wouldn't one be better served by a statement that GR makes a point of
mentioning previously unmentionable facts that tend to "undercut a complete
trust" in those organizations, rather than 'exhibit a complete distrust'?

that reality differs from the happy horsecrap of the jingoistic propaganda
churned out by ever so many warmongers and their ilk
