Our government is not perfect, but for the most part, works for our best interests. Quite often, the complaining and allegations of conspiracy theories is over the top, but it's this freedom to question things that helps preserve the great opportunity we have to live in this country.
This isn't questioning the nefarious plots, or anything of that regard.
It has to do with when you accept something as truth and when you don't.
Why is the report that the military bombed a group who was planning on attacking the USA with toothpaste bombs something we should trust?

Either you believe them on that or you don't. When it comes to the military and national security, not everything is going to be divulged. Everything we say is heard by our enemies. I'm sure that we sometimes say things with the intent on misdirecting those who are trying to harm us. But I honestly believe that the Pentagon, military, CIA, etc work to protect our interests.
