Please. If we had anything close to Omerta within our intel and military services this story wouldn't even be known. I thinks it is a good and effective tactic. If they were normal men rather than insance barbarians, such a tactic wouldn't even work. The lack of discipline and secrecy in our Nat'l Security apparatus is the real threat.
