American intelligence withheld information on Moscow terror attacks out of fear of exposing intelligence sources or methods (www.nytimes.com)

The adversarial relationship between Washington and Moscow prevented U.S. officials from sharing any information about the plot beyond what was necessary, out of fear Russian authorities might learn their intelligence sources or methods.

"We" "Our"

you are not the American government. They are your oppressors. They are not on your side.

There's a purposeful twist of language by you.

The way they used "we" simply implies they are a citizen of the US, not that they are an agent of the US gov security apparatus.

Seeing how you immediately blocked me after I called you out i'm going to go on a limb and say you weren't posting in good faith. EDIT: They didn't.

Ok I didn't get a notification for your reply so that's why I came to that conclusion, must have been a federation bug.
