Certainly an interesting question. Deception obviously plays an important
part in warfare - plenty of examples throughout history - and it certainly
is an element of IW. I guess at the theoretical/high level there will always
be
some sort of deception in motion (concept of perception management),
but at practical level it may be necessary or more beneficial to have the
truth
(need to know basis, tactics, etc).
