How can faceless bureaucrats in an intelligence agency deny brave soldiers a chance to tell the truth?

How can faceless bureaucrats in an intelligence agency deny

Summary

This quote emphasizes the power dynamics within intelligence agencies where faceless bureaucrats hold the authority to suppress the voices of courageous soldiers. It suggests that these bureaucrats, who may not have direct involvement in combat situations, wield control over the narrative and can prevent soldiers from speaking their truths. This highlights the potential for injustices and manipulation, as those on the front lines, who possess valuable insights and experiences, are silenced or ignored by those in positions of authority wielding bureaucratic power.

A permanent base on Mars would have a number of advantages beyond being a bonanza for planetary science and geology. If, as some evidence suggests, exotic micro-organisms have arisen independently of terrestrial life, studying them could revolutionise biology, medicine and biotechnology.
