Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has provided new testimony affirming the White House was actively involved in talks over the CIA’s use of torture in the interrogation of prisoners. Signed testimony from Rice and her top legal adviser says administration officials discussed the program over a two-year period beginning in early 2002. In a letter to the Senate Armed Services Committee, the legal adviser, John Bellinger, said he expressed concern the proposed interrogation techniques complied with international law.
