Fax from William J Haynes, II to William Taft, Scott Muller, John Bellinger and John Yoo re: Response to Human Rights Watch
Apr. 7, 2003 | ACLU-RDI 2405
This fax contains a response letter to The Human Rights watch Ex. Dir. Kenneth Roth addressing his points made in an earlier letter to Sec. Def. Rumsfeld about releasing Taliban armed forces from Guantanamo since the war in Afghanistan is over. The letter justifies the detention of "terrorists of global reach" and states that if detainees are transferred, the US obtains "appropriate assurances" that they will not be tortured.
