What the government is still hiding about the JFK assassination

The National Archives, for the first time ever, released a list of documents related to the assassination that are still shielded from public view.

More than five decades after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, thousands of government files detailing the activities and testimony of shadowy spies, long-deceased witnesses and others with possible knowledge of the events remain shielded from public view.

The government gave a first-ever peek at what's still out there Thursday, as the National Archives released a list of the 3,063 documents that have been "fully withheld" since JFK's murder in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963.

The documents listed - released in response to a Freedom of Information Act request from POLITICO, other news organizations and researchers - were collected by the Assassination Records Review Board, an independent panel created by the 1992 JFK Records Act.

Who can vouch for HER? THAT is the real question.

Re>I agree that Oswald was the assassin, but who else may or may not be involved is still unanswered.

Interesting most (well a lot anyway) of the known mafia hit men were all in Dallas for this day. FBI knew they were. Nothing about this is what we were told except for the magic bullet that wasn't so magic when studied.

Those were the days when most of the anti-american communists in the US were not popular celebrities.

Not to mention Jack Ruby shooting Oswald.

What are the chances of that?

I’ve waited over 50 years to see this stuff. It’s time to release it! Keeping it still secret — what difference does it make? Unless it implicated someone and it alters history and effects the legacies of politicians who kept it hidden.

I was in Geometry class in Dallas that day (Thomas Jefferson High).

1 fact and 1 rumor from that time:

1. Fact - The Kennedy’s and the Johnson’s were not “friends” - JFK and LBJ were not close...that is a fact.

2. Rumor: Several weeks prior to the killing of JFK, it was rumored that he was going to drop Johnson from the ticket in the upcoming election. True or not...who knows...but, it was being reported in the Dallas papers.

Yeah, yeah, that's what they all say, buddy. Into the lineup...

“LOL, Oswald is the only one we know for certain DIDN’T do it. The entire rest of the world, including YOU, are still suspects.”

Nope. We know Oswald did it. He had the training. He had the time and it would have been easily possible for him to have made the shots. People that believe otherwise are ignoring the forensic evident in an attempt to deify a leftist pig.

Look at the actual evidence not the conspiracy idiots.

I don’t know who actually pulled the trigger, but I do know Bigfoot was on the grassy knoll.

Look at how the Democrats go after any Republican they think has caused a Democrat politician to get tossed out.

Does anybody think the Democrats would let the Russians kill a Democrat President and not go all out for revenge?

It wasn’t the Russians.

Kennedy was becoming a liability to the Democrat Party.

Though he denies it, there are photos that show that George H.W. Bush was in Dallas that day.

I doubt we will never, ever know exactly what happened that day.

We already do. Unfortunately facts don't sell books while conspiracies do and are so much fun............

LOL, I am not a "conspiracy idiot attempting to deify a leftist pig!"

And your preferred book is not compelling, for numerous reasons.
