The Discord Leads story
(April 17, 2023) “Arrest won’t end military’s dilemma on secrets and
technology” is irrefutable evidence that we all face a trilemma, not a
dilemma. We all want freedom, security, and independence. But
we can only have two. James D. Ivory’s comment “We’re seeing massive
security breaches and potential global instability just because someone was
insecure about their popularity and wanted people to know they knew cool stuff
about the military” proves this fundamental reality.
Almost a year into
President Biden’s presidency CISA director Jen Easterly [the Cyber and
Infrastructure Security Agency is our nation’s newest federal agency
established by the Trump Administration in 2018] said “Everything is
connected, everything is interdependent, so everything is vulnerable.... And
that’s why this has to be a more than whole of government, a more than
whole of nation [effort]. It really has to be a global effort....”
The secrecy required by
so-called ‘independent’ governments and their ‘independent’ agencies intending
to ensure their own nation’s security is literally (virtually) impossible in
reality. Independence is an illusion. A delusional mental construct
also defined as “national sovereignty” that is at the root of every national
security threat we face, including asteroids. Freedom is all we
really have. Our nation’s founding fathers knew that virtue was
vital to sustaining our freedoms. And we as individuals and nations
are free to do what we want. But no one will be free of the
consequences.
