States do have secrets. And when those secrets are grave and destructive, their citizens have a right to know about them.



This is obviously false. All states have intelligence agencies military secretes ect.


Of course they do. And where states' intelligence agencies or militaries overstep their mandates their citizens should know and act accordingly/


We also say children have a right to mot be abused yet there are many child abusers....


So you're saying the public not knowing the names of informants in Afghanistan is the same as child abuse?
