With all the heavily inked redactions that get released, the documents themselves should be called black sites. It's quite obvious how absurd the documents themselves are, and how they are written AFTER the decision and the actual torture occurs, to completely fit the narrative and justify any means possible undertaken during the process, with the blessing of those at the very top. As Lyndsay says, the public only get to hear about the tip of the iceberg. Just enough to keep the tension and justification for the war on terror to continue unabated for those in the prime positions within the Intelligence communities.
