National Archives reverses declassification and withholds JFK assassination records

Today the National Archives has reversed a 2010 commitment for declassification and decided instead to withhold records related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Attached is a press release from the Assassination Archives and Research Center and a copy of the letter from Gary Stern, General Counsel of the National Archives announcing this decision. There is contact information on the press release for further information.

Anyone, Everyone should ask the obvious question - WHY?! - and the only conclusion one can come to is the one most of us here [minus the few self-blind or agents Sunnstein]have reached long ago - that to release the documents would give away the Big Lie we have been living under since 11/22/63 [which gives away the Big Lie from before and after - that America lives a Big Lie; is a Big Lie - a deception basically]. No other reason can logically be concluded. Period. They should have been released immediately after the event - but there has never ever been an investigation nor any disclosure - only cover-up and it continues - as should be clear to all who can see the Big Lies every day - about the past, the present and America's future. As one who loves my country, but is revolted by those who pretend to lead it [they actually only own it - or are owed by those who own it - and run it as their banana republic], I say we are long overdue for a Re-evolution [or we shall soon perish as a free Nation - in fact we have already, IMHO - it now being a Police State, National Security State, Propaganda State, Hate State, War State, Undemocratic State, Oligarchic State, Repressive State, Death State, et al. Perhaps worst of all, is that such a delay or lack of 'sunshine' doesn't even make most Sheeple in America lift their heads up from grazing on their burgers.

Thanks Adele for this sad, but not at all surprising, news....or would that be 'newspeak'? doublespeak?

Sooooo many documents and sooooo much secrecy for just some Lone Nut who was a nobody and just stacked books for a job.

Yeah but you and I don't have the correct security clearances to know which books he stacked, and where nor why. Or if the cardboard of those boxes was made of top-secret materials.

Just keep your thumb on the script of the Big Lie and they'll leave you alone - question or protest and you had best watch your rear!!

Again the keepers of dogma convict themselves.

The paradox was identified by Bertrand Russell in Sixteen Questions 6 September 1964:


In the name of national security, the Commission's hearings were held in secret, thereby continuing the policy which has marked the entire course of the case. This prompts my second question: If, as we are told, Oswald was the lone assassin, where is the issue of national security? Indeed, precisely the same question must be put here as was posed in France during the Dreyfus case: If the Government is so certain of its case, why has it conducted all its inquiries in the strictest secrecy?


"There was no conspiracy. There was one man firing. There were three bullets fired. Every loose end was pursued and the 26 volumes of ten million words are definitive and final."

Case closed.

Repressing history.

Repeating the lie.

No, you may not look behind the curtain.

There's nothing there anyway.

It's not about hiding smoking guns.

Refusing to release the files accomplishes the Sponsors' Prime Objective: Perpetuate Uncertainty.

The ONLY way for the Few to control the Many is to keep the Many in perpetual doubt and at each others' throats.

We should move on the government on the basis of Kennedy's alleged 1500 gram intact brain, which is impossible by the science involved in the brain splatter seen in Zapruder. There are irrefutable scientific physical forces or constants involved in the measureable size of the skull flap and splatter fog, according to known brain behavior during gunshot wounds, that automatically preclude the wrinkled, intact 1500 gram brain shown in Commission evidence and therefore proves conspiracy.

Charles

Yes, the people must be in perpetual doubt. O'Brien crushes Winston Smith when he puts the telling photo in the chute to the memory hole incinerator.

And yet, in the Secret Service destruction of records for 1963, the retaliation against the ONI officer attempting to assist ARRB, the CIA continued refusal to release 1,100 documents on George "No-Soup-For-You!" Joannides--not to mention the eons agencies forced Harold Weisberg to wait to fill his forty file cabinets--is sufficient demonstration that the Very Large Collider was humming in perfect tonal harmony with that and all such fugues.

Albert

Horne shows two brain exams, and the various deponents of the ARRB reiterated the significant damage and loss first described by Hill and the Parkland physicians. Again, it is Holmes to Watson in Garridebs: Touch him where we will, he is false.

Back to an allusion you masterfully suggest, Charles, it is Kafkaesque if ever darkly motivated, unspecified charge issued from a castle to a defendant regarding unindicted cockroaches.

And there's Helms flipping off Church. You can take the boy out of Nazi Germany but you can never take the Nazi Germany out of the boy.

National Archives Decides to Withhold Records Related
to the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy

Declines Request for 50th Anniversary Declassification Project

The National Archives today refused the request of a Washington non-profit public interest
group to declassify secret records related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in
time tor the 50th anniversary of that tragic event in 2013 (see attached 6/12/12 letter of Gary
Stern, General Counsel of the National Archives). The Archives reversed a commitment by
Assistant Archivist Michael Kurtz made at an Archives public forum in 2010 at which time he
stated the remaimng secret Kennedy assassination records would be released by the end of 2013
The Archives today says that Kurtz "misspoke" when he made that commitment to the public.
Kurtz's promise to process the secret JFK related documents fulfilled President Obama's
expressed desire that his administration be the most open in history. Today's reversal of release
of these records defeats President Obama's pledge that his be the most open administration in
history.

The National Archives states that it does not know the extent of secret files in its collection
rel ated to the Kennedy assassination, but that CIA is withholding 1,171 classified documents
related to the assassination. The Archives acknowledges that in 2006 the CIA speeded up
releases of documents with releases dates through 2010, but that CIA declines to do so for the
remaining documents due to "logistical requirements" even though, according to the National
Archives, only 1,171 CIA documents of undetmined volume remain to be declassified.
The request for release of the secret documents was made by the Assassination Archives and
Research Center (AARC), a Washington, D.C. non-profit public interest group in a letter signed
by several of its board members and attorneys Mark Zaid, Charles Sanders, and Prof G Robert
Blakey, who served as the chief counsel of the House Select Committee on Assassinations. The
letter made the point that the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy assassination in 2013 will result in
widespread discussion and news coverage, and that government documents related to the
assassination should be made public in order for a fully informed discussion.
