Kill the messenger quick!
I think Sweden being a secret member of NATO is, indeed a bigger story than has been realized yet.
Not just because of the Palme murder, but because the Swedish grovelment has kept this hidden from their citizens - I imagine because the Swedes strongly believe in the dignity of their neutrality. They have been sold out.
But there maybe others nations that are also secret members of NATO. Switzerland perhaps? What about Austria? Is the Vatican City a secret non-military, intelligence gathering member maybe?
Are there other secret categories of membership we know nothing about yet?
Here are the grades of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry.
The first 3 degrees are open and acknowledged.
The higher degree are secret.

Analogously, I would speculate that the acknowledged military members of NATO represent the first three, open, degrees.
The higher, secret, grades represent more than just nation states. They are positions/security clearance levels granting knowledge of particular covert NATO aims.
These covert NATO aims would then be fulfilled through operations.
In principle, at a particular grade, the individual would have knowledge of some of that which is BELOW. But knowledge of that which is ABOVE would be absent.
Only the highest grades/ranks would see the entire picture.
An example of secret NATO aims would be the Strategy of Tension of Gladio. Pursuing the Scottish Rite analogy, specific false flag attacks would be perpetrated by a group operating under the control and patronage of a certain grade/rank.
So, Gladio operations in different countries would inevitably be controlled by planners of different ranks or levels. The true status of these atrocities not as genuine terrorist attacks, but as Gladio false flag attacks, would be known only by the grades/ranks above.
Considering groups who may be high level covert members of NATO, metaphorically at the 30° or above level, then my prime nomination would be SMOM.
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta.
A search on DPF of SMOM may be an, ahem, illuminating experience.
For those with Eyes Wide Open....
Metaphorically, speculatively and symbolically speaking....
