This article is kind of old, from 2007, but this article goes into exactly what this week was about in class- the justificaiton of torture. It mentions the memos drawn up in '02 and '03 by the Department of Justice and the Pentagon, as well as the example of a ticking bomb. It also goes into some of the different kinds of torture as well as what some states think about it. I thought that this was a very informative and interesting article.
