News writes that on July 28, 1995, the General Accounting
Office published a report on the Roswell Incident that said all
the Roswell records had been destroyed. Now it's been
discovered that the CIA has destroyed the budget records for
that period in Roswell also.
The records were demanded by New Mexico Congressman
Stuart Schiff, now deceased. The report found that "some of
the records concerning Roswell activities had been destroyed"
and that "there was no information available regarding when
or under what authority the records were destroyed."
In fact, all of the activity records for the Roswell Army Air
Force Base between 1947 and 1952 had been destroyed, in
direct violation of the law. No reason for the destruction of
the records was ever found.
Now, it turns out that the CIA's budget records for the same
period are missing. These budget reports would have revealed
details of budgetary allocations, including possible allocations
involving Roswell or other UFO-related activity. In response
to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit seeking
declassification of the intelligence budget totals from 1947
and 1948, the Central Intelligence Agency says that it cannot
find this information.
"We are unable to locate a document containing, or a series
of documents from which we may deduce, the aggregate U.S.
intelligence budget figure for Fiscal Year 1947," wrote Kathryn
I. Dyer, CIA Information and Privacy Coordinator, in a June 27
letter to the Federation of American Scientists.
Likewise, "We are unable to locate a document containing, or
a series of documents from which we may deduce, the
aggregate U.S. intelligence budget figure for Fiscal Year
1948."
There are a lot of religious fundamentalists in the FBI, CIA
and military. Is this why this information is being kept secret?
