Im surprised this question was even asked! If the govt specially the military has a NEED TO KNOW policy we know the govt doesnt tell us the truth even when asked directly.

Remember WMD in Iraq...well it didnt have any!
Remember asking Bush, do we torture prisoners he said no and we know we did/do.
Remember the great economic crisis and the bank/corporate bail outs at the tax payer's expense, Did the govt tell is corporate behaviour/speculation nearly bankrupted the govt, NO!

Taking from a hollywood movie line...."You can't handle the truth!" Its not that we wont be able to always handle the true, its that we wouldnt have supported most govt policies had we been well informed and the govt cant let us know or the world know when they are up to no good!
