Ummm......

Stalin and Mao had a problem with "The public's right to know", too.

Whatever war we are in, everybody suffers when secrecy is abused. And because the abuse is secret, nobody knows that abuse has occured. Kind of a vicious cycle, Nes' Pah?

In this countr, the accused still has rights.

And the military is still entitled to secrets.

My husband is former counterintel and he says that there are a lot of things that the country as a whole just are better off not knowing.
