(1,919 posts)4. Why would the release info that they can use to their advantage?
Intelligence agencies loyalties are to themselves, their governments, and their countries. In that order. Any information they have they can withhold to curry favor. Releasing it risks retaliation. It's all about what's in their best interests, not ours.
