- Authors
Fraser, Malcolm
- Abstract
The article discusses two key series of events and examines the broader implications of the events. One of the events concerns the 2004 report which reviews the detention operations of the U.S. Department of Defense. The second series of event deals with those described and exposed in Philippe Sands's book and implicates the senior legal advisers and Attorney General and the Department of Justice of U.S. President George W. Bush. Furthermore, it started when U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld hand-picked Major General Michael Dunlavey for Guantánamo Bay in Cuba.
