DG is filled with hipocrites. DG is filled with the same "cold war mentality" that has been around for centuries. We feel that we have the moral "high ground" because we are "right" and/or "good." 

That's a dangerous philosophical ground to tread upon, but still we feel we have the justification. Not too many governments, religions or whatever have an oppression free background, but when we are members of them, we tend to gloss those points over. The Roman Catholic Church has as bloodstained hands as anybody, yet talk to a RC (I know, I'm one), and things like inquisitons, crusades, witchhunts and the likes are glossed over in view of that being past history and we should focus on what 'good" the church has done. Many Americans are "America, right or wrong," regardless of whatever scandal or atrocity has crossed our headlines. Many more want to put that behind us and get down to the present (as if many times they aren't connected). The Cold Warriors of the military and intelligence systems who carried out some rather shady deals, did it because they believed they were operating in America's best interests. We took a renegade Marine colonel operating in a secret cabal that was caught and elevated him to an almost hero status because he was one of our boys and had America's best interests at heart. 

DG is no different, their view is just somewhat larger. We regularly talk about the best ways to circumvent the constitution. We oppress peoples and information. We killed scores at Waco on flimsy pretenses of the Mythos and are view is that it is a successful hybrid op.

DG operates as both its own sort of 'cult' and is carrying out an ongoing conspiracy. Our excuse for acting in many ways like our very enemies? We are the "good" guys. We know whats best for the world. We have to fight fire with fire. Our own "evil" actions are perfectly justified by our consciences because we know we're "right."
