because they can

removing the primary sources makes quite a strong point of the assumption that a government publication is not exactly what one would like to call the truth. The government itself does not seem to value historians in quite the same way as Dr Pipes values primary sources. How could they do this ? I guess because "they can". My conclusion is there is nothing "original" or "authentic" about the internet.
