Joe Biden

The hearing will come to order. Good morning gentlemen, thank you for being here. I'm glad you all could be here today to discuss one of the -- I think -- defining challenges of this decade, is how to effectively combat international terrorism while both maintaining our national values and our commitment to the rule of law, and respecting individual rights and civil liberties. Some have suggested that we need make a Faustian bargain that gives up one in order to accomplish the other. That's what I'd kind of like to discuss with you all today.

Joe Biden

We meet today against the backdrop of the most recent national intelligence estimate, which concluded that the terrorist threat to the United States of America from al-Qaeda is back in full force. One conclusion, I believe, we can draw from this is that the administration's policies dealing with terrorism, thus far, are not working.

Today's hearing focuses on two of the less often discussed, but no less controversial counterterrorism policies we've employed since September the 11: Extraordinary rendition and extraterritorial detention.

Rendition is the practice of detaining a terrorist operative in a foreign country and transferring him or her to the United States or to another foreign country. It has proved to be an effective way to take terrorists off the street and collect, on occasion, some valuable information.

But the U.S. Government's use of rendition has been extremely controversial. Foreign governments have criticized the practice because it operates outside the rule of law and has allegedly been used to transfer suspects to countries that torture or mistreat them or to seek extraterritorial prisons, in countries where we have listed the countries as abusing the human rights of their fellow citizens.

As a result, the current rendition program has taken a toll on the relationships with some of our closest foreign partners. Consider the following: Italy has indicted 26 Americans for their alleged role in a rendition. Germany has issued arrest warrants for an additional 13 United States intelligence officers. The Canadian Government Commission has censured the United States for rendering a Canadian-Syrian dual-citizen to Syria, where he was allegedly tortured. The Counsel of Europe and the European Union have each issued reports critical of the United States Government's rendition program and the European countries' involvement in, or complicity with, that program.

Sweden and Switzerland have each initiated investigations of us, as well. Just yesterday, the United Kingdom issued a report on the United States rendition program, concluding that it would have, "serious implications," for future intelligence relationships between the United States and the United Kingdom, one of our most important partners.

Joe Biden

Rendition as currently practiced, in my view, is undermining our moral credibility and standing abroad and, more importantly, I guess in the minds of the real politik crowd of which I occasionally consider myself one, weakening, weakening the coalition with foreign governments, the very governments that we need if we're going to be able to combat international terrorism. We also put our intelligence officers at risk by not providing them with clear guidelines to govern their conduct.

As one of the witnesses today recently wrote, "Successful counterterrorism depends in part on convincing the world that there is no moral equivalency between the terrorist and the government they oppose. When the United States muddies those waters, this distinction begins to blur."

Joe Biden

More ominous, the controversial aspects of the U.S. Government use of renditions have been used by propagandists and recruiters to fuel and sustain international terrorist organizations with a constant stream of new recruits. That's not my judgment, that's the judgment of many in the intelligence community.

Allegations of U.S. lawlessness and mistreatment make their job easier -- that is the recruiters -- adding a refrain to the recruitment pitch, and increasing the receptivity of their target audience. Our counterterrorism authorities have not only -- our counterterrorism authorities should not only thwart attacks, take dangerous terrorists off the street, and bring them to justice -- these authorities should also strengthen international coalitions, win the hearts and minds of Muslim populations that are -- would otherwise be prepared to cooperate with us and help diminish, if not deprive, recruitment, the narrative that they now have.

In our long-term effort to stem the tide of international terrorism, our commitments to the rule of law and individual rights and civil liberties are among our most formidable weapons, in my view. They are what unite foreign governments behind us in effective antiterrorism coalitions. They are what unite public opinion in this country in support of our counterterrorism efforts. They are what prevent the recruitment of the next generation of international terrorists, or at least slow it up.

If we continue to pursue a rendition program ungoverned by law, without sufficient safeguards and oversight, we will take individual terrorists off the streets at the expense of foreign coalitions that are significantly more consequential long term and essential to our efforts to combat international terrorism at the expense of facilitating the recruitment of a new generation of terrorists who are just as dangerous -- and what we know from the intelligence report -- far more numerous.

There is not a tradeoff -- this is not a tradeoff I believe we have to make. We can have a robust and agile rendition capacity governed by the rule of law and subject to sufficient safeguards and oversight. In this way, we can take terrorists off the streets, while at the same time strengthening our standing and credibility among foreign governments and the global community and diminishing the recruitment efforts of tomorrow's -- for tomorrow's terrorist.

Joe Biden

Yesterday I introduced a bill, the National Security with Justice Act, which maintains rendition as a robust and agile tool in our fight against international terrorism, but brings that tool within the rule of law, provides additional safeguards against error, prohibits rendering of individual to countries that will torture or mistreat them or to secret extraterritorial prisons.

Joe Biden

My bill also closes a hole intentionally left open by the President's recent Executive order on the treatment of detainees. The President's order is notably silent on some of the more controversial techniques the CIA has allegedly used in the past, such as waterboarding, sleep deprivation, sensory deprivation, and extremes of heat and cold. When we countenance this treatment of detainees, we diminish our ability to argue that some techniques should not be used against our own troops.

I wonder what the response is in this country if we find that those techniques are being used. We can't continue to equivocate and dissemble on this matter. We need to send a clear message that torture, inhumane, and degrading treatment of detainees is unacceptable, is not permitted by U.S. law, period. Therefore, my bill prohibits all officers and agents of the U.S. Government from using techniques of interrogation not authorized by, and listed in, the U.S. Army field manual on intelligence interrogation.

Today we have several distinguished experts who will help us understand how we can maintain these vital tools in our fight against terrorism, without endangering the safety of our troops, jeopardizing the international partnerships so critical in this long-term fight, and alienating modern Muslim populations, and meeting our standard of what we consider, what the average person considers fairness; the rule of law.

I would just comment that in the current fight against terrorism, we have employed some of our most talented minds to leverage America's overwhelming technical capabilities. Yet we realize that many terrorists employ tactics designed to frustrate our technological advantages. Terrorists' orders are now seldom transmitted over the Internet or by mobile phones, both of which are prone to electronic eavesdropping. Instead, messages are couriered by hand, or passed by word of mouth. And terrorist cells often deliberately keep small and isolated from one another to avoid penetration.

In this environment, our ability to disrupt terrorist organizations depends greatly on the oldest form of espionage, namely human intelligence. Identifying, locating, and obtaining access to individuals with information about terrorist cells is now one of our most vital national security tasks. As a result of these facts on the ground, the U.S. policymakers have been forced to contend with moral, legal, and tactical questions that defy easy answers.

How do we handle terrorists who have been pinpointed outside of countries where the U.S. military and intelligence agencies can operate with the cooperation of the local government? Where should suspected terrorists be detained, and under what regulations? To what length should we go to obtain information from a prisoner that could prove vital to saving the lives of hundreds, or even thousands, of people? And how can we be sure that the information we obtain is truthful and valuable?

We all agree that actionable intelligence items that enable us to destroy terrorist cells or disrupt terrorist activities are essential in our current struggle. But we have not developed a national consensus on how far the U.S. Government can go in seeking such items. We also have not come to grips with the question of whether information obtained through methods that draw international criticism is worth the loss of United States standing.

Richard Lugar

Last summer, the Foreign Relations Committee held a hearing on counterterrorism, in which we discussed the growing ability of terrorist organizations to conduct anti-American propaganda, and to franchise themselves. Decisions about individual cases can not be made in a policy vacuum with no reference to broader antiterrorism strategy. The policy of rendition has proven in the past to be a useful tool in bringing to justice narcotraffickers and other international criminals. In most of those instances, individuals were sent to the United States with the consent of the countries where they were located. Either because the country's judicial system was inadequate and prone to corruption, or because the country in question believed that the U.S. judicial system was better suited to handle the case.

The issue before us is the impact of so-called "extraordinary rendition." When suspected terrorists are rendered to justice, not in the United States, but to other countries, many of whose judicial systems have questionable levels of human rights protection and due process procedures.

I'll start with a simple observation that when I joined Human Rights Watch about 6 years ago, I thought I'd be spending most of my time dealing with situations in places like Sudan and Burma and China. I never thought for a moment that I'd end up as preoccupied as I've been with the policies that you're focused on here.

But here we are and here we must be, because as you said, Mr. Chairman, these policies have done so much to diminish America's standing, it's influence in the world. And because they have hindered, ironically, not helped, our efforts in fighting terrorism. So, I'm really glad that you're doing this and particular that you're focusing on the most difficult and the most complicated aspects of this problem, those involving rendition and CIA detention.

As Senator Lugar mentioned, rendition is nothing new, but there is a difference. In the past when we've seized people overseas, we brought them to justice, we brought them to face criminal trial in the United States or elsewhere. What we're doing now, what we have been doing is essentially hiding people from justice. People have been sent to secret facilities or they've been held for years without any process, not even visits from the International Committee for the Red Cross. Some subjected to interrogation methods that, well, methods that I first learned about when I was reading accounts by Soviet dissidents of what they endured in KGB prisons years ago. Now, some of these men committed terrible acts, inevitably a few turned out to be innocent. Some have since been transferred to Guantanamo Bay, many others were rendered to countries where torture is standard operating procedure and those people remain, essentially, disappeared, vanished.

Now those are the facts. They were meant to be secret. Of course, they were not going to be secret for long, that was inevitable. What I'm particularly interested in is the argument that these policies are making to the rest of the world. Here's the argument I think the administration is making, in a nutshell.

First, that the whole world is a battlefield in an open- ended war against terror. Anyone, the Chief Executive of a country believes to be associated with terrorism is a combatant in that war and can, therefore, be attacked on sight or held without charge. Such people can be seized anywhere, anytime, without judicial authorization and if they're considered especially dangerous, they can be held in secret for as long as a country likes. So long as these people are in the custody of an intelligence agency, governments can also subject them to interrogation procedures that would normally be prohibited in wartime.

Now, I've deliberately stated these propositions in their generic form, not as statements of what the United States can do, but as statements of what any country can do. Because that's, essentially, the implication of the arguments that we're making. And I think it's extremely dangerous. Imagine, for example, if the Government of Iran were to seize a bunch of Americans in Iraq, take them across the border back to Iran, and held them in a secret prison with no judicial process. Would we accept that that was OK, just because, for example, they were being held by the Iranian Intelligence Agency and not the Iranian military?

Imagine if China or Burma accused an American of aiding rebels in their country, as they often do. And on that basis, seized that American off the streets of Wilmington or Indianapolis, bundled that person on a plane, took them back to China or Burma, held them for years in secret. Would the President of the United States say, "Well, you know, no problem, I guess the leaders of China and Burma thought that guy was an enemy combatant and they have a right to do that."

Or just for the sake of argument, imagine if the President of Russia declared that his country was engaged in a global war on terror and that anyone with any connection to any group that supported separatist elements, in a place like Chechnya, was a combatant in that war who could be detained or shot or poisoned, wherever he was found, whether in Moscow or Berlin or, just for the sake of argument, London.

Now clearly, we live in a world where such things are possible; they happen. But do we want to live in a world where they are considered legitimate? That's what's at stake here -- whether we're going to preserve a set of legal and moral rules that this country has struggled to develop over generations, and whether the United States is going to remain the world's preeminent champion of those rules.

Right now we're obviously losing that status. When we go around the world, talk about freedom and democracy, these policies are thrown in our face, whether we're a human rights organization or the U.S. Government. Dictators all around the world take pleasure now in saying to their people, that even America, which preaches all these fine moral ideals to the world, tortures prisoners and locks them away without charge. Even America throws away the legal niceties and behaves ruthlessly when it feels threatened. The Americans use all this human rights talk to beat up their enemies, but you know, they're really just the same as us. I hate the fact that dictators and authoritarian leaders like Vladimir Putin can now say that with some degree of legitimacy to their people.

Now, those are some of the costs. The question is: Do we benefit at all, are there national security benefits to these policies? I agree with Senator Biden that the answer to that is no. It's certainly no if -- you know -- if you agree, for example, with what General Petraeus has been saying to his troops in Iraq. He recently said, "This fight depends on securing the population, which must understand that we, not our enemies, occupy the moral high ground." We're losing the moral high ground because of these policies, in a way that creates far more enemies than they could ever take off the battlefield.

Now, it's also vital to get good intelligence, as you suggested, Senator Lugar. But I don't think these policies are the answer to that challenge. Partly because folks who live in communities where terrorists hide are going to be much less likely to give us information to turn over their neighbors and friends if they think those neighbors and friends are going to be subjected to torture or shipped off to a secret prison. And partly because these practices, you know, they're designed to elicit false confessions from people, they're not really designed to get at the truth.

And I think one of the best examples of this is one of the first known cases of extraordinary rendition, one that we haven't mentioned yet. An al-Qaeda member named Ibn al-Sheikh al-Libi, who was taken in Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban regime, first interrogated by the FBI, which was making progress, reportedly. Then given to the CIA, which rolled out its enhanced interrogation techniques and then shipped to Egypt for, I suppose, further enhancement. What did Libi say to his interrogators? Precisely what they wanted to hear: That Saddam Hussein was training al-Qaeda in the use of chemical weapons. And where did that piece of information end up? It ended up being the closing argument in Secretary of State Powell's famous speech to the U.N. Security Council on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program.

So you can say, I think, with credibility that one of the greatest intelligence failures in American history came about, in part, because somebody trusted the tortured confession of a man who went through the extraordinary rendition program. And that ought to give us pause.

Then there's the whole problem of not being to bring terrorists to justice. Not a single 9/11 planner has been successfully prosecuted in this system. The only person the administration has managed to convict, in the system that they've created, is a minor al-Qaeda guy, if he was at all, an Australian kangaroo trapper by the name of David Hicks, who got a 9-month sentence and is now serving it in Australia.

At the same time our Federal courts, which have been disparaged as not being capable of dealing with terrorism, have quietly prosecuted and put away dozens of international terrorists for sentences up to, and including, life. And you know what? Nobody is saying that those people who our Federal courts have processed were treated unfairly. Nobody is clamoring for their release. Nobody -- terrorists are not using their fate to recruit new terrorists. To use one of President Bush's favorite expressions, "Those people who got justice with due process are no longer a problem for the United States of America." Every single person who's gone through this rendition program remains a problem for the United States of America.

Now legislation you've proposed, Senator Biden, addresses the most complicated aspects of that problem and Human Rights Watch strongly supports the goals of your bill: To protect legitimate intelligence activities while getting the CIA out of this long-term detention business and limiting rendition to cases where a prisoner is sent to face justice with due process. Drafting the language to accomplish those goals is really, really hard. Particularly when we have some lawyers in this administration who believe the constitutional function of Congress is to enact loopholes not laws, and they will scour your legislation for any loophole that they can find. So, I would urge you, as this legislation moves forward, to be extremely careful, look at the language again and again, make sure that it's absolutely airtight.

In my written testimony I suggest a few adjustments that I hope you'll consider making. For example, granting the Red Cross access to every prisoner in U.S. custody. And I ask whether the FISA Court procedure that you outlined in the legislation is the best way of overseeing this process. So, I look forward to working with you, your staff, and other Senators as that process moves forward.

I also want to just strongly commend you for including in the legislation a provision that establishes a single interrogation standard for the entire U.S. Government, one that is humane, one that is effective, one that is lawful. Clearly, the message of the Executive order and some of the statements the administration has made in the last few days suggests that they want to go back to at least some elements of the enhanced interrogation program. I think that would be a tragic, tragic mistake for the reasons that you outlined, Mr. Chairman. And again, I commend you for trying to prevent that.

The very fact we're even having this discussion, I suppose, is kind of sad. You know, how this country treats its enemies ought to be what distinguishes us from our enemies. And the story of how we've actually done so in the last few years doesn't always make me proud, but I think that there's another story out there that's waiting to be written, and that is that, you know, the United States was hit hard on 9/11, we responded mostly in ways that were honorable and smart. We made some mistakes out of fear. Our institutions, the Congress, the court, our military are now correcting those mistakes and bringing us back to a path of which we can be proud. I think that's a really good story that I hope will be told. And I'm very glad that this committee is playing its part in helping to write it.

When I joined the staff of Human Rights Watch 6 years ago, I assumed I would be spending most of my time dealing with outrages committed by governments in countries like Sudan and China and Burma, and urging the United States to be a force for good in such places. I never imagined that I would see my own government engaging in the kinds of activities it has long condemned around the world: Disappearing prisoners in secret facilities for years without any legal process, sending them to be interrogated in countries where torture is standard practice, and subjecting them to interrogation methods that I first learned about while reading accounts by Soviet dissidents of what they endured in KGB prisons.

These policies have undermined standards that defenders of human rights everywhere rely upon to fight for their cause. They have diminished America's moral standing and influence in the world. They have hindered, not aided, the fight against terrorism, handing America's enemies a victory they could never have achieved on their own.

For the last 6 years, a growing number of voices have been pushing back: Members of Congress, the Supreme Court, active and retired members of the U.S. military and intelligence community, not to mention organizations dedicated to promoting civil liberties and human rights. We have made considerable progress in righting the wrongs of the last few years and encouraging a counterterrorism strategy that will be more effective as well as lawful. But much more needs to be done. And I am very glad, Mr. Chairman, to see you taking the lead in addressing some of the most complex and important aspects of the problem, including extraordinary rendition and secret detention.

What I'd like to do is discuss what we know about the CIA's detention, interrogation, and rendition program, as well as its consequences and the importance of fundamentally changing it. I will then offer a few comments on the legislation you have introduced. the program

The administration has acknowledged that around 100 prisoners have been held in the CIA program, in facilities operated by the Agency in undisclosed locations around the world. The International Committee of the Red Cross has repeatedly asked for access to these facilities and been denied. These prisoners were effectively disappeared. In international law, an enforced disappearance is considered to be "the arrest, detention, abduction or any other form of deprivation of liberty committed by agents of the State . . . followed by a refusal to acknowledge the deprivation of liberty or by concealment of the fate or whereabouts of the disappeared person, which place such a person outside the protection of the law." That is precisely what happened to prisoners held by the CIA.

Some of the prisoners were subjected to what the administration has euphemistically termed "enhanced interrogation." These methods reportedly included "waterboarding" -- in which interrogators strap the prisoner to a board with his feet above his head, cover his mouth and nose with cellophane, and pour water over his face to create the sensation of drowning. They also apparently included a technique known as "long-time standing," in which a prisoner is forced to stand motionless for up to 48 straight hours, and extreme sleep deprivation for days on end -- methods that survivors of some of the world's most brutal regimes have said cause as much suffering as the worst physical torture.

Last September, the President announced that the last (at that point) 14 prisoners held in CIA facilities were being transferred to military detention at Guantanamo Bay. But of course many more prisoners had been in CIA custody at some point before that. Human Rights Watch has identified 21 people who were almost certainly held in CIA facilities, and another 18 who may have been held, whose whereabouts remain unknown. Most, presumably, were rendered to other countries, most likely in the Middle East.

The administration says that it does not render people to torture. But the only safeguard it appears to have obtained in these cases was a promise from the receiving state that it would not mistreat the rendered prisoners. Such promises, coming from countries like Egypt and Syria and Uzbekistan where torture is routine, are unverifiable and utterly untrustworthy. I seriously doubt that anyone in the administration actually believed them.

We also know that the CIA detention and rendition program remains in operation today. This spring, four more prisoners were delivered to Guantanamo, some reportedly from secret CIA custody. At least one had actually been arrested months earlier. There is also strong evidence that the Agency may have participated in or condoned the rendition to Somalia and Ethiopia of a number of people who had escaped the conflict in Somalia earlier this year. consequences for global human rights and america's moral authority

Here, in a nutshell, are the arguments the administration has made to the world through these detention policies: First, the whole world is a battlefield in an open-ended war on terror. Anyone the Chief Executive of a country believes to be supporting or associated with terrorism is a combatant in that war, and can therefore be attacked on sight or held without charge. Second, such people can be seized anywhere, at any time, without judicial authorization, and if the leader of a country considers them especially dangerous, he can hold them in secret for as long as he likes. So long as these people are in the custody of an intelligence agency, governments can also subject them to interrogation procedures that would normally be prohibited in wartime, even though such practices have been prosecuted as torture by the United States for over a hundred years.

I have deliberately stated these propositions in their generic form -- not as statements of what the United States can lawfully do, but as statements of what any government can lawfully do. This is how this debate should have been framed from the beginning -- because America's policies inevitably set an example for others. But it was not framed that way. The administration failed to consider, before it embarked on its interrogation and detention policies, how the United States might react if others mimicked those policies and the arguments it was using to justify them.

Imagine if another government -- let's say, for the sake of argument, the Government of Iran -- set up a prison camp on some island to which it claimed its domestic laws did not apply, and that it held there, without charge or trial, several hundred men of multiple nationalities, captured outside of Iran, who it accused, based on classified evidence, of supporting groups it claimed were hostile to Iran.

Imagine if some of these prisoners were Americans -- not soldiers, but say a contractor the Iranians accused of housing or feeding U.S. troops, or a Treasury Department official they accused of financing the Pentagon. Imagine if Iran transferred those Americans to the custody of its intelligence agency, and on that basis claimed that it could hold them in secret without any legal process for as long as it wanted. Imagine if those Americans were ultimately given a makeshift military hearing, in which they tried to say that they had been tortured by their interrogators, but that the Iranian tribunal kept this testimony secret because it didn't want Iran's enemies to learn how it interrogates prisoners.

Imagine if the intelligence service of the United Kingdom suspected a lawful U.S. resident of sending money to the IRA in Northern Ireland, or the secret police in China or Burma accused an American of supporting rebels in their country, and on that basis, kidnapped that American off the streets of Wilmington or Indianapolis, bundled him on a plane, and held him for years in a secret facility, hidden even from the International Committee of the Red Cross. How would the U.S. Government react? Would the President say "sure, no problem, I guess the leader of China or Burma decided that guy was an enemy combatant, so I can't really complain?" If it happened to one of your constituents, Mr. Chairman, would it matter to you if some official in the U.S. intelligence community had given Burma or China permission to whisk that American away?

Or, just for the sake of argument, imagine if the President of Russia declared that his country was engaged in a global war on terror, and that anyone with any connection to any group that supported separatist elements in places like Chechnya was a combatant in that war who could be detained or shot or poisoned wherever he was found, whether in Moscow or Berlin or just for the sake of argument, London.

Clearly, we live in a world in which such things are possible. But do we want to live in a world where they are considered legitimate? That is what is at stake here. Whether we will preserve the legal and moral rules we have struggled to develop over generations to limit what governments -- and here I mean not just the United States but all governments -- can and can't do to people in their power. And whether the United States will have the credibility to be the world's preeminent champion of those rules.

Now, it is important to note that nothing the administration has done can compare in its scale to what happens every day to victims of cruel dictatorship around the world. The United States is not Sudan or Cuba or North Korea. The United States is an open, democratic country with strong institutions -- its Congress, its courts, its professional military leadership -- which are striving to undo these mistakes and uphold the rule of law.

When Saddam Hussein tortures a thousand people in a dark dungeon, when Kim Jong Il throws a hundred thousand people in a prison camp without any judicial process, no one says: "Hey, if those dictators can do that, it's legitimate, and therefore so can we." But when the United States bends the rules to torture or to secretly and unlawfully detain even one person, when the country that is supposed to be the world's leading protector of human rights begins to do -- and to justify -- such things, then all bets are off. The entire framework upon which we depend to protect human rights -- from the Geneva Conventions and treaties against torture -- begins to fall apart.

It is simply an undeniable, objective fact that when President Bush talks about his freedom agenda today, most people around the world do not conjure images of women voting in Afghanistan or of Ukrainians and Georgians marching for democracy or of American aid dollars helping activists in Egypt or Morocco fight for reform. Even America's closest friends now turn their minds to Guantanamo, to renditions, to secret prisons, and to the administration's tortured justifications for torture.

These policies have not only discredited President Bush as a messenger of freedom, they also risk discrediting the message itself. Because the whole idea of promoting democracy and human rights is so associated with the United States, America's fall from grace has emboldened authoritarian governments to challenge the idea as never before. As the United States loses its moral leadership, the vacuum is filled by forces profoundly hostile to the cause of human rights.

A couple of years ago, Human Rights Watch was meeting with the Prime Minister of Egypt, and we raised a case in which hundreds of prisoners rounded up after a terrorist bombing were tortured by Egyptian security forces. The Prime Minister didn't deny the charge. He answered, "We're just doing what the United States does." We've had Guantanamo and the administration's interrogation policies thrown back in our face in meetings with officials from many other countries, including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Pakistan, and Lebanon. U.S. diplomats have told us they face the same problem. A U.S. Ambassador to a major Middle Eastern country, for example, has told us that he can no longer raise the issue of torture in that country as a result.

The master of the tactic is Russia's President, Vladimir Putin, who uses it preemptively to ward off criticism of Russia's slide back to authoritarianism. Just before the recent G-8 summit, a reporter asked Putin about his human rights record, and he immediately shifted the subject: "Let's see what's happening in North America," he said. "Just horrible torture . . . Guantanamo. Detentions without normal court proceedings."

Now, don't get me wrong: Putin doesn't need American renditions and secret prisons as an excuse to persecute his critics in Russia. These policies are not the reason why Egypt or any other country tortures and detains prisoners without charge. Still, America's detention policies are a gift to dictators everywhere. They can use America's poor example to shield themselves from international criticism and pressure, to say, to their own people as well as to the world, "we are just the same as everybody else."

Tom Malinowski

In the days of the cold war, the Communist leaders of Eastern Europe tried to do the same thing. But it didn't work. Dissidents and ordinary people behind the Iron Curtain knew that America wasn't perfect. But they believed that the United States was at least dedicated to the principle that governments were bound by law to respect human rights. It was profoundly important to them to know that the government of the world's other superpower limited its power in accordance with this principle. It gave them hope that a different way of life was possible, and the courage to fight for it.

Leaders like Putin understand how powerful America's example has been in the past, and they use the administration's policies to tear that example to shreds. They use it to tell their people that all this American-inspired talk about human rights is hypocritical rubbish. "Even self-righteous America," they say, "which preaches moral ideals to the world, tortures prisoners, and locks people up without a trial. Even America throws away the legal niceties and behaves ruthlessly when it feels threatened. The Americans use human rights talk to beat up their enemies, but they're really just the same as us. And if you think that things can ever be different here or anywhere else, you're just naive." harm to counterterrorism

These are some of the costs of the administration's detention and interrogation policies. Do these policies have national security benefits that justify such costs? I believe the answer is "No."

I believe that the fight against terror is as much a moral and political struggle as it is a military one. That's not just my view.

Listen to former Marine Corps Commandant Charles Krulak and former CENTCOM Commander Joseph Hoar, who have written: "This war will be won or lost not on the battlefield but in the minds of potential supporters who have not yet thrown in their lot with the enemy." Listen to General David Petraeus, who recently told his troops in Iraq: "This fight depends on securing the population, which must understand that we -- not our enemies -- occupy the moral high ground." Look at the most recent National Intelligence Estimate, which says that the United States needs to "divide [terrorists] from the audiences they seek to persuade" and make "the Muslim mainstream . . . the most powerful weapon in the war on terror." Read the U.S. Army's Counterinsurgency Manual, which says that in a war like this, you can't kill or capture every enemy fighter; the challenge instead is to diminish the enemy's "recuperative power" -- its ability to recruit new fighters -- by diminishing its legitimacy while increasing your own.

When America violates its own principles by secretly detaining, abusing, and rendering prisoners to torture, it cedes the moral high ground and loses the Muslim mainstream. These policies are one of the main sources of the terrorists' recuperative power.

What's more, secret detention, torture, and rendition hurt, rather than help, efforts to collect accurate intelligence about the enemy.

One of the best sources of intelligence on terrorist plots are the communities in which terrorists hide. Public cooperation has been the key to preventing many potentially deadly attacks: For example, it was a tip from a member of the Muslim community in London that allowed British investigators to foil a plot to bomb several transatlantic flights last year. But people who live in those communities are much less likely to come forward with information about their neighbors, acquaintances, and relatives if they think the people they're turning in are liable to be abused, or held for years in a secret prison, or sent to a dungeon in a country where torture is rampant.

Interrogation of prisoners is also an important source of intelligence. But torture is not a reliable method of interrogation. Sure, if you waterboard a prisoner or strip him naked in a freezing room or deny him sleep for days on end, sometimes he'll blurt out the truth. But more often than not, tortured prisoners will say whatever they think their interrogator wants to hear, whether true or not, to end their suffering. And keep in mind: When prisoners confirm what their interrogators already believe to be true, interrogators are often highly tempted to believe it. Torture tends to confirm whatever false assumptions the intelligence community brings into an interrogation.

Perhaps the best example of this involves one of the first prisoners to be subjected to extraordinary rendition after September 11 -- a suspected al-Qaeda member named Ibn al-Sheikh al-Libi. At first, al-Libi was held by the FBI, which used traditional, tried and true, psychological interrogation methods. The FBI was apparently making progress. But the administration lost patience, turned him over to the CIA, which applied its enhanced procedures, and eventually sent him to be interrogated in Egypt. Reportedly, Libi's family was threatened; he was waterboarded; and he was forced to remain standing overnight in a cold cell while being repeatedly doused with icy water.

Libi eventually told his interrogators exactly what the administration wanted to hear: That Saddam Hussein was helping al-Qaeda obtain chemical weapons. This false information became one of the most powerful arguments for the war in Iraq, and the closing argument in Colin Powell's presentation to the U.N. Security Council in February, 2003. One of the greatest intelligence failures in American history came about in part because the administration believed in the CIA program and the tortured confessions it produced.

How much more good intelligence was lost because of the use of these methods? How many false leads have intelligence agencies wasted their time following as a result? How many innocent people have been detained, and how many guilty people have escaped capture? We will probably never know. But the damage has surely been great. And the United States did not have to endure it.

Talk to the military interrogators who are using the professional, humane interrogation methods outlined in the U.S. Army Field Manual on Intelligence Interrogation. They will tell you that these methods are far more reliable in obtaining truthful, useful intelligence than the amateurish and cruel methods the CIA used in its facilities. As for detention of dangerous terrorists -- talk to the career prosecutors at the Justice Department. They will tell you that they know how to bring terrorists to justice in ways that showcase America's commitment to the rule of law.

Consider this: In the 6 years since September 11, the administration's system of holding terrorists in secret detention while creating an entirely new system of military justice to handle terrorism crimes has resulted in exactly zero prosecutions of anyone remotely connected to those attacks. Only one man has been convicted in this system -- an Australian former kangaroo trapper who was at best a bit player in al-Qaeda, and who got just 9 months in prison, which he's serving in Australia.

What's more, no one is complaining that the men sentenced in the Federal courts were treated unjustly. No one is clamoring for their release. Al-Qaeda cannot exploit their fate to recruit more terrorists to its ranks. To use one of President Bush's favorite phrases, those terrorists who got justice with due process are no longer a problem for the United States of America. Every single person who's been held in Guantanamo, or in a secret prison, or subject to extraordinary rendition remains a profound problem for the United States. legislative solutions

The legislation you've proposed, Senator Biden, addresses a major part of this problem. Human Rights Watch strongly supports the fundamental goals of your bill -- to protect legitimate intelligence activities, while getting the CIA out of the detention business, limiting rendition to cases where a prisoner is sent to face justice with due process, and having an independent court review transfers to ensure that no one is sent to face torture or detention without charge.

Drafting language to accomplish these goals is extraordinarily difficult, especially when we have an administration that believes that Congress's job is to enact loopholes, not laws. This administration has a long track record of interpreting what appear to be clear prohibitions on outrageous government conduct in ways that allow the President to do virtually whatever he wants -- and of keeping these interpretations secret so that no one can challenge them. As your bill moves forward, Mr. Chairman, I trust that you will continue to look carefully at the language, and to make any adjustments that may be necessary to ensure that it definitively shuts the door on the extraterritorial detention and rendition to torture that you seek to prohibit.

First, while your bill requires the FISA Court to evaluate humane treatment assurances from a foreign government in light of that government's overall record on torture and the individual circumstances of the detainee -- rather than simply accepting humane treatment assurances -- the detainee himself has no opportunity to raise fears of torture or persecution to the court. As we've seen in the case of Guantanamo detainees, each of these cases is highly individualized. Some prisoners from countries with poor human rights records very much want to go home; others have legitimate, personal reasons to fear mistreatment, based on their own past activities and dealings with their home governments. The process you seek to create should give prisoners an opportunity to make such concerns known to the court, with proper representation, so that they can be fairly evaluated, and to challenge assurances the United States receives from their home countries.

Second, this raises the question of whether the FISA Court provides the best oversight mechanism for this process. While I understand your desire to respect the sensitive nature of intelligence activities, it may prove very difficult to design a process in the FISA Court, which operates on an ex parte basis, that allows prisoners a fair chance to raise legitimate concerns about torture and persecution before their transfer. An alternative would be to mandate a special article III court to sit by designation -- abroad if necessary -- on cases involving overseas detention. Designated panels of Federal judges, with existing rules of procedure and experienced in trials, fact-finding, and strong, tested rules for dealing with classified evidence, could well prove better able to handle the hearings envisioned in your legislation, and to give the process the legitimacy it needs. Congress has created numerous courts in the past to sit on cases involving particular topics or places, even courts in foreign countries.

I would add that the prisoners in Guantanamo Bay also need a process that gives them advance notice of transfers to other countries and an opportunity to raise concerns about torture. I know your legislation is not intended to deal with the special issues raised by Guantanamo -- but that is an important piece of the larger puzzle that Congress needs to address somewhere.

Third, while your bill requires prisoners taken into custody by the CIA to be transferred in a timely manner to face justice with due process -- as soon as a rendition order is received from the oversight court -- it doesn't set a time limit within which such an order must be issued. A limit would be important to prevent the government from deliberately prolonging CIA detention by, for example, not providing the court with the information it needs in a timely manner.

Even if the process is conducted in a "timely" manner, prisoners would still spend some period of time in CIA detention. This raises a number of important legal concerns. At the very least, I would urge you to require that the International Committee of the Red Cross have access to all detainees in U.S. custody, including those held by the CIA. There is simply no logical reason why any prisoner should be hidden from the ICRC, unless the CIA wants to use interrogation techniques that are in any case illegal, immoral, and unreliable. Allowing ICRC access to all detainees would not interfere with any legitimate intelligence gathering activities, while assuring the world that the United States is abiding by its values and the law, and preserving America's ability to demand ICRC access to its own soldiers and citizens being held in conflicts abroad.

I would also recommend that your bill require the administration to report on the fate of rendered prisoners in a public way, rather than in classified form to the Intelligence committees. The clear intent of the legislation is for rendered detainees to be prosecuted in their home countries in accordance with international due process standards. The United States would have no need to keep the fate of these people secret if it were asking the receiving governments to settle their fate in an open, transparent process -- as you intend.

Finally, Mr. Chairman, I want to commend you for including a provision in your bill that limits all agencies of the U.S. Government to the interrogation techniques described in the Army Field Manual on Intelligence Interrogation.

Ever since the Congress passed the McCain amendment in 2005, the CIA has reportedly limited itself to those humane techniques. In that time, it has repeatedly claimed that it was getting good intelligence from prisoners in its custody.

The Executive order President Bush issued July 20 appears to prohibit torture and cruel treatment. But the administration has not released the actual guidance it is giving the CIA. Administration officials have said that guidance is designed to allow the CIA to return to at least some aspects of the old "enhanced" interrogation program. The administration clearly believes that the CIA now has the authority to go beyond the guidelines the U.S. military lives by. Officials -- including Attorney General Alberto Gonzales testifying to the Senate 2 days ago -- have categorically refused to rule out interrogation techniques like waterboarding that clearly constitute torture. The Director of National Intelligence, Admiral John McConnell, even acknowledged on "Meet the Press" on Sunday that he would not want to see American citizens subjected to the techniques the CIA can now use again. All he could say by way of reassurance was that those subject to these methods would not suffer "permanent harm."

Admiral McConnell seems to be missing an elementary point: If the U.S. Government does not want American citizens or soldiers to be subjected to these techniques, then it cannot employ them itself. Remember: Everyone now agrees that Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions governs all interrogations conducted by all agencies. If the CIA is allowed to use a particular method under the new Executive order, that means the U.S. Government considers that method to be compliant with Common Article 3. And if it's compliant, that means U.S. enemies can use it against captured Americans in any situation governed by Common Article 3.

Your legislation fixes this problem in the right way. The United States Government should not have two different standards of morality and lawful behavior, depending on which agency is holding a prisoner. It cannot teach its soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan that harsh interrogation techniques are counterproductive and wrong, while telling its intelligence agencies that the same techniques are productive and right. And it can't expect the techniques the CIA is using to remain secret. Eventually, these methods always come to light. And America will not regain its moral authority unless it can speak with absolute moral clarity on the issue of torture.

Mr. Chairman, that we are even having this discussion in America is profoundly sad. How this country treats its enemies ought to be what distinguishes it from its enemies. The story of how it has actually done so in the last few years is not one of which we can be proud. But the full story has not yet been written. And when historians tell it many years from now, a more hopeful narrative may emerge. It will, I hope, go like this. That America was hit hard on September 11, 2001. It tried to react in ways that were honorable and smart, but also made some terrible mistakes out of fear. But in a relatively short period of time, its democratic institutions corrected those mistakes, just as they were designed to do. That is a story of which, on balance, I would be proud. I'm glad to see that this committee wants to play its part in writing it.

We are now nearly 6 years into a greatly intensified global struggle against violent Islamist extremism. In several ways, we are involved in armed conflicts. But though we are at war, the struggle is much more than a war and the American military will not be the main shield of our Republic.

There is a pattern in how our country tends to react to the trauma of surprising reversals or attack. In 1917-18, 1940 to 1942, or 1950 to 1952, the United States mobilized everything that was to hand followed by a vast outpouring of spending and energy, trying whatever it could, making many mistakes, but also getting some things right. These past episodes have always been followed by a period when we catch our collective breath, reflect a little on what we have been doing, and decide how or whether to make lasting changes in the way we protect our country. We are in just such a period today. That means a good, healthy national debate.

I've contributed to the public debate about how to treat captives. Rather than repeat those remarks, they're attached as an annex to my statement. As you'll see, I agree with many of the premises that Chairman Biden announced for this hearing. Our ideals do matter. They matter, not just for public opinion, they matter concretely in the quality of operational collaboration and what must be a coalition effort, to succeed in this struggle.

Today I want to focus more directly on some of the policy ideas under consideration by the committee, especially concerning renditions, and make four basic points.

One, renditions are an indispensable instrument of policy in order to protect the United States. Two, concerns about rendition have less to do with the practice itself, than with arguments about how the captives may be treated at their point of arrival. If that is the concern, then confront it directly and substantively. Three, the practice of renditions has already changed from what it was in 2002 and 2003. It is continuing to evolve along with many other facets of American policy. So, I urge the committee to be careful not to overreact now, to the way you think people may have overreacted then, years ago. Four, the particular proposed remedy of banning participation in renditions, except if approved by FISA Court, could create lasting risks that might outweigh the original concerns.

Renditions are vital. There are many situations when formal extradition of deportation of terrorist suspects is not a viable option. The practice of rendition itself has repeatedly been upheld in cases, both in the United States and in Europe.

To give you a sense of how this works in practice, I tried in my statement to give you the concrete hypothetical illustration of a Yemeni terrorist suspect in Malaysia and the options people would confront in figuring out what to do with that person. I won't recapitulate all that in detail here, except to say that dilemmas like these involve an intricate weighing of circumstances and risks: The risk to America; the risk to the person if he is sent to Yemen; appraisals of opportunities to gather further intelligence about the person's plans or associates; U.S. assessments of and relationships with both Malaysia and Yemen; and so on.

So then you have to decide who is best positioned and what institutions are best positioned to make those complicated judgments, often under very severe time pressure.

But we should get at the heart of the problem. The practice of renditions itself is not the main concern. So called "extraordinary renditions" appear to be focused, not on renditions to trial, instead the concern is with renditions for purposes of interrogation outside the normal legal system with the expectation that the detainee will be tortured or subjected to other cruel or inhuman treatment.

So my suggestion, which I elaborate in the statement, if you're concerned about the way people are treated at Guantanamo, address that directly. If you're concerned with how people are treated in Yemen, or how people are treated in Saudi Arabia, then let's look at that problem. But again, however, the various obligations must be considered together, including the obligation to protect the people of the United States.

If Guantanamo is closed down with no replacement under the Law of Armed Conflict, if practically all the home countries of captives are regarded as inhumane destinations for a terrorist suspect, then the default mode for everyone involved -- the path of least resistance, will be to do nothing.

Third, I suggested using oversight. Practices may be changing. Most, if not all, of the principal allegations of abusive rendition are several years old and appear to date from the period of initial mobilization after the 9/11 attacks. Therefore, to avoid the possibility of overreacting to practices that may already have changed or be changing, I suggest Congress might use its oversight powers to look at specific cases, make a diagnosis, see if lessons have been learned. The Congress will also find, I think, that some of the accountable senior officials have changed and it can judge whether the current office holders are worthy of public trust. Because I think, actually, a lot of this legislation is, frankly, a symptom of a breakdown of trust in executive discretion.

Beginning in 2005, the U.S. Government began comprehensively reviewing a number of aspects of its treatment of persons captured in the struggle against violent extremism. This review occurred for many reasons. And one, as I mentioned earlier, is that this is not just a problem of public opinion. It interferes concretely with our coalition warfare against terrorism around the world. The Congress and the Supreme Court played important parts in these reevaluations, culminating in President Bush's statement of September 2006. The administration made a number of moves, many of which are not well understood and which are recounted in more detail in the remarks I put into the statement.

Look, some of you may be satisfied with the administration's progress so far, some not. My main point is this. These issues can, and should now be, handled in a genuine partnership of shared powers between the President and Congress. They are now working in more of a partnership than they were. That partnership also extends to foreign governments.

In 2004, the 9/11 Commission, which I had the honor to direct, bluntly recommended that the United States turn a national strategy into a coalition strategy, and in fact, adopt Geneva Convention Common Article 3 as the floor for treatment of captives. That is now the law and policy of the United States.

In September 2006, President Bush pledged that the administration would, "work with the international community to construct a common foundation to defend our Nation and protect our freedoms." The administration and State Department specifically have been working hard to develop a coalition approach.

I have noted that the draft legislation also includes a requirement that all questioning conducted by intelligence officials should conform with the requirements of the Army field manual. As some of you can tell from my earlier remarks on this subject, which I'm not recapitulating in detail today, I sympathize strongly with the concern about interrogation practices. But I believe that members may have underestimated the significance of the President's recent Executive order.

That order not only defines the scope of prohibited conduct just as strongly as the draft bill, equating cruel and inhuman treatment to the prohibitions of the 5th, 8th, and 14th amendments. The Executive order goes beyond the draft legislation. It adds prohibitions that also conform to generally recognized international standards as well, that have come out of the international trials of Yugoslav criminals, for example.

Properly applied, I believe the Executive order can set interrogation practices on a sustainable path and does address concerns about some of the practices that have been alleged in the media. As, in part because of the new partnership with Congress, all the members of the intelligence committees know what practices are going to be allowed under that Executive order. And there can be a colloquy between the administration and Members of Congress now, a much healthier colloquy about whether the dial has been set in the right place.

But the circumstances of the intelligence community and this program may warrant a bit more flexibility than is needed or wanted in the Army field manual. In other words, though the balance may not satisfy everyone, these policies are on a healthier path. I do support new legislation on Guantanamo. But on rendition and interrogation, I urge the appropriate committees to look hard at what is being done and be sure they still believe there is a systemic problem before they legislate new systemic solutions.

My final point, my statement now is that the risks of the cure might outweigh the risks of the problem. There are real risks of executive abuse. You've heard about those risks already. In my statement I tried to illuminate the risks of the other side. And what I did, is I re-ran the circumstances of the 9/11 plot itself against this new legislation.

For example, in late 1999 and early 2000 we tracked two members who later participated in the 9/11 attacks to a meeting with some of their colleagues in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. So what I did is imagine -- let's suppose that we had done just the job the 9/11 Commission wanted the intelligence community to do about that Kuala Lumpur meeting. They've now done all of our recommendations. They're doing it just the right way. They've tracked the people, they've assimilated what they know about them, they're ready to act. And then what I did in this hypothetical is, I then ran the requirements of the legislation against what they would have to do about those people in Kuala Lumpur, and I go through it point by point. I won't go through that again now in my oral statement, but I think it's a pretty intimidating set of hurdles that they would have to confront.

And, my conclusion was then, that you would have a scenario in which all the problems that the 9/11 Commission identified having been wondrously and happily solved. New hurdles have arisen, officials would hesitate about whether they should strenuously lobby Malaysian officials to detain these individuals at all. Due efforts would then be made to keep watching the men before they moved on, but they would move on with their planning and with their actions.

As I mentioned earlier, there is a balance of risks involved in calculating how to deal with the problem of renditions, as with so many other aspects of this global struggle. Congress and the Executive should shoulder directly the burden of setting this country's core values and policies for this difficult struggle. I don't think that you should respond, essentially, to the breakdown of trust in executive discretion by creating a whole new set of statutory requirements and then a whole new court process to overcome that breakdown of trust and concern about discretion. Instead, I think it's too early to give up on solving that problem, if you look hard at how this is already changing in the last year or two and could change further aided by congressional oversight.

We are now nearly 6 years into a greatly intensified, global struggle against violent Islamist extremism. In several ways we are involved in armed conflicts. But, though we are at war, this struggle is much more than a war. And the American military will not be the main shield of our Republic.

I have had unusual opportunities to consider these issues from several perspectives, as a lawyer, investigator, and policymaker.

As a civil rights lawyer in Texas more than 25 years ago, I represented Vietnamese shrimpers being attacked by domestic terrorists, the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Based on our successful experience, my colleague in that case -- an Alabama lawyer named Morris Dees -- and I later offered advice to Congress after the bombing in Oklahoma City. -- In the 1990s, while teaching at Harvard, I prepared a set of case studies, after fieldwork in Belfast and London, on policing in Northern Ireland. -- In 1997-1998, along with John Deutch and Ash Carter, I coauthored a study of how to counter a coming danger that we called "catastrophic terrorism." -- During the last 6 years I was a member of the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board, directed the Markle Foundation's bipartisan work on national security in the information age, served as the executive director of the 9/11 Commission, and in 2005-2006 -- as counselor of the State Department -- was a deputy to the Secretary for terrorism, homeland security, and intelligence policy. So I've tried to understand these problems from several different angles. And I am here today as a private individual, not as a representative of the administration.

There is a pattern in how our country tends to react to the trauma of surprising reversals or attack. In 1917-18, 1940-42, or 1950-52, the United States mobilized everything that was to hand, followed by a vast outpouring of spending and energy, trying whatever it could, making many mistakes, but also getting some things right.

These past episodes have always been followed by a period when we catch our collective breath, reflect a little on what we have been doing, and decide how or whether to make lasting changes in the way we protect our country. We are in such a period today. That means a good, healthy national debate.

I have contributed to the public debate about how to treat captives. Rather than repeat those remarks, they are attached as an annex to this statement. As readers will see, I agree with many of the premises of this hearing. Our ideals do matter.

Today I want to focus more directly on some of the policy ideas under consideration by the committee, especially concerning renditions and make four basic points: 1. Renditions are an indispensable instrument of policy in order to protect the United States. 2. Concerns about renditions have less to do with the practice itself, than with arguments about how the captives may be treated at their point of arrival. If that is the concern, then confront it directly and substantively. 3. The practice of renditions has already changed from what it was in 2002 and 2003. It is continuing to evolve, along with many other facets of American policy. So be careful not to overreact now to the way you think people may have overreacted then. 4. The particular proposed remedy of banning participation in renditions except if approved by a FISA Court could create lasting risks that outweigh the original concern. renditions are vital

There are many situations when formal extradition or deportation of terrorist suspects is not a viable option. The practice of rendition itself has repeatedly been upheld in cases both in the United States and in Europe.\1\ -

Take the case of a Yemeni, living in Malaysia. Let us say that the United States has gained signals intelligence indicating that this Yemeni national is involved in planning to attack some nearby American target, perhaps having taken detailed photographs of the American Embassies in Singapore and Bangkok -- but taking care not to violate local Malaysian law.

The activities and protection of a citizen of a foreign country living in a third country is first, the responsibility of the country of residence -- in this case, Malaysia. -- Second, his activities and protection is the responsibility of the country of which he has the good or bad fortune to be a citizen -- in this case, Yemen. The United States must protect Americans and act honorably in their name. Therefore, if it knows that the person is involved in potential terrorist activity against America, U.S. officials cannot let this slide. Since Malaysia has a responsible, sovereign government, the United States would work with Malaysian officials. If those authorities are persuaded that the United States concerns deserve action, they may help.

But Malaysia's ability to act is bounded by its laws, its politics, and its lack of access to some U.S. intelligence information. Formal extradition may not be available. Indeed, most countries do not have established bilateral extradition treaties with each other.

The Malaysian authorities also may feel uneasy about the situation. So all concerned may decide that it is time for this Yemeni citizen to go home. And the Yemeni Government, of course, is entitled to know why. It may even be asked to help contain the risk of this person going back to his terrorist work.

Since even many Yemenis cannot reliably predict what will happen to them in government custody, especially over time, it will be even harder for Americans and Malaysians to make a reliable guess. Yet, to the Yemeni resident in Malaysia the United States Government owes the obligations it owes to any of the billions of human beings in the world, such as the duty not to send anyone, knowingly, off to be tortured.

Dilemmas like these involve an intricate weighing of circumstances and risks: The risk to America; the risk to the person if he is sent to Yemen; appraisals of opportunities to gather further intelligence about the person's plans or associates; U.S. assessments of, and relationships with, both Malaysia and Yemen and so on. get at the heart of the problem

The practice of renditions itself is not the main concern. So- called "extraordinary renditions" appear to be focused not on renditions to trial. Instead the concern is with renditions for purposes of interrogation outside the normal legal system, with the expectation that the detainee will be tortured or subjected to other cruel or inhuman treatment.

So, is the real concern with renditions that the captive will be detained at Guantanamo as an enemy combatant, or questioned inhumanely by U.S. officials? Then the Congress could again take on the policy issue of how or whether it wants Executive officials to detain and question captives under the international law of armed conflict. Nor is it really an answer to just set up new rights of habeas access to the Federal courts.\2\ -

Or, is the real concern that Yemen or some other country will mistreat its own citizens if they are involuntarily repatriated? This then becomes part of a larger set of issues, about the responsibility of the United States for how other countries treat their citizens, on their territory.

The United States has moral and legal responsibility if it has arranged or participated in the involuntary repatriation of a person back to his home country. Therefore, as Secretary Rice explained publicly in December 2005: "In conducting such renditions, it is the policy of the United States, and I presume of any other democracies who use this procedure, to comply with its laws and comply with its treaty obligations, including those under the Convention Against Torture. . . . The United States has not transported anyone, and will not transport anyone, to a country when we believe he will be tortured. Where appropriate, the United States seeks assurances that transferred persons will not be tortured."

Again, however, the various obligations must be considered together, including the obligation to protect the people of the United States. If Guantanamo is closed down with no replacement under the law of armed conflict, if practically all the home countries of captives are regarded as inhumane destinations for a terrorist suspect, then the default mode for everyone involved -- the path of least resistance -- will be to do nothing. use oversight . . . practices may be changing

Most, if not all, of the principal allegations of abuse of rendition are several years old, and appear to date from the period of initial mobilization after the 9/11 attacks. Therefore, to avoid the possibility of overreacting to practices that may already have changed, or be changing, Congress might use its oversight powers to review specific cases. Make a diagnosis. See if lessons have been learned. The Congress will also find that some of the accountable senior officials have changed and it can judge whether the current officeholders are worthy of public trust.

I was recently impressed by the British Parliament's own investigation of its government's involvement in renditions. This was an oversight report of the Intelligence and Security Committee, which in turn elicited an appropriate government response. Although the investigators sheltered themselves a bit too cozily from the hard dilemmas I have outlined above, they did display sensible professionalism in sifting myth from fact, and there is quite a bit of myth surrounding allegations about "extraordinary rendition." \3\ -

Beginning in 2005, the U.S. Government began comprehensively reviewing a number of aspects of its treatment of persons captured in the struggle against violent Islamist extremism. This review occurred for many reasons. One was that increasing international concern is not just a problem of public opinion; such concern creates concrete obstacles to effective international operations.

The Congress and the Supreme Court also played important parts in these reevaluations. Culminating in President Bush's statement of September 2006 the administration made a number of moves, which are recounted in more detail in the remarks I have appended to this statement.

Some of you may be satisfied with the administration's progress so far; some not. My main point is this: These issues can and should now be handled in a genuine partnership of shared powers between the President and Congress. That partnership also extends to foreign governments.

In 2004 the 9/11 Commission bluntly recommended that the United States turn "a national strategy into a coalition strategy," adding that "coalition warfare also requires coalition policies on what to do with enemy captives." \4\ That is one reason why, to make an armed conflict approach sustainable, the Commission was the first major public report to endorse adoption of Geneva Convention Common Article 3 as a common foundation. -

In September 2006 President Bush pledged that the administration would "work with the international community to construct a common foundation to defend our Nation and protect our freedoms." The administration, and the State Department specifically, has been working hard to develop a coalition approach. As a result of meetings in many countries over the last year and a half, there is growing recognition of how difficult the challenge is and of the need for creative, practical solutions to sustain the rule of law in what some European officials concede is the "grey area" between established procedures and approaches that fall outside of recognized legal principles.\5\ -

I have noted that the draft legislation also includes a requirement that all questioning conducted by intelligence officials would conform with the requirements of the Army Field Manual. As you can tell from my earlier remarks on this subject, I sympathize strongly with the concern about interrogation practices. But I believe that members may have underestimated the significance of the President's recent Executive order.

That order not only defines the scope of prohibited conduct just as strongly as the draft bill, equating cruel and inhuman treatment to the prohibitions of the 5th, 8th, and 14th amendments; the EO goes beyond the draft legislation. It adds prohibitions that also conform to generally recognized international standards as well. Properly applied, I believe the EO can set interrogation practices on a sustainable path, addressing concerns about some of the practices that have been alleged in the media. But the circumstances of the intelligence community and this program may warrant a bit more flexibility than is needed or wanted in the Army Field Manual.

In other words, though the balance may not satisfy everyone, these policies are on a healthier path. I do support new legislation on Guantanamo. But on rendition and interrogation, I urge the appropriate committees to look hard at what is being done and be sure they believe there is still a systemic problem before legislating a new, systemic solution. risks of a cure may outweigh the problem

There are real risks of Executive abuse. You have heard about those risks already. So I will say more about the risks on the other side, the risk of hobbling vital action. As an illustration we can use part of the 9/11 plot.

In late 1999 the NSA analyzed communications associated with individuals who later participated in the 9/11 attacks -- especially Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi. Intelligence officials correctly concluded these two people were part of an operational cadre. They were tracked to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The United States did not know it, but those two were joined there by two other members of the cell involved in an early version of the "planes operation." Those four men also met with and were aided by a top Southeast Asian operative named Hambali, who set them up at the home of another important terrorist, Yazid Sufaat.

Supposing that it had some of the management practices, tools, and procedures now in place, the U.S. Government might have done more than just track Mihdhar and Hazmi to Kuala Lumpur. It might have more fully assimilated what its agencies knew about these two men and prepared rapidly to act on that information.

Leave the two men alone and try to keep tracking them. All these individuals soon began traveling in different directions. The United States did not know it, but Mihdhar and Hazmi were going to Bangkok, where the trail might be lost (as it was in January 2000). -- Ask Malaysian authorities to detain them. Since the U.S. officials had key information about Mihdhar and Hazmi, the United States probably needed to participate directly in the detention, questioning, and rapid exploitation of captured materials, perhaps leading them to Hambali, Sufaat, and the others. -- But the United States probably would not have captured hard evidence about the planned "planes operation." So any further decisions would be based on intelligence about evident planning for some operation, still unclear. -- Even if the Malaysian security services had obliged with some temporary arrest or detention, the Malaysians might well feel no wish to hold Mihdhar and Hazmi, or any other individuals who might have been detained in this operation. None, besides Sufaat, were Malaysian. They had committed no evident crimes in Malaysia. They were not planning any attacks in Malaysia. Malaysia was then ruled by Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamed, who was not very receptive to U.S. concerns about Islamist extremism and would have had little appetite for any public proceedings, even if the grounds had been firmer. And, anyway, little if any of the key American evidence could be used in a public court. -- So the United States could then either release the men or, under current options, render them into American custody with a possible end destination at Guantanamo, with all that implies. -- If that option seemed unappealing, the best alternative to indefinite and problematical American custody would be a rendition to send the men back to their home countries. For Mihdhar and Hazmi that would be Saudi Arabia (though Mihdhar also retained strong ties to Yemen). Under the draft proposed legislation that I have reviewed, called the "National Security with Justice Act of 2007," the U.S. Government officials would then face the following hurdles, perhaps with the clock ticking on Malaysian willingness to hold these men for even another hour:

Overcome a statutory presumption firmly against rendition, or even participating in such a rendition; -- Prepare an application to a Federal judge in Washington, DC, and first get it reviewed by the Attorney General or his deputy; -- Affirm in writing that each individual is "an international terrorist"; -- Pledge that the Saudi Government will not subject either man to cruel or inhuman treatment; -- Pledge that the Saudi Government will initiate timely legal proceedings against the men that comport with fundamental due process; -- State in writing why Malaysian courts (or its politics) are not likely to succeed in handling these men adequately (presumably getting State Department clearance for the depiction of Prime Minister Mahathir's government); -- Make sure the Federal judge can consult all the State Department and U.N. reports about Saudi Arabia that the law expressly requires the judge to check; -- Hope that the Federal judge will make a positive finding of "substantial likelihood" that Saudi Arabia will not subject either man to cruel or inhuman treatment; -- Promise that the State Department will regularly monitor Saudi treatment of both these men for as many months or years as they may be confined, reporting on their status to the Congress every 6 months; and -- Persuade his agency heads to assume the risk of the civil suit provided for by law if the rendition violated the above rules, with the litigant entitled to sue for punitive damages and attorney's fees. Thus a scenario in which, all the problems that the 9/11 Commission identified having been wondrously and happily solved, new hurdles have arisen. Officials hesitate about whether they should strenuously lobby Malaysian officials to detain these individuals at all. Due efforts would be made to keep watching the men before they moved on. And they would move on with their planning and with their actions.

As mentioned earlier, there is a balance of risks involved in calculating how to deal with the problem of renditions, as with so many other aspects of this global struggle. Congress and the Executive should shoulder, directly, the burden of setting this country's core values and policies for this difficult struggle. ANNEX "Legal Policy for a Twilight War" by Philip Zelikow, White Burkett Miller Professor of History, University of Virginia -- Annual Lecture, Houston Journal of International Law, April 26, 2007 After the 9/11 attack on the United States, the U.S. Government adopted a different approach to defending the country against attack from the al-Qaeda organization, its affiliates, and its allies. The new approach was fundamentally sound. Yet it was developed and implemented in a flawed manner, and these problems were then greatly compounded by the way law and lawyers were used to rationalize the policy and frame the debate.

In 2006 the policy approach was greatly revised, though the character and significance of the changes are still largely unrecognized. A difficult, healthy transition is now well under way and will need to continue for some time to come. As part of that transition, the United States Government, and those who follow its work should deeply reflect upon and reconsider the role that law and lawyers have played in framing the policy choices. I come at these issues as both a lawyer and former policymaker.

Before 9/11 our conceptual framework was mainly the framework of traditional American criminal justice. Bin Ladin was indicted in the Southern District of New York. Naturally, neither the FBI nor the U.S. Marshals service could apprehend him or his principal associates. Therefore the United States Government asked foreign governments to help and also secretly hired foreign friends to try to capture him, using deadly force only if necessary. There were brief exceptions to this approach in 1998, but the government had lapsed back into this default position by the middle of 1999. The story is recounted in the report of the 9/11 Commission.

The 9/11 attack was at least the third major intercontinental operation that al-Qaeda had carried out against the United States. Al- Qaeda's leaders had asserted for years that their organization and its allies were at war with the United States. And, after the 9/11 attack, the United States Government finally, completely agreed with them. The United States then began engaging in an armed conflict with al-Qaeda, its affiliates, and its allies. That worldwide conflict continues today.

An enormous debate also began in this country and around the world about the appropriate way to conduct such a conflict. In this country, as in every other developed country, the debate has been dominated by lawyers arguing with other lawyers. Their debate is about what the law -- U.S. law or international law -- allows and does not allow. i. how lawyers found themselves at the center of the policy debate

The policy choices in the conduct of this armed conflict were novel. Put aside the rules governing combat operations in Afghanistan itself in 2001-2002. In other operations the administration had to set policies for lethal engagement of enemy members of al-Qaeda, its affiliates, and its allies; for the transfer of captives to preferred jurisdictions; for the questioning of captives; and for their longer term detention. For many of these choices there was no established body of experience or precedents.

For the CIA and DOD in particular, some of these activities involved developing entirely new organizational capacities that did not exist, or no longer existed, in their institutions. Any seasoned manager or student of organizations knows how challenging it can be for an organization to develop new capacities, with all the requirements to define tasks, guide implementation, build physical capacities, and recruit/train/manage people to perform these new jobs.

Operating under broad legal parameters set shortly after the 9/11 attacks, a series of policy choices were made, especially in 2002 and 2003, about how to conduct the armed conflict. Especially in the case of CIA, it appears from publicly available sources that, responding to some informal guidance from the White House, the Agency designed, developed, and implemented various techniques and capabilities with little substantive policy analysis or interagency consideration.

Lawyers from other agencies and departments, as well as the White House, were apparently assembled to consider and approve the legality of the proposed methods as, or after, the critical policy choices were being or had already been made. The legal defense then became the public face of the policies. The debate became framed as a legal debate. Legal opinions became policy guides. Opinions to sustain the CIA program had an indirect effect on the guidelines developed for DOD activities as well, since DOD did not wish to develop positions inconsistent with those already in place.

Able bureaucratic players in the Bush administration were able to use legal opinions to provide formal policy cover for Agency operations and deal with internal dissent and unease ("the Attorney General has said it is legal"). Above all, using the legal defenses as the public face of the issue moved the terrain of debate to the President's legal powers in wartime -- strong ground indeed. Also interesting is that opponents of the policies found this battleground congenial too. Habits of thinking in legal terms were reinforced. Constitutional and civil liberties lawyers eagerly stepped forward, and they could do so without having to soil their hands by confronting the concrete policy necessities at hand. Thus the public debate was decisively framed -- and deformed. ii. reframing the debate: from "can" to "should"

In other words, instead of asking: What can we do?, start by asking: What should we do? Just this difference, changing "can or cannot" to "should or should not" changes the framework of debate, changes the evidence and reasoning you use, and changes the role that lawyers should play in the policy process.

By "legal policy," I mean those policies for the enforcement of international, criminal, or civil law and the policies for the effective administration of justice.

Lawyers are not generally trained in legal policy. Even some of the finest lawyers cannot be considered expert in it. Confronted with a novel problem, the habit of thought developed in law schools, and practice, is to spot the legal issue and determine an authoritative, or at least arguable, position on what the law requires. It is important for lawyers, and those who use them, to know the strengths and limitations of these skills. Two examples:

First, moral reasoning. Moral reasoning, which most people think has something to do with "right and wrong," is not taught in law school. The relationship of law to morality is an interesting question, wonderfully explored by thinkers as diverse as Edmond Cahn and James Q. Wilson. But, for better or worse, moral reasoning is not generally taught in law school. Nor is it generally taught -- by the way -- in schools of public policy. "Ethics" is taught, but that is actually a different set of ideas, though the two subjects overlap.

Second, policing and public order. Generally law schools do not teach about policing, or how societies go about preserving public order. Of course you will find courses on criminal law and criminal procedure, but that is quite different. In fact, in our most elite universities, policing is vaguely regarded as left to vocational schools. To be even blunter, it's perceived as a blue-collar subject. There are rare exceptions. And there are rare policemen and policewomen, or court administrators or corrections officials who can step up to engage in the wider issues of public policy that frame what they do. But I've seen firsthand -- in places like Iraq and Afghanistan -- just how difficult it has been for this country to find experts and help others in tackling the basic policy issues of policing and public order that are so evident in so much of the world.

So, as the United States Government developed a new approach to combating Islamist terrorists around the world, many of the formative deliberations were defaulted to being conducted, at the subcabinet level and below, by lawyers -- mainly constitutional lawyers. It was the hour of experts like John Yoo, a brilliant scholar who has recently published an illustrative memoir of these experiences.

And these lawyers tended to look for the legal answer. And so the problem tended to be framed less as a detailed analysis of what should be done, and more as a problem of what could be done.

The worldwide conduct of armed conflict and other actions against al-Qaeda, its affiliates, and its allies presents an exceptionally complex and uncertain set of rules. There are arguments over the scope and reach of international law and the meaning of the relevant international legal concepts even if they do apply. There are arguments over the boundaries between international law, military law, and ordinary domestic ("municipal" is the technical term) laws. And the arguments over these boundaries set off various theological disputes that have political resonance in the United States and other countries.

So by applying legal interpretation to this set of issues, instead of legal policymaking, we do so in an area where the legal sources are few and fragmentary, uncertain and contested. The arguments immediately become polarized, because they invoke clashing philosophies of international and constitutional law.

To the public at large, the arguments quickly become technical. And they are therefore coarsened into: Are you for civil liberties? Are you for fighting terrorism? And the polarization of "liberty versus security" is one of the most vicious byproducts of the debate. This can be politically useful, but it is bad policy.

The direct results were indeed simple and bipolar. For the administration, in such a murky and contested area of law, it was easy to make plausible arguments that a great many things could be done. Indeed the administration feared it would set limiting legal precedents to take any other view as a matter of law.

For the enemies of the administration, it was obvious that they should argue established legal protections were being trampled. And if one takes the view that the original pre-9/11 paradigm -- criminal justice plus diplomacy -- remains in force, then everything needs to be done in accordance with established precedents, Article III courts, and the Bill of Rights. iii. a legal policy perspective: should we treat this as an armed conflict?

The first stage after 9/11 was the transition of the core paradigm from criminal justice to the paradigm of armed conflict. Viewed from a policy perspective, that transition needs to be defended as something we should do, and continue doing, not just as something we can do, and are legally able to continue doing. From this same policy perspective, it would be wise to achieve the essential assent of the Congress and key allies that it was -- and is -- now necessary to deal with this problem as an armed conflict, and then work with relevant partners to develop effective, common rules of engagement.

Philip Zelikow

The criminal justice framework has been developed for use against a finite group with a relatively small number of individuals who are within a given jurisdiction. With al-Qaeda, its affiliates, and its allies the United States confronted large, transnational substate groups that had a partnership with at least one former regime (Taliban Afghanistan). These groups still prefer to operate in areas where nominal state sovereignty is ineffective or nonexistent. -- There are special problems of scale. The problem is well beyond the scale we would traditionally associate with a criminal conspiracy, even with the kind of terrorist groups that we had become used to dealing with in the 1980s, which tended to be associated more with state sponsors of terrorism. -- The threat is also qualitatively different. Societies tolerate certain risks and limitations when they deal with more ordinary crime. But now the United States was confronting groups with the demonstrated capacity to carry out acts that can kill thousands of Americans on a beautiful fall morning and inflict at least tens of billions of dollars worth of prompt, direct damage to the American economy just within the first hour. That level of risk challenges the usual assumptions in fashioning legal policy. -- It is harder to apprehend suspects. The problem with al-Qaida in Afghanistan was obvious, but other, similar challenges exist today. In some cases local governments cannot or will not arrest enemies planning to attack the United States or its friends. In some cases the local governments may wish to help, but such arrests, or judicial extradition, is beyond their capacity. The governments involved will often concede their incapacity -- in private. -- Then there are problems in gathering evidence. Some of the pre-9/11 indictments were triumphs of investigation under extremely adverse circumstances. But in many circumstances, it will be hard to overcome those limits or be able to find the resources for the fantastically labor-intensive effort that's required to construct the criminal case from so many scattered fragments, when dealing with large numbers of individuals involved in many different kinds of violent acts. -- And those evidentiary investigations were all after the fact. Often they were triumphs of forensic reconstruction. But policymakers aren't paid to wait for the bodies and debris. There were and are compelling reasons to sustain the armed conflict approach, complemented by respect for local laws and responsible sovereignty.

It is therefore striking and regrettable that the United States has not persuaded most states, including many of our allies, to agree that a policy of armed conflict is appropriate. This is partly their fault, partly ours.

Many governments, including practically all of Western Europe, have never accepted any change from the pre-9/11 criminal justice/ diplomacy approach. Many of their leading politicians and lawyers are fundamentally pacifist and believe that armed conflict is rarely, if ever, a solution to a problem -- and certainly not if it is proposed by Americans. -- Some of these same governments feel they know the problem well, yet they have not actually been attacked or threatened on the scale suffered by the United States. And, while they still assess the risk as being more ordinary, they also lack the capabilities to join very effectively in more forceful or distasteful measures. So they turn such necessities into virtue. And the problem is our fault too. It is tempting for some local governments to let the Americans do the distasteful things that protect their people, too. Then these free riders can criticize and distance themselves as they wish. But it is unwise for America to play along with that game. When Americans design processes that are exclusively American -- "our show" -- because we do not want foreign intrusion, we contradict our argument that this is a global struggle waged in common with others and we encourage free riders.

To build an appropriate coaliton, at home and abroad, a leading government needs to do four things: (1) Accept the need for a real partnership where the other side gets to have some say and offer a process for policy cooperation -- not just tactical help on the case du jour. (2) Get out and make the policy case -- not just a legal argument -- for why a fundamentally different approach is needed. (3) Develop an interpretation of the new approach that, with work, can plausibly be sustained in the partner's politics. In other words, if they are receptive to the basic policy argument, develop a design for implementing it that they can defend. (4) If they want to help, identify tasks that they can do, with or without help, that commit them to the common enterprise. Despite many, many bilateral relationships and contacts, usually to solve a tactical problem of the moment, the United States Government did not begin such a systematic effort to build a coalition for this armed conflict against Islamist terrorism until 2005. Legal policy development is part of such an effort because, in running a multinational enterprise, policymakers need to ask their lawyers to develop a legal foundation that can work in foreign markets.

The obvious counterargument, of course, is that the prospective partners will offer aid so limpid and legal policies so unrealistic that it is worse than useless to lash up with them. To this the answers are also apparent:

Set the right terms for given partners. -- It will help that you made your policy case and sought a coalition, even if you fail. And the effort will be remembered if the prospective partner changes their views -- reevaluating the risk of attack or if other circumstances change. -- Sliding into habits of growing noncooperation and alienation is not just a problem of world opinion. It will eventually interfere -- and interfere very concretely -- with the conduct of worldwide operations. So far I have focused on the nature of the conflict itself. And, as President Bush says, it is a war. This is not a metaphorical point. Though the expression "armed conflict" is technically more precise, the United States is engaged in war against al-Qaeda, its affiliates, and allies in at least four ways.

A war in Afghanistan. That partly involves an enemy that is a transnational enemy, not simply a participant in an internal Afghan conflict. -- A war in Iraq. The war going on in Iraq is mainly internal. But it also has a transnational quality because transnational combatants and transnational organizations are combatants in that war. That fight, layered on the various internal struggles, is another reason why U.S. operations should be governed under international law and policies for armed conflict. -- Occasional operations to target terrorists in effectively ungoverned areas of the world where there is complete state failure or effective state failure. If terrorist organizations are actively planning violent attacks against Americans in places that are effectively ungoverned, the United States then has to have some kind of way of dealing with those organizations, which are at war with the United States. -- Advising and partnering with local governments in their military and paramilitary operations against Islamist terrorist organizations. "War" is not a misnomer. But it is insufficient. The struggle includes armed conflict but it is more than an armed conflict. It is not just a war.

Armed conflict is one aspect, and not even the most important aspect, of a wider struggle to defeat violent Islamist extremism and help moderate Arab and Muslim governments adapt peacefully to the modern world. And using "war" as the umbrella label signals to people that the U.S. Government doesn't "get" that fact. (Although I believe President Bush actually does get it.) iv. a legal policy perspective: questioning captives

The most important policy choices are guidelines on the circumstances for killing people; guidelines on how and when to transfer captives to different jurisdictions; guidelines on how to question captives; and guidelines on whether and how to detain them -- and for how long. In all these matters the guidelines extend to cover the character of cooperation with local partners who may help us with all these tasks.

These are all large subjects. I'll focus on just one, which is the most important: How we question captives.

Beliefs in how the United States questions captives colors discussion of every other aspect of the conduct of operations. For example, the controversy over transferring captives -- the quite defensible policy of renditions -- is fired by beliefs about how these people will be questioned when they arrive at their destination.

The administration has disclosed that, in 2002, the United States began making a series of important decisions about how it would question captives. In essence, the United States made careful, deliberate choices to place extreme physical pressure on captives, with accompanying psychological effects. The limits of those practices were set at the limits of Federal criminal prohibitions. The international legal strictures were interpreted so that they would not add any constraints beyond the chosen reading of American law. In other words, the policy guidelines devolved into legal guidelines, which were to do everything you can, so long as it is not punishable as a crime under American law.

Brilliant lawyers worked hard on how they could then construe the limits of vague, untested laws. They were operating so close to the frontiers of our law that, within only a couple of years, the Department of Justice eventually felt obliged to offer a second legal opinion, rewriting their original views of the subject. The policy results are imaginable and will someday become more fully known.

My point, though, is not to debate the delineation of the legal frontier. That focus obscures the core of the issue. The core of the issue, for legal policy, is this: What is moral -- not, what is legal? What is cost-beneficial? A. The moral question

The moral question is subjective, of course. It is closely related to another question: What standard of civilized behavior should the United States exemplify, in a fight to preserve civilization against barbarism?

My own view is that the cool, carefully considered, methodical, prolonged, and repeated subjection of captives to physical torment, and the accompanying psychological terror, is immoral. I offer no opinion as to whether such conduct is a Federal crime; merely that it is immoral.

My moral standards are entitled to no special regard. My argument is not that others should adopt my morality. It is that the responsible policy officials should explicitly, thoughtfully, employ moral reasoning of their own. And, further, my argument is that the substitution of detailed legal formulations for detailed moral ones is a deflection of responsibility. Such deflections, often unconscious, are too common in our modern age.

The quick moral justification is that a greater good is being served -- saving more lives. Three initial cautions are in order, before turning to this argument on its merits.

In most moral lexicons, there is some absolute core of behavior that is improper, whatever the policy gain. -- For that conduct which is morally problematical, but justifiable by necessity, the burden of proof may be high. Consider that the enemies we are fighting have used, even celebrated, the most barbaric and nihilistic tactics of violence ever employed by any terrorist organization in history. To the civilized world, this gives our Nation moral ground about as high as one could have. The policy case would need to be compelling indeed to persuade our officials that they should slide and stumble their way down into the valley. -- These dilemmas are not new in American history. There is a long history of experience with questioning captives, both in law enforcement and in several recent American wars. In World War II, for example, the United States had a special program for high-value captives; the British had a comparable program. The threats were very great; the fate of thousands of lives could hang in the balance in many ways and on many issues (from antisubmarine warfare to A-bomb research to campaign plans, etc.). There was much trickery and deception. But, as far as I know, neither government found it necessary to use methods analogous to those our government has more recently chosen. Some of these periods, like World War II, were hard and degrading. The moral climate was not quaint. Horrifying methods were authorized to win the war. But men like Henry Stimson or George Marshall -- or Winston Churchill -- did not rely on lawyers to tell them what was right and wrong. It is difficult to imagine such men recommending analogous interrogation techniques for President Roosevelt, much less doing the clever work of developing and designing them. B.

Good intelligence can be gained by physically tormenting captives. Some critics argue that physical coercion is always worthless and elicits garbage. This goes too far. Various experiences have shown that these methods can have value in breaking captives, and in doing it more quickly.

But the issue of how to obtain intelligence from questioning captives is a first-class intelligence collection problem. In every sense, it deserves the same professional attention that the United States devotes to its most important and powerful collection systems -- like those we use for signals and imagery.

A revealing study of the state of scientific knowledge on ways to elicit information from captives, euphemistically termed "educing," was recently prepared by a panel of the Intelligence Science Board. It is unclassified and available on the web at http://www.fas.org/irp/dni/ educing.pdf. The Israelis and the British have considerable recent experience with all the pros and cons, much of it a process of painful trial and error. My own 1994 case study of "Policing Northern Ireland" is available from the case program at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government. There are many other sources.

It is not evident that those who developed such methods, mainly at the CIA, drew on the available evidence and applied adequate professional analysis to consider it. From the evidence available in the unclassified literature, in 2002 the CIA had little organizational capability or experience in the interrogation of hostile captives. The FBI and other law enforcement agencies had much more relevant experience. The Department of Defense had some.

Everyone knows the scenario of the imminent terrorist operation that can be averted with desperately tough methods. But the "ticking time-bomb" scenario is mainly the invention of scriptwriters. Intelligence is usually more of a patiently assembled mosaic, where many pieces are usually missing, and leads are pursued to find more pieces. And even broken captives can reveal much, while hiding a little.

The administration cites examples of people who have been caught or operations that may have been stopped. It would be useful to have a professional, objective analysis of such successes in order to determine and illustrate the contributions of various forms of intelligence.

In such an analysis, the elementary question would not be: Did you get information that proved useful? Instead it would be: Did you get information that could have been usefully gained only from these methods?

This question is especially apt because the United States has been employing other sets of methods, under different rules, against extremely dangerous and hardened captives in places like Iraq. So there are many fruitful bases for comparison and learning. -- It is also apt because -- contrary to much public understanding -- a special intelligence program can actually derive its main added value from the readiness to devote a great deal of individualized time and expert attention to a high-value captive -- not from coercing him. No institution would benefit more from such an objective appraisal than the CIA itself. A reputation for relying on physical coercion can have some benefits, of course. But, over the long run, it might be better for the institution if CIA was regarded as special for its willingness to apply patient, labor-intensive expertise, rather than a (largely false) reputation of having the opposite preference.

Finally, once the gain from coercive techniques is better and more professionally understood, there is still the next step in the policy analysis, of balancing these gains against the moral stain and the political cost of relying, or appearing to rely, on physical torment.

All these suggestions can be criticized as a time-consuming, academic effort for which there was no time during the threatening days of 2002 and beyond. Yet, if the problem had been properly framed, the analytical effort suggested here could have been done quite rapidly, in days or weeks. And there were months and years to deepen understanding. To get some perspective, also reflect a moment on the effort private firms will devote to the analysis of far less consequential matters, from acquiring a company to building a refinery.

My hypothesis is that the problem was not properly framed, and that lawyerly interpretation was often substituted for thorough policy analysis at the critical and formative subcabinet and expert level. The result produced a situation in which cabinet principals, and the President, were not well served -- even if at the time they thought they were getting what they wanted in those very anxious days. In time, perhaps, more information will allow a firmer judgment on whether my hypothesis is correct. v. the transition of the american approach during 2006

This process of transition was spurred on by congressional action, especially the role of John McCain, and by the Supreme Court's decision last year. But the transition was already well underway in 2005 and all the main options had been fully developed before the Supreme Court ruled.

The public debate is still dominated by the lawyers, arguing over the details of the legislation passed last year. But it is important to recognize all the elements of the policy change embedded in and surrounding President Bush's more narrowly focused September 2006 address. I'll list just nine of the elements in this new paradigm.

4. Employing those military commissions for major war criminals and al-Qaeda's leaders, not Osama's driver. These commissions will finally bring the 9/11 conspirators to justice and, I hope, usher in a process where America will be reminded what the struggle is really about.

5. The decision announced in the East Room of the White House that America does intend to close Guantanamo. The glide path is necessarily lengthy and difficult, working on problems involving 33 different countries, many of whom don't want their people back. There are still decisions to be made about how to replace and improve the Guantanamo detention system.

Incidentally, the legislation passed in 2006 did not reinterpret the meaning of the terms in Article III. Congress and the United States, do not have the authority to reinterpret such international treaty terms unilaterally. The legislation did clarify the relation between those binding treaty provisions and the scope of Federal criminal liability for violating them, specified in Title 18 of the United States Code. 9. An offer to foreign governments, telling them that the United States Government has listened to their concerns and challenging them to work with us on what President Bush called "a common foundation to protect our nations and our freedoms."

The work of now building a more viable coalition, at home and abroad, is well begun. Foreign governments are now quietly wrestling with hard questions they had hitherto avoided, and in turn posing hard questions to American officials about the scope and character of their policies.

Philip Zelikow

This process is healthy. With this framework, and the predictable policy and political deliberations that are already unfolding, the United States has an excellent opportunity to develop a durable and effective legal policy approach for worldwide operations against Islamist terrorist groups. To keep the pendulum from swinging too hard back and forth, America's leaders need to strike the right policy balance, avoiding an unconscious slide back toward the magnetic poles of absolutist legal propositions.

Renditions are a vital counterterrorism tool, so vital that they must be used sparingly so that they can remain an effective part of the U.S. counterterrorism arsenal. Rather than stop renditions altogether, policymakers should increase the programs transparency, strengthen oversight efforts, and embed within the process procedures that ensure more accord with the rule of law.

For counterterrorism purposes, renditions are attractive for several reasons. Most important, they are often the only option for interrogating a suspect and bringing him to justice, when extradition is not politically or legally possible. In some countries of the world the formal court system is not a true alternative because the judges and those who would try suspects are sympathetic to terrorists, or because they are vulnerable to intimidation.

When Pakistan allowed Mir Amal Kanzi -- who murdered two CIA employees in Virginia in 1993, to be sent to the United States -- several cities in Pakistan saw demonstrations. That was 1993 when the opinion of the United States in Pakistan was not nearly as low as it is today. Imagine if Pakistan captured bin Laden tomorrow, would the Musharraf Government really want him tried in a Pakistani court or even to go through the extradition process? Pakistan would rather dodge this political bullet.

Many governments of the world are weak, but some are actively hostile. And here renditions become vital. In those cases, renditions are truly the only option for getting terrorists off the street.

Renditions can also produce considerable information, even when they do not lead to a trial and a lengthy imprisonment. Security forces can question suspects, examine the documents they have, and otherwise gather information that might be relevant to past or future attacks.

Renditions would be far less controversial if they only involved cases like Ramzi Yousef, the mastermind of the first World Trade Center bombing, who was brought home to the United States for trial. However, U.S. counterterrorism officials at times find it better to send suspects to the Middle East rather than bringing them to the United States. There has been a focus in the public discourse on the use of torture on this, which I believe is somewhat misguided, and I'd like to point out the other advantages for extraordinary renditions to the Middle East.

One obvious one is that in some cases the terrorists and the evidence against them can not meet the "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard of a U.S. court. Hearsay, rumor, and circumstantial evidence are often the only available intelligence and information can be maddeningly imprecise, incomplete, or at times even contradictory. Many allies of the United States in the Middle East, however, have a far lower standard of evidence, and are at times willing to bend some rules they have in response to a U.S. request.

Interrogations abroad also have their advantages. Jordan, for example, has contended with radical terrorism for decades. Its officials know a remarkable amount about the motivations, world view, and desires of jihadists. This is knowledge that countries like Sweden or Germany and even the United States are only slowly gaining. And even when evidence is plentiful, it must be available for use in the court of law without revealing sources or methods. To jeopardize a well-placed informant would actually, overall, hurt U.S. counterterrorism efforts, rather than help them.

Ironically and rather painfully, the operational value of renditions has grown as the U.S. detention of enemy combatants in Guantanamo has become legally, politically, and diplomatically problematic. Renditions, when successful, are a behind-the-scenes program. They do not require new legal systems and codes. But to be clear, this is a failure of U.S. policy. The United States has no established legal procedures for suspected terrorists who are not U.S. citizens beyond sending them through the U.S. court system where they are essentially treated as U.S. citizens.

I will add as an aside that I am somewhat skeptical of very recent European criticism about renditions that occurred from Europe in the immediate aftermath of 9/11. I would be very surprised, based on my knowledge of this program, if this did not occur without the knowledge of -- excuse me -- I believe this occurred with the knowledge of the European governments and, in particular, their intelligence agencies.

All this said, renditions are a flawed instrument even though I believe they are necessary. Renditions, of course, often violate the laws of the country in which they occur and at times they have involved truly horrible human rights violations. In particular, if individuals are sent to countries like Syria. And sending anyone to face these violations is a heavy moral burden, but this should weigh on policymakers extremely heavily because the United States will, at times, render the wrong people.

The lower evidentiary standards I mentioned, makes rendering the wrong person almost inevitable if this program is done enough times. This is simply a risk that is inherent to the program. Human rights abuses, however, arresting the wrong people, hurt Americas standing in the eyes of the world and, in particular, in the Muslim world, which is vital for U.S. counterterrorism today.

So, how do we square the circle? Unfortunately, there's no easy way to do so, no simple way. But I do believe that there are ways to reduce the level of abuses, and also, over time, to restore the credibility of this program to a degree that would satisfy most Americans. In general, Washington should return to the practice of sending suspects only to countries where they are wanted under that country's legal system in order to ensure that a legal procedure of some sort is eventually followed and that the individual will not simply disappear within the country's darkest prisons.

Reducing the likelihood of torture is particularly important. The United States should avoid the worst offenders, like Damascus. In addition, the United States must redouble efforts to make sure that the assurances it receives regarding torture are honored by the governments in question, as the human rights records of countries like Egypt are poor.

This increased care regarding the treatment of the detainees and greater attention to the legal dimensions of renditions is particularly important today, because the program as a whole is tainted by the lack of transparency and its association with torture. In the public mind today, torture is the purpose of renditions, a perception that is even stronger among the public of U.S. allies. If this program were in 2000, I believe that many of these problems would be easily surmountable. Unfortunately today, the barriers are much higher.

Essential for the legitimacy of this process is some degree of legal review and, in general, bureaucratic review outside the intelligence community. And here, I'd like to applaud the chairman's efforts to increase oversight and I will note that this effort has to balance efficiency and prudence. That we need a program that can remain as efficient as renditions are, while at the same time reducing the likelihood of risks. At the very least, there should be a senior official in the Department of Justice who has some degree of separation from the executive branch officials involved in the program itself. And that person should be consulted to vet the quality of the intelligence and, overall, to examine the rendition operation and procedure.

I'm going to conclude, Mr. Chairman, by noting that for controversial programs like renditions, we need a degree of public consensus. As Dr. Zelikow mentioned, early on after a crisis the United States often oscillates between unfortunate extremes. What we need is a degree of consensus that will allow our programs and procedures to last for, truly for decades. And with that we need to have hearings like this, even if they discuss a rather grim subject, and in so doing, build programs that will sustain different administrations and, over time, lead to the results we want.
