Spencer Ackerman in Wired: “Though heavily censored by the CIA, [former CIA operative Glenn Carle]
provides the first detailed description of a so-called ‘black site.’
At an isolated ‘discretely guarded, unremarkable’ facility in an
undisclosed foreign country (though one where the Soviets once
operated), hidden CIA interrogators work endless hours while heavy
metal blasts captives’ eardrums and disrupts their sleep schedules.
Afterward, the operatives drive to a fortified compound to munch Oreos
and drink somberly to Grand Funk Railroad at the ‘Jihadi Bar.’ Any
visitor to Guantanamo Bay’s Irish pub — O’Kellys, home of the fried
pickle — will recognize the surreality.”
