Fuck what an absolute fucking joke. High level security risk my fucking ass.

Was it a high level security risk when other artists were basically blackballed for speaking out against israel's actions and attempting to show art they'd created they denounced israels actions?

Get absolutely fucked.

"Security concerns" sounds a lot like "bowing to terrorists"

If someone's gonna get narky over a palestinian flag, they can go fuck themselves

If the NGA is govt owned, is there means to FOI it and find out how credible these “security threats” where and whose decision it ultimately was to make the threat to either cancel the exhibit or censor it was?

Because that sounds like an absolute bullshit excuse by the NGA thugs.

RTI, not FOI. But one could certainly try. Given it's allegedly security though, I wouldn't like your chances of success. There seems to be a pretty strong reluctance to turn over documents when a security threat is alleged.

This is worse, it's erasure.
