The JFK Document Dump Could Be a Fiasco

As it stands now, the document release this month will be a logistical nightmare, with the public suddenly flooded with a huge online library of documents—tens of thousands in total—that will be, at first, mostly incomprehensible even to experienced students of the assassination. The National Archives, abandoning its plans to release the documents in batches over the course of several months, said this week that it will instead release everything at once – all on the same day – sometime between now and the deadline on Oct. 26.

...

Many are known to involve a mysterious chapter in the history of the assassination – a six-day trip that JFK assassin Lee Harvey Oswald paid to Mexico City several weeks before the president’s murder, in which Oswald met with Cuban and Soviet spies and came under intensive surveillance by the CIA’s Mexico City station. Previously released FBI documents suggest that Oswald spoke openly in Mexico about his intention to kill Kennedy.

...

Under the 1992 law, millions of pages of other documents about the assassination were made public in the 1990s, and they did reshape the thinking of many historians about JFK’s murder. Many of those documents revealed how much information had been withheld by the CIA and the FBI over the years that demonstrated how those agencies had bungled intelligence in 1963 that, if acted on, might have prevented the assassination.

This week, the National Archives cited “processing” delays to explain why it had abandoned its original plan this year to release the documents in an orderly fashion, in batches, over the course of the summer and early fall. Instead, it said, everything will be released at once at some point this month – possibly on the deadline day, Oct. 26.

Processing delays? Right. See you in twenty-five years.

Oswald was a CIA asset, so saying he was under CIA surveillance is disingenuous at best.

More likely a KGB asset.

There will be plenty of researchers to go over these documents.

BTW, I heard a former staffer for House of Representatives Select Committee on Assassinations say in an interview that there is nothing in these docs that point to a conspiracy. And he believed that there was a conspiracy. He thought the Mafia killed JFK.

He killed Kennedy.

To get to Jackie.

He was all over those anti-Castro encampments in Southern Florida in the years prior to the assassination. Those men would’ve killed him at the drop of a hat if a whiff of KGB had come from him.

You do realize that he never made a confession to the Dallas PD or FBI, right? Furthermore, every time he was in public he denied it and stated he was a patsy.

Hardly the talk of a commie revolutionary.

Kennedy went to bed with two or three women every day, including Marilyn Monroe and the girlfriend of one of the Mafioso chieftains (I forget the names). Also lots of very high up women, which would have offended a lot of very important people. He was totally out of control.

He gave up Maria Callas' voice for for the sainted Jackie's?

Why?

He thought the Mafia killed JFK.

Jack Anderson had a Kennedy assassination book. Heard him on Art Bell, probably a year before Anderson died.

FWIW, according to Anderson, Castro was tired of the Brothers Kennedy trying to kill him, so he baited the mob with a "promise" of letting them have back all the casinos and such in Cuba if the mob would take care of the Castro's "problem".

Why would it be a “fiasco?” The author never really fleshes that out, except to hint that the rubes might be duped by conspiracy theories.

Remember hearing about this upcoming date back on Unsolved Mysteries back like in 89, thinking about we would finally find out the truth.

Ha! Fat chance!

Near as I can tell, the author wants the information to be massaged by the “experts” before the public gets ahold of it.

“Kennedy went to bed with two or three women every day”

Well, that explains the back problems....
