Comes now a military (meaning a U.S. military legal officer, not some outsider) defense lawyer saying he was shown an SOP manual for interrogators provided by the Pentagon that urged them to destroy handwritten notes of questioning to avoid the potential disclosure of harsh interrogation techniques. It just keeps on coming. I don’t think I need say more about closing Guantanamo or the need to investigate and prosecute U.S. officials. McCain would likely close Gitmo, but would he mount as vigorous an investigation as Obama? Something to remember for November.
