Former CIA official on JFK secrecy: ‘You do great harm to the public record’

 After a speech on CSPAN about the impact of Edward Snowden’s revelations by William Nolte, a former CIA counterintelligence official, Karl Golovian asked him about the 1,100 JFK records that the CIA is still keeping secret until October 2017.

Nolte, a critic of Oliver Stone, responded that it sounded like a classic case of over-classification and a disservice to the public, but….

Watch a clip of Nolte’s comments here.

Nolte said:

#HowtoSolveJFKin2014: If the courts don’t work….

I agree with Karl Golovin about the need for a public vigil in the case of the suppressed CIA files on JFK. Public protest is not my thing but if the courts fail then we may not have a choice. So I endorse Golovin’s call for a meeting and the Kennedy Center is as good a place at any. I’ll be there.

(Full disclosure: Golovin has some opinions about the Sept. 11 attacks that I disagree with.)

 

 

#HowtoSolveJFKin2014: Go to the Kennedy Center

Karl Golovin’s proposal: Meet on July 4th, 2014, for what he calls a “Constitutional Assembly for CIA/JFK Files Release” in Washington, DC.

He proposes the JFK Center for the Performing Arts as the gathering spot, as seen here and here,

 

Suggestions already heard: Do not protest in the presence of President Obama. It’s not appropriate.
Questions to be resolved:  Would CIA Headquarters or National Archives be more appropriate site for an assembly on JFK records? Why not all three?

#HowtoSolveJFKin 2014: stage a ‘civil obedience’ vigil for full disclosure

At the Kennedy Center

The video of Karl Golovin’s one-man JFK full disclosure protest at the Kennedy Center got a burst of Reddit love (vote it up here!), as well as critical approval from many readers.

Golovin is proposing a mass assembly at the Kennedy Center on July 4, 2014, to call for release of all of the CIA’s secret JFK files. (See JFKvigil.net for more information.)

In the reader reaction, I see possibilities for consensus on how to act in service of decisively clarifying the JFK story in 2014.

At the Kennedy Center: ‘You turn that camera on, you’re going to get locked up’

On December 8, Karl Golovin crashed the party for the Kennedy Center awards with a full JFK disclosure message. For his trouble, he and his cameraman were threatened with arrest.

David Gregory of NBC’s Meet the Press makes a cameo appearance.

Golovin wants to use civil disobedience to pressure the U.S. government to release still secret JFK assassination files before their scheduled October 2017 release.
