"The very word "secrecy" is repugnant in a free and open society;
and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings."
The President and the Press
April 27, 1961
Don't ever take an Oathtaker at his word - he's not for you, he's sworn a higher loyalty to something else which you may not know and probably aren't a party to.
Lawyers and police swear an oath to the Constitution (which says a Negro is 3/5ths of a human being).
Doctors swear an oath to sell medicine rather than heel people or supply cures.
Spies swear allegiance to the spy organisation, and to each other, and their loyalty to their agency and to their fraternity supersedes national sovereignty, superpower affiliation and all criminal and civil law.
