You are fundamentally mistaken. You depend on the very people whom you are claiming are pretty universally untrustworthy to provide you with the accounts of meetings and other documentation, all of which is easy as pie to fabricate. This includes accounting for money, incidentally. Do you really think that the Beast you are positing is ever going to give you a straight account of where the money is and how it is spent? Ask the Mafia how many ways there are to skim and launder money. It takes teams of detectives, with crime scene specialists, forensic pathologists, other forensic lab personnel, and uniformed officers to help control the scene and take initial statements, to solve one murder, and they are not all solved. How do you think that a bunch of citizens, no matter how zealous, is going to crack the kind of black ops stuff you are postiting? The government is too vast, there are too few interested citizens, and most of them are untrained and uncoordinated. If we cannot rely on Congressional oversight, internal review, the Justice Department, and the Fourth Estate, because the situation is so awful, then I cannot see any hope, personally.......

Speaking of the light of day, some cockroaches are actually attracted "to" the light. Very active and hard to get rid of.

Smokey Brown Cockroach

(1" to 1-1/4") The smokey brown roach is uniform in color, typically brownish black and very shiny. They are good flyers and are attracted to lights at
night
. Found in warm, dark, moist areas such as treeholes, ivies, mulch, woodpiles and soffits/eaves of attics with moisture problems,
they are very mobile. The smokey brown roach has the reputation of being the most difficult to control because it is so active and has
many habitat preferences. Very thorough methods and persistence are required for effective control.
