The ACLU has posted an infographic (see below) called the 'The Torture Architects' which purports to show "... the participation of key high-level officials in the torture program based upon publicly available information..." They needed to be called out since "... those in the upper echelons of the administration who crafted, approved,
and oversaw the program have escaped legal accountability..."
This 'name and shame' effort inexplicably spares the Secretary of State at the time, Colin Powell, who has been shown to have been up to his eyeballs in knowledge of and acquiescence in the use of the "enhanced interrogation tactics" (a.k.a. torture). This blog has opined on this several time before (see here and the associated links).
"The Powell Rehabilitation Project" can chalk up a victory!
