Who Controls the Past

Anyone who has read Orwell's 1984 should understand the real implications behind the CIA seizure and re-classification of some of late Sen. Henry Jackson's papers that were housed at the University of Washington.

"Who controls the past, controls the future. Who controls the present, controls the past."

It's very interesting that the CIA seized papers had been at the University for over 20 years. The action of the CIA itself is interesting but the implications and reasoning behind the action is what really counts. As for the reasoning, I have not seen comment on that. As for the implications... ...the implications are frightening.
