    One of the biggest mistakes Western democracies have made is the sharing of our valuable intellectual property and technology with developing autocracies in the naïve belief that it would make the world a better place. As a consequence, we are now in a battle for survival against those now powerful autocracies.
    A problem with democracy is the media's insistence on "the public's right to know" because unfortunately "the public" includes malevolent agents of those who wish to destroy us. I don't blame the US military for wanting to keep their secrets under wrap. The less the public knows the better.
