General Ricardo Sanchez appears guilty of perjury
Posted on March 30th, 2005 by Brad Spangler
Insomnia at Live Journal has turned up what appears to be an indisputable case for perjury by US General Ricardo Sanchez.
As reported by Der Spiegel:
General Ricardo Sanchez, commander of US forces in Iraq during the Abu Ghraib torture scandal, authorized interrogation techniques that included putting prisoners in stressful physical positions and changing sleep patterns, according to a internal US memo made public by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) on Tuesday.
As insomnia points out, though, the memo directly contradicts Sanchez’s own Congressional testimony:
Share ThisI never approved any of those measures to be used within CJTF-7 at any time in the last year.
