The JFK Assassination was one
of the most significant of all the
incremental death blows to the
US and to the Constitution. It
was a coup d'état by the 1947
National Security State against
the Republic. So much about
the strange state of our current
cryptocracy has its roots in that
infamous event.
One small piece of legislation that
seeks to fight this coup is the 1992
JFK Records Act, which directs the
National Archives to release all
government records relating to
the assassination of John F. Kennedy
within 25 years, to be viewable by
the public at Building II in College
Park, Maryland. (That is, all that
are "safe" to be released, natch).
That anniversary is this Thursday,
October 26th and the Donald has
decided to uphold the Act, over the
protestations of many in the
Intelligence Community.
One of the most eagerly-awaited
documents researchers are hoping
to see is the never-before-released
transcript "Volume 5" of testimony
on Lee Harvey Oswald given by
James Angleton, the CIA's
legendary chief of counterintelligence
from 1954 to 1975. The CIA has
maintained that this document
doesn't exist, despite records
indicating they were partially
released to an archivist in the '70s.
By 1997, Volume 5 had "disappeared".
It will be interesting, among other
things to see if Volume 5 is among
the final set of documents to be
released tomorrow.
