Leaked Documents Expose US-NATO Ukraine War Plans

The New York Times has reported “a significant breach of American intelligence in the effort to aid Ukraine” through the leak of classified documents which have been shared on social media. It correspondents cited “senior Biden administration officials” who apparently tipped the outlet off to the story. Documents circulating on Telegram which closely resemble those referred to by the Times are reproduced at the end of this article. The Times writes, “Military analysts said the documents appear to have been modified in certain parts from their original format, overstating American estimates of Ukrainian war dead and understating estimates of Russian troops killed.

Tweets, Leaks, Classified Information, And The Right To Know

By William Boardman for Reader Supported News - This bit of political circus hooha was briefly all over the news early in the week, with almost no news outlet getting it right: that the issue of “classified information” and “leaks” is largely a meaningless smokescreen designed to protect the power of government secrecy against the public’s right to know the truth. Logically, this sequence of events should lead to an Attorney General investigation of Fox and President Trump for disclosing classified information, or at least an investigation of Fox News to learn the identities of its anonymous officials with access to intelligence data (perhaps in the White House). This is a perfect time for a test case that demonstrates real integrity. Does anyone expect anything like that to happen? The underlying story from Fox News is relatively simple in substance, fundamentally illogical, and more important for its attitude than its presumed facts: Despite the United States’ insistence that North Korea halt its missile tests, U.S. spy agencies detected the rogue communist regime loading two anti-ship cruise missiles on a patrol boat on the country’s east coast just days ago. It’s the first time these missiles have been deployed on this type of platform since 2014...

Can The People Force The Release Of The JFK Files?

By Jefferson Morley for Amazon Publishing - The CIA’s last assassination-related files might help us answer that question.

As we have seen, these are the files of senior officers implicated in the JFK assassination story. My hunch is that this trove of long-secret intelligence files — if declassified in its entirety — will support the notion that the president was ambushed by enemies within his own government.

US Seeks To Keep Gitmo Force Feeding Tapes Secret

By Cora Currier for The Intercept - The government has refused to meet the deadline for the release of videotapes that show a detainee at Guantánamo being force-fed while on hunger strike. A federal judge had given the government until Friday, January 22, to release around 11 hours of footage in which a Syrian detainee, Abu Wa’el Dhiab, is forcibly removed from his cell, restrained, and force-fed. Dhiab’s lawyers have called the footage “extremely disturbing.”
