But they've already been hinting at a massive form of cover up, complete with Ribbons using the stolen Veda super computer for information control. Just look at Saji- this whole situation happened because he naturally thought he could trust his own government. Clearly he thinks what happened in the first episode is the exception and not the norm, which implies an incredible amount of information control. We know alot about the dirtier things our troops have done overseas. If A-Law's acts by contrast are being hidden, the government is clearly some form of 'Big Brother' state. That kind of control exists to hide and further encourage extremist actions.
