College London, reveals that:<BR><BR>· Senior Bush administration figures pushed 
through previously outlawed measures with the aid of inexperienced military 
officials at Guantánamo.<BR><BR>· Myers believes he was a victim of "intrigue" 
by top lawyers at the department of justice, the office of vice-president Dick 
Cheney, and at Donald Rumsfeld's defence department.<BR><BR>· The Guantánamo 
lawyers charged with devising interrogation techniques were inspired by the 
exploits of Jack Bauer in the American TV series 24.<BR><BR>· Myers wrongly 
believed interrogation techniques had been taken from the army's field 
manual.<BR><BR>The lawyers, all political appointees, who pushed through the 
interrogation techniques were Alberto Gonzales, David Addington and William 
Haynes. Also involved were Doug Feith, Rumsfeld's under-secretary for policy, 
and Jay Bybee and John Yoo, two assistant attorney generals.<BR></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F565A154-0E87-433F-8793-845999DA54F8/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
