Why? They need to operate in strict confidence because the U.S. government doesn't want to public to know just how many billions of dollars or fighter jets we're giving to Israel? Secret negotiations don't do anything. Obviously they didn't do anything to stop the attacks on 9/11.

In a perfect world, diplomats would be required to provide meeting minutes to the public on what was said after every meeting.

Or you can just continue on living in ignorance like the rest of this country and not worry about it.
