CIA Secretly Reclassifying Documents

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Tuesday February 21, 2006 @03:03AM from the can-i-get-my-file-yet dept.

SetupWeasel writes "The New York Times is reporting that the CIA is secretly reclassfying documents. How did we catch on? Historians have some of the documents. From the article: "eight [of the] reclassified documents had been previously published in the State Department's history series, 'Foreign Relations of the United States.'" Are our intelligence agencies rewriting history, stupidly paranoid, or both? We do know that they are ignoring a 2003 law that requires formal reclassifications. It puts that whole Google censorship thing in a whole new light. (Americans aren't allowed to see that video.)"

I do recall Clinton lying under oath, thereby perjuring himself. Let us not rewrite history, shall we.
