Why Are Some Files On The Assassination Of John F. Kennedy Still Classified?

Bryan Bender, Politico: 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.

That same act requires that all the documents on the list be released by October 2017 unless the next president decides to keep them classified.

no no no!
there is no doubt as to the Lincoln assassination. None whatsoever.there is, however, lots of new info in books out recently that deal with the faked stuff in Zapruder film, done by experts in the field of optics. Then there is the CIA, which just this past week admitted it had materials it had not released. Then there is the newly publised bio on
Allen Dulles, who really ran the so called Warren Commission. I am not here suggesting any theories but merely pointing out that there is a wealth of new materials for those interest in
the subject. you can begin with this

I was in 5th grade when President Kennedy was assassinated. Being a Catholic in a parochial school, we took it pretty hard, like most. Even then I became a student of all legitimate writings on the assassination. The most interesting, comprehensive and fact filled writings on this travestythat I have come across, were done early on by a personal friend of President Kennedy, a prosecutor and campaign manager for his campaign from Massachusetts, Mr. mark Lane. His two works on this subject are Rush To Judgement and Plausible Denial, if you are interested in this topic, They are a must read. Mr. lane also was the only person to win a court trial related to the Assassination of President Kennedy. A jury found a CIA executive, a Mr. Hunt, guilty of taking part in the planning and execution of this sad event. Very interesting stuff, not generally known. That happen in about 1988. On the same topic different, different President, George Herbert Walker Bush was a CIA employee during that era, previously operating Zapata Oil, a front for them in the Caribbean. Allowing drugs, money, arms, and assets to surreptitiously transit those waters, oil rig to oil rig. During the Assassination period, the future POTUS 41, was brought by the CIA and FBI to jointly interview Oswald the night before his death in Dallas. There is a Justice Dept. Document, copy printed in a book on the topic circa about 1988. It was an after action report on the interview, submitted to Hoover mentioning the names of the CIA and FBI interviewers. Lots of accurate information out there, for the hardy researcher. But 10 times more bullshjt. Don't believe most of it.
