Title: Injustice of Maher Arar As Lecture To Gonzales by Leahy
Added: Jan 20, 2007
Author: sierraMamaProd
Duration: 6:50
Description:
In a Dec., 2008 editorial the NY Times states: A "notorious case is being heard on Tuesday by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, in Manhattan. It involves Maher Arar, a Syrian-born Canadian with no ties to terrorism who became a victim of the Bush teams lawless policy of 'extraordinary rendition' — the outsourcing of interrogations to foreign governments known to torture prisoners."http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/08/opinion/08mon1.htmlFrom 2007, this clip is the full sequence on the issue with Gonzales where Sen. Leahy gives him a well deserved lecture. A breath of fresh air. With a slight surprise I added at the very end.

Jan 23, 2007 - Finally, someone posts the FULL exchange between Leahy and Gonzales on the Maher Arar portion of the hearing. The clip others are showing (from CNN) is edited down and missing important bits.Thank you. 5 stars.
