The ruling by a U.S. Magistrate Judge to withhold the draft cancer incidence study at Camp Lejeune underscores the importance of predecisional protection in government processes. This legal doctrine safeguards the internal deliberative process, ensuring that policy decisions are based on thoroughly vetted and finalized information. While the urgency for the plaintiffs and public interest in this case is palpable, especially given the grave health implications, the integrity of governmental decision-making must be maintained. Predecisional protection is crucial to prevent the release of premature or incomplete findings that could lead to misinformation or public confusion. It ensures that when critical information is finally released, it is definitive and trustworthy, having undergone rigorous scrutiny. This approach upholds public trust in government studies and decisions, which is paramount in cases with significant health and environmental impacts like that of Camp Lejeune.
The U.S. government will not be forced to turn over a draft of a study on cancer incidence at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune to attorneys representing people allegedly harmed by tainted water on the base, a federal judge in North Carolina said. U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert Jones Jr denied a motion to compel production of the study filed by the plaintiffs’ leadership team in the litigation, which includes more than 1,400 lawsuits and more than 130,000 administrative claims filed with the government. The study is in the peer review process and Jones said it falls under protections for 'predecisional' government materials. Releasing it while the conclusions are subject to change could confuse the public and undermine trust in other government studies, the judge said. Ed Bell, lead counsel for the plaintiffs, said in a statement his team is concerned the government is delaying the release of the study. 'We believe it is in the interest of those affected, including Marines who served their country and their families, to be able to have the important information in this study, and it is our hope it will be released without delay,' Bell said.

There is? WHO? There isn't? Then I respectfully ask for World politico-financial support to rethink the world together. Then NATO would not be needed anymore. Nor would any other EU defense. A World Army would be useful in case of hostile invasion by an alien species.

Happy Delaware Day! Since 1933, December 7 has been established as Delaware Day. Much the result of the efforts of a DE legislator, E. Paul Burkholder, and the Rotary Club of Georgetown, DE. Mr. Burkholder and the Georgetown Rotary Club secured more than 6,000 petitioners. As a result, a House Joint Resolution was passed and approved on November 29, 1933. The first Delaware Day celebration was held December 7, 1933, by proclamation of Governor C. Douglass Buck. Download a Detailed History: Establishment of Delaware Day [43k, PDF] "On November 26, 1787, Delaware elected thirty delegates to a state convention to consider ratification. On December 7, 1787, the delegates, meeting in Dover at Battell’s Tavern (also known as the Golden Fleece Tavern) unanimously made Delaware the first state to ratify the United States Constitution. Delaware’s willingness to seize the initiative was very important. As a contemporary French observer living in New York City wrote, “Delaware has the advantage of having given the first signal of a revolution in the general government of the United States, and its example can only produce a good effect in other state conventions.” On November 10, 1787, both branches of the Delaware Legislature adopted a bill which called for a State Convention to be held in Dover, Delaware, on December 3, 1787, for the purpose of considering the ratification of the new Federal Constitution. This piece of legislation provided for the election of ten persons to be selected in each county to attend this convention. The elections were held and thirty men were chosen to meet in Dover and decide the action Delaware would take on this important matter. History tells us that all the elections were orderly with one exception—the one held in Sussex County. Delaware was such a small state in 1787, and many were afraid that the much larger states surrounding Delaware would take advantage of her. Others believed that the only way to survive as a small state would be to join in a union with the larger states. Fortunately, our leaders of Delaware were intelligent men and made the wise decision to ratify the Constitution as soon as possible. Delaware—the “State That Started a Nation”—honors its forefathers on December 7 of every year for their wise decision. This decision gave Delaware its proud heritage which will be upheld as the citizens of Delaware continue to lead the Nation." ttps://delawareday.delaware.gov/
