英国右翼不知道左翼在做什么，这是因为英国政府最高层的一群精选人员竭尽全力确保这一点。为此，他们创建了一个迷宫般的信息防火墙——以一种不那么仁慈的评估方式进行欺骗——以确保向英国的战时盟友、甚至英国许多最高级的外交官和军事指挥官隐瞒重要的知识。
(To the degree that the British right hand didn't know what the left was doing, it was because a select group of men at the highest reaches of its government went to great lengths to ensure it. To that end, they created a labyrinth of information firewalls-deceptions, in a less charitable assessment-to make sure that crucial knowledge was withheld from Britain's wartime allies and even from many of her own seniormost diplomats and military commanders.)
