    *Memo Offered Justification for Use of Torture*
/Dana Priest and R. Jeffrey Smith, Washington Post Staff Writers/
In August 2002, the Justice Department advised the White House that

/Giuliana Sgrena, il manifesto/
Gli Stati uniti presentano all'Onu una nuova bozza di risoluzione

da parte del nuovo governo: si parla di «stretto coordinamento» con
l'esercito di occupazione angloamericano. Bush vuole che sia approvata
oggi. Russia, Germania, Francia e Cina lavorano alle correzioni, poi si

legale al Dipartimento alla difesa, datato marzo 2003, elenca le
tecniche di interrogatorio «più energiche» da usare a Guantanamo: sono
quelle poi usate in Iraq. Lo studio offre le giustificazioni legali:
nella guerra al terrorismo il presidente non è tenuto a rispettare le
leggi che vietano la tortura, americane o internazionali. E nessuno, che
agisca sotto sua istruzione, potrà essere processato per questo...

(ICRC) unanswered as the humanitarian organization was buffeted by
demands to drop its silence over what it hears or sees about prisoners
as a price for gaining access to jails in trouble spots around the world

the Red Cross said they believed Christophe Girod was unhappy with his
own organization and with the U.S. Government and that he felt they (the
Red Cross) should have gone public with their report...   continua /
