What’s the purpose of publishing these? Why now? Why redacted still?

Interesting to read but … why bother?

> Why redacted still

Because a number of the people associated with this are still alive on all sides.

1998-2001 was only 25-28 years ago, so a lot of sources are still alive or active sources as we speak, and in a number of cases now decisionmakers in theirs early-mid 60s.

It's the same way how a KGB liaison officer in 1989 Dresden ended up invading Ukraine 25 years later.

> Interesting to read but … why bother?

It still has academic value, and plenty of information to be garnered.
