Are top Government Officials War Criminals?
Interview with Michael Ratner

What the Media Doesn't Tell You host, Larry Velvel, and Michael Ratner, head of the Center for Constitutional Rights in New York, discuss issues surrounding the culpability of attorneys who render opinions that allow government officials to conduct apparently illegal acts.  They discuss several instances when the current administration has been advised by its own lawyers that such things as torture may not be always illegal or war crimes.
