>Secrecy has always been a part of state diplomacy.
And this is why the world is perpetually at war. Those who have the power to stop the war-mongers (The People) don't have any idea what is really going on - thus diplomacy has been usurped from most democracies around the world, and is thus: broken.

It is secrets that keep the one true power - the American people - from doing something, effective, about the out of control military-industrial complex.
