The most "patriotic" angle of the Five Torches, the American and British wings of the Coalition (with additional allies in most of the second-party members, especially Bureau IX) are the most flagrant about the fact that the Second Inquisition is merely an excuse to carry out their real goals (though they would still never say it outright). Though most of their manpower and attention does still go to hunting down and destroying blankbodies, FIRSTLIGHT and its closest allies still take several opportunities to use their deniable assets, impenetrable veil of secrecy, mystical aid and complete lack of accountability to silence mundane threats to the dominance of NATO in general, but mostly America specifically.
