - покидающ too much комнаты для толкования запросчиками - но также причинили бы общественное надругательство если тактик стали известный, то» белизна Josh написали для Вашингтон Пост в 2005. Датчик. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), который предводительствовало слух подкомитета 2005 armed services, сказало верхних воинских законоведов после этого, «если они послушали к вам from the outset, то, мы не имело бы множество проблем, котор мы общались с.» Очевидно, администрация кустика никогда не слушала к им. In his time with the Department of Justice, John Yoo co-authored the Patriot Act and helped craft legal justifications for the Bush administration’s torture programs and the NSA’s full-spectrum spying apparatus. “Relying on the civilian justice system not only robs us of the most effective intelligence tool to avert future attacks, it provides an opportunity for our enemies to obtain intelligence on us,” continued Yoo. “If terrorists are now to be treated as ordinary criminals, their defense lawyers will insist that the government produce in open court all U.S. intelligence on their client along with the methods used by the CIA and NSA to get it. A defendant’s constitutional right to demand the government’s files often forces prosecutors to offer plea bargains to spies rather than risk disclosure of intelligence secrets.” In the piece, titled Obama Made a Rash Decision on Gitmo, Yoo also directly states that President Bush ordered waterboarding “three times” after 9/11. “Mr. Obama is returning America to the failed law enforcement approach to fighting terrorism that prevailed before Sept. 11, 2001,” he opined. Yoo argues Obama’s order banning torture “amounts to requiring — on penalty of prosecution — that CIA interrogators be polite,” and even parrots a Rove talking point: the claim that Obama’s ban of torture somehow “prohibits” good-cop, bad-cop interrogation routines with prisoners. “The Army Field Manual, for example, prohibits you from using good cop-bad cop in interrogating,” Rove said on Fox News’ Hannity on Monday. “The CIA must now conduct interrogations according to the rules of the Army Field Manual, which prohibits coercive techniques, threats and promises, and the good-cop bad-cop routines used in police stations throughout America,” writes Yoo Thursday. Of course, it doesn’t. “In fact, the Army Field Manual explicitly permits good cop-bad cop interrogations under the name of ‘Mutt and Jeff’ interrogations, which involve two interrogators ‘display[ing] opposing personalities and attitudes toward the source,’” reported Media Matters, on the instance of Rove introducing the manufactured “fact.” “The Field Manual says the ‘goal of this technique is to make the source identify with one of the interrogators and thereby establish[ing] rapport and cooperation.’” After stating unequivocally that the new interrogation rules will completely cut off any further intelligence from captured al-Qaeda members, he goes so far as to imply that President Obama is “na?ve.” “It is na?ve to say, as Mr. Obama did in his inaugural speech, that we can ‘reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals,’” opines Yoo. “That high-flying rhetoric means that we must give al-Qaeda — a hardened enemy committed to our destruction — the same rights as garden-variety criminals at the cost of losing critical intelligence about real, future threats.” His opinion seems to be that suspected terrorists should be given no rights, and the government should not be burdened with needing to provide legitimate evidence against the accused. “Zacarias Moussaoui, the only member of the 9/11 cell arrested before the attack, turned his trial into a circus by making such demands,” his screed against the American justice system concludes. “He was convicted after four years of pretrial wrangling only because he chose to plead guilty. Expect more of this, but with far more valuable intelligence at stake.” This, coming from the man who once refused to say whether, under his definition of executive power, the president could order a man buried alive. Speaking with a reporter, Yoo also agreed with an analysis of executive power which posited the hypothetical situation in which Bush might order a boy’s testicles “crushed” in order to affect a response from his parents. On the legality of such an order, Yoo said, “I think it depends on why the president thinks he needs to do that.” “The real reason John Yoo wrote this foolish, inaccurate piece is in the hopes of gathering around him some support for his illegal actions,” writes RAW STORY investigative news editor Larisa Alexandrovna on her blog, at-Largely. “You may wish to read his latest epic verbiage festival, but I would urge you not to waste your time,” she writes. “The man is a liar, a coward, and now defends his illegal actions by using lies and discredited propaganda to justify the unjustifiable.” Ron Brynaert contributed to this report.
