Justice Department Censors Nazi-Hunting History

I was interested in the Freedom of Information act and came across this web site called The National Security Arcive that is a link to formerly classified information. Without even getting into the details of my search, I was troubled but not surprised by Obama and Eric Holder's heavy hand (foot?) in releasing information.

'Washington, D.C., November 13, 2010 - The Department of Justice censored dozens of pages of a candid history of Nazi-hunting (and Nazi-protecting) by the U.S. government to such a self-defeating extent that former officials leaked the entire document to the New York Times this week, instead of fulfilling the Freedom of Information request and lawsuit filed by the National Security Archive and its counsel David Sobel.

"Now that we can compare the redacted document with the complete text of the original report, it is clear that the Justice Department is withholding information without legal justification," said David Sobel. "For an administration -- and an Attorney General -- supposedly committed to an 'unprecedented' level of transparency, this case provides a troubling example of how far the reality is from the rhetoric."'
