From Bradley Manning to Gitmo, Prisons, and juvenile hall, torture has become normalized and rarely prosecuted. How did this HAPPEN?
The Bush Legal Office legally justified torture through a memo authored by John Yoo. Yoo is visiting Orange County with his new book Taming Globalization: International Law, the US Constitution, and the New World Order.
In 2009, Spanish Judge Baltasar Garz?n Real launched an investigation of Yoo and five others (known as The Bush Six) for war crimes.
As a result of Yoo's memo (and Jay Bybee's and Bush's authorizations), torture became part of our legal and moral legacy which continues to this day.
Please join us for a peaceful protest on public sidewalk.
Who knows if there might be a mic check for Mr. Yoo?
