What Torture Is and Isn’t: A Hard-Liner’s Argument

Review of John Yoo's War by other means

...[Yoo] has written a book that reads like a combination of White House talking points and a partisan brief on presidential prerogatives -- a book that is strewn with preposterous assertions, contorted reasoning and illogical conclusions. He writes that “because of our aggressive policies post 9/11, al Qaeda is no longer the threat it was.” He suggests that might makes right: “At this moment in world history the United States’ conduct should bear the most weight in defining the customs of war. Our defense budget is greater than the defense spending of the next fifteen nations combined.”
