Yoo's "Mock Burial Technique #12" - Bury Them Alive...Just "Need More Time" To Approve

[kpete]

Technique 12 remains redacted in this report. But as I pointed out last week, PDF page 178 of the First Draft includes an unredacted reference to the technique.

Goldsmith viewed the Yoo Memo itself as a “blank check” that could be used to justify additional EITs without further DOJ review. Although Yoo told us that he had concluded that the mock burial technique would violate the torture’ statute, he nevertheless told the client, according to Fredman and Rizzo, that he would “need more time” if they wanted it approved.

The twelfth technique–which Mitchell and Jessen wanted approved but which Yoo excluded because of the rush to approve waterboarding–is mock burial.

...should hang for these things.

I see little difference between them and the Saddam Hussein Family.
