The evidence
In Torture Team, Philippe Sands analyses key evidence against senior members of George W. Bush's administration. Sands exposes the willingness of these central policymakers to question - and ultimately to flout - established principles of international law.
Several relevant materials are already available online, including:
- The interrogation log of Mohammed Al Qahtani (hosted by Time magazine).
- The memo signed by Donald Rumsfeld, then U.S. Secretary of Defense, in which he queried a four hour limit on the amount of time detainees could be made to stand (hosted by the U.S. Department of Defense).
- The recording of John Yoo's debate with Philippe Sands at the World Affairs Council on 31 October 2005 (hosted by the World Affairs Council).
