Torture and truth

America, Abu Ghraib, and the War on Terror

- Memos and letters from the highest echelons of the US government – White House lawyer Alberto Gonzales, Secretary of State Colin Powell, Attorney General John Ashcroft, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, and the President himself – argueing whether the Geneva Conventions apply to the conflict with Al Qaeda and beyond
