National Archives releases first batch of 2017 JFK documents

[Peter Lemkin]

SO MANY documents are still missing! Both not disclosed on the 26th as 'promised' and those never listed as 'promised' for the 26th. See the good list Bill Kelly made and Bill Simpich and others added to in post above #91. But even that is not complete. The White House Communications Logs are missing as are SO MANY other important files we know must have once existed and likely still do even when they say they were routinely destroyed. And IF they were destroyed, legal action should be brought against those who destroyed them - and if they are dead against the agencies they were employed by, so that something like that never happens again. While the JFK Assassination was the low point for the USA since the Civil War, IMO, since then similar actions have been repeated MANY times. Had the conspirators not been able to get away with Dallas RF K, MLK, Malcolm-X, and many others too numerous to mention would not have been assassinated, COINTELPRO and CHAOS would not have been run, many wars [most in fact] would not have happened or be happening now, 911 and the (un)Patriot Act never would have happened, the War OF Terror never would have been proposed as the new Cold War substitute for endless war, and those who profit from war and hate and greed would not be so ascendant in the USA. IMO, it all can be traced back to the mind set that allowed those in the shadows to murder the President and our Democracy along with him. Truth and seeking the Truth were thrown out the window along with any sense of morality - and look what we got and have now. They KNOW that even today were the People of the USA to know, as a few of us do who study this matter and Deep Politics, who actually did it and covered it up - there would be a Revolution and no more FBI, CIA, NSA, ONI, DHS, over-powerful Military and militarized Police, COG in place to this very day, et al.....and THAT is why they will NOT and CAN NOT release the documents they refuse to release! It would be suicidal for 'them' and I hope someday it is. This system can not be reformed - only replaced - and that can only be done bottom-up; and can be done peacefully - while they will use the Police and all their secret fire power and propaganda/black arts to see that such a peaceful revolution of American Polity never happens - as that IS THEIR JOB [as they see it and as their masters command of them]. I predicted that the better documents would NOT be released and am not surprised. They simply can not from their point of view - they have killed a President, directly about 4 million and indirectly about 70 million people since WW2 to protect their corrupt ideals and power - and they would not shrink from killing of a lot of the US [and other Nations'] Population, IMO, to keep their dirty little secrets and their goals/power today. Sadly, they remain in power - and their power is GROWING fast because they fool most in the USA who don't want to consider just how evil and corrupt the system is and has always been; that they have been systematically lied to and deceived with a torrent of untruths constructed to be untruths - but presented as the Truth 1984-style. Anyone who thinks we can 'vote' our way out of this with the Democrats or some other method, I think is naive and has not really learned the lessons of our history - which are as sad and foreboding as was Rome in the early years of the Common Era just before its collapse. I also do not think that the system will 'right' itself by ridding itself of Trump - he is only a symptom of this sick system, not the real nexus of the 'problem'. Look at the Congress [with a few exceptions]; look at the Supreme Court; look at the 'intelligence agencies'; look at the Military; look at the Police and DHS, TSA and the Fusion Centers; look at how many wars we are fighting for nothing and how there has not been one day without war since WW2 'ended' [ha!]...and the pace increased after Dallas to this very day; look at the War against the poor and non-white; look at the corruption; look at how all the money and power has gone from the many to the few...and I could go on and on...this is not by chance - this is BY DESIGN, and part of that design was to get rid of JFK and all others who stood in the way of this 'PLAN'. Some in the: CIA, FBI, NSA, parts of the Military, parts of the official Government, the SS, the Mafia, the Far Right, and the neo-fascists and Ultra-Rich had JFK [and many many others] killed so they could follow their 'PLAN'...and we are all to be made surfs if they are not stopped and they have zero intention to EVER release documents that would convince the average person - not just the experts who will read arcane documents and piece the puzzle pieces together - that they participated in ILLEGAL, IMMORAL and TREASONOUS acts - not once, but on an almost daily and ongoing basis.

...and to any who think I am throwing up my hands with my 'analysis' and rant above, I am not. I think it is, however, going to take an ALL OUT fight [a peaceful revolution] and nothing less. Yes, it is fine to also write your Congresspersons, write OP ED pieces, and write books and articles, blog and forum posts, but it will take more, IMO - it will take spreading of this awareness of the fact we are now at the edge of the precipice in political and environmental terms and we as a civilization must uno-mundo dismantle the power structures of control, manipulation, lies, top-down authority, war, hate, division, anti-democracy, racism, blaming the other, greed, concentration of money and power in the hands of a few - all over the World. We will need to be out in the streets and opposing what 'they want and they do' every step of the way. IMO, anything short of that will end with the end of human civilization in a very ugly fashion in the not too distant future. I think this is realism, not pessimism. Information that brings awareness is the first step, but it can not be the only step. 'Power never conceded anything without demand, it never did and it never will' - Frederick Douglass. So, we the People of the World will have to demand the World we want and be ready to face the powers that be and don't want the World we want with our bodies and buying power [and votes] using peaceful and passive resistance and other means of non-cooperation with their 'machine'.

Our main weapon is information, and the 'opposition' tries to deny us information [thus the non-release of evidence of their planning, involvement, and cover-up of the JFK high-noon slaughter and coup d'etat]....but one can easily site much other information denied or false information provided along with propaganda and media-propaganda blitzes [minus the few (but growing) alternative media now available online and elsewhere] - 911 and the War on [of] Terror are but two good examples. If we can convince a sufficient number of fellow US Citizen-serfs, and peoples of other nations, the way they have been tricked, lied to, bamboozled, cheated of money and democracy, denied the Truth, led to believe they live in a democracy when it is really an autocratic if not neo-fascist Oligarchy - then we can think up peaceful actions to stop them in their tracks. Personally, I think nothing less than massive strikes, work-stoppages, consumer boycotts of all non-essential items, buying from small entities not the big ones, forming local networks to inform and coordinate actions, etc. will we get anywhere. The Police State is all but complete [it is already complete as far as the poor and non-white populations of the US are concerned. But they have already long ago started the impoverishment and disempowerment of all the others but the small ruling elites with all the money and power [most of the power hidden to most of the population]. We still have the internet, but they are trying to control that [if you have missed that attempt at control, you do so at your own peril]. Fema through DNS had detention camps and militarized police getting information [spying on] allowed [on paper] action and thought. They hope soon to outlaw [or have partially already] all Black activists, all those who challenge the financial status quo and the oligarchical elite, all those who would oppose their machine, those who are anti-war, those who are not White, those who are poor, those who are not Christian, those who are pro-environment, those who oppose profit over people, those who really believe in democracy and not sham democracy, and those who can see through their lies and propaganda - we are on their target and eventually round-up lists. Sorry for the unpleasant wake up call - but the hour is THAT late, IMO. I have witnessed the rise of the new fascism and neo-feudalism all of my life and have opposed it, along with my family, throughout. I personally know what challenging the system can do to destroy one's life or make it difficult in the extreme - but do we really have any other choice. Yes, fight for the JFK documents and other [like 911 et al.] through the 'system', but NOT ONLY through the system - the system is so rigged and corrupt and anti-democratic that is a fool's game to rely on it only. When a sizable portion of the People DEMAND change - and are willing to put their relative financial comfort and safety on the line , it can happen - in fact that is the only way any progress has ever been made at ANY TIME in history...it has never come from the top-down, but only by pressure and demand from the bottom-up. I wish there were an easier way - but that 'easier way' is a propaganda ploy by the very oppressors we face...there is no there there....they now control who gets nominated, who runs, who wins and how the votes get counted - then they bribe and threaten those who 'win'. I do not count on the system, as a whole, anymore - some state and local parts of it are still semi-functional, but even those are being infiltrated and weakened. The Federal level has been bored out and only the stage props remain [fooling many]. Read a Peoples History of the United States by Zinn and see what had to be done and sacrificed to get what few crumbs we had gotten, but which mostly have now been taken away since Dallas. [and were the reason for Dallas and Vietnam and the other Wars and 911 and the current Police State, DHS, unPatriot Act, COG, NORTHCOM, and the intelligence agencies spying on all of us and doing black ops against us and against democracy. Wake up!...before it is too late [which will be soon....in my estimation not more than the next 10-20 year maximum, and perhaps less].
