Respect your enemies. Keep their leaders close while relentlessly pursuing meaningful charges against them,
Respect communities. They are your first line of defense. They are your eyes and ears.
Respect immigrants. The world's people judge nations by how they treat their immigrants.
Respect the public. Surveillance only works when you have a target. Everything else is noise.
Respect culture and diversity.
