First, from the Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry website, there are a couple of these messages:

There is no picture here because lawyers representing John Kerry's interest threatened our Internet server with legal action unless the picture was removed.

Fortunately, in each case, there's a link to another server that has the offending photos. What are the photos that Kerry's lawyers are trying to hide? Well, the first link goes to a set of antiwar demonstrations that Kerry participated in (or led). The second link shows the cover of Kerry's 1971 book, "The New Soldier".

And then there's this:

FBI documents about FBI surveillance of John Kerry in the early 1970s have been stolen, according to their owner, a historian who lives near San Francisco, California.

Gerald Nicosia, who spent more than a decade collecting the information, said three of 14 boxes of documents plus a number of loose folders containing hundreds of pages were stolen from his home Thursday afternoon.

Nicosia reported the theft Friday to the Twin Cities Police Department, which covers Larkspur and Corte Madera in Marin County, where he lives. The police report found no sign of forced entry.

"It was a very clean burglary. They didn't break any glass. They didn't take anything like cameras sitting by. It was a very professional job," Nicosia said.

"Was it a thrill-seeker who wanted a piece of history? It could be," Nicosia said. "You'd think there was a very strong political motivation for taking those files. The odds are in favor of that."

So, why was the FBI investigating VVAW? Well, there were some hot heads in the organization who went so far as to advocate assassinating US Senators who supported the war. Kerry was NOT one of them, but he knew of their intentions and apparently didn't report it.
