    Now, this is just my opinion, but I think that the claim that the both CIA and FBI knew about Lee Harvey Oswald before the assassination of JFK is mostly true.

      LOL. Objectively speaking, I think, JFK was assassinated by Lee Oswald because Oswald who was a communist sympathized with the Castro regime and was angry at JFK's multiple attempts to fight communism such as the Bay of Pigs and multiple attempts to assassinate Castro. It's sexy to invoke the Mob, FBI and CIA but probably just fantasy. It's cute you did this live.

    Let's get one thing straight, Jackie flat out refused to change her blood and tissue spattered outfit. She did that on purpose. She knew she was irritating the hell out of people around her by so doing. There was no one, NO ONE more heroic on that day than Jacqueline Kennedy. She was asked several times to get out of what must have become a grotesque and smelly get up, and she said; "No, I want them to see what they did to Jack." She knew she was a gory witness to a horrible crime. Whoever said "oooh it was such a whirlwind she didn't have the chance to change...." in the comments below is an example of ignorance.

    I was born about a week after JFK was shot. The day it happened my mom was in the doctor’s office for a routine check up. The doctor was telling her what to pack, what papers to sign, what to expect at the hospital- when the receptionist came in and told them, “I heard on the radio just now that President Kennedy had been shot!”
    The doctor and Mom just looked at each other and at the receptionist in total shock.
    Later, Mom drove over to her mother’s house. Sure enough, there was Grandma sitting in front of the T.V., watching Walter Kronkite get kicked off the set for breaking down in front of the whole nation! She and Mom then continued to watch the live coverage without saying a word to each other.
    Dad then came to Grandma’s from work asking what was going on since no one was was at our house when he got there. Mom and Grandma both looked at him like, “Excuse us? You didn’t hear anything at work? You’re from Boston and you didn’t hear anything? (We were living in Indiana at the time.)”
    Mom went into labor with me while watching JFK’s funeral on T.V.
    I was born November 28, 1963, at 8:44 p.m. local time in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

The Europeans would be confirmed in their understanding that it's just too far to Asia going west, and not know about the land mass much closer to them, and so they'd continue sailing around Africa or going overland through Asia Minor rather than sail west into the void. Meanwhile, the Americans who had the displeasure of Columbus's acquaintance would tell everyone around them about those horrible people from across the big water.

      I think JFK was not driven by being remembered as someone great, but I think he was driven by doing the right thing in spite of the power structures that could have made him look like the bad guy. Maybe he misjudged how far they were willing to go to hold on to their power.

    Despite JFK’s bad back, Canada got him to engage in a tree planting ceremony in Ottawa. The ceremony worsen JFK’s back and helped influence him to wear a back brace. That back brace prevented JFK from recoiling forward or leaning forward after being shot in the neck. As a result, a second more fatal shot was made.

In fact, their joint testimonies made recent news after hiding it from the public for so many decades. It was a cover up by the CIA to scare them and force them to go along with the lone gunman "shot in the back" myth. He was shot by multiple assassins, none of which included Lee Harvey Oswald. This video is sad that it still continues to perpetuate that long debunked cover up and false narrative planted by the US government.

      Many Americans and others were quietly pleased about the assassination. I was a kid with big ears. Do you think that Republicans cared?
      J.F.K. was a myth and probably would have died very young anyway. It disgusts me how that family is romanticized. The story of the Kennedy's is just a fairy tale.
      The medical records reveal that Kennedy variously took codeine, Demerol and methadone for pain; Ritalin, a stimulant; meprobamate andlibrium for anxiety; barbiturates for sleep; thyroid hormone; and injections of a blood derivative, gamma globulin, a medicine thatcombats infections.
      During the Bay of Pigs fiasco in 1961, and the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962, Kennedy was taking steroids for his Addison's disease, painkillers for his back, anti-spasmodics for his colitis, antibiotics for urinary tract infections, antihistamines for his allergies, and on at least one occasion, an anti-psychotic drug to treat a severe mood change that Jackie Kennedy believed was brought on by the antihistamines.

    Fun fact about this. This past summer I was an intern at the Western Reserve Historical Society.

I never met him, but everyone talked about how cool of a guy he is.

I generally am no conspiracy theorist but in this case I don't think the public has been told the truth, or at least important elements of the truth. I have at various times wondered if various foreign governments, organized crime, or even American political figures had a hand in the murder. I don't think the truth will ever be told.

    It was raining in Dallas on the morning of 11/22.
    In fact, JFK initially expected a bubble top on the car, and as he was 6' 1'', he would have to duck a little bit to avoid hitting the car roof.
    The rain soon blew over by noon and JFK went out without a bubble top.
    If he did have the bubble top, he'd likely be hit in the shoulder or chest, and would likely have survived.

Oswald was a sketchy character, no doubt, but as it turns out he actually may have telling the truth when he claimed to be just a patsy.

    Nobody can place Oswald on the sixth floor at the time of the shooting. He was seen on the second floor five minutes prior, and less than 90 seconds afterward, calmly drinking a Coke in the second floor lunch room. A paraffin test showed that he had not fired a rifle that day. He had no motive. He can not definitively be connected to the rifle which, as it turns out, was initially identified by five experienced cops as a German Mauser. They only claimed it was the famous Carcano when they decided they could link the Carcano to Oswald. Oswald owned no bullets, no gun cleaning equipment. If Oswald had gone to trial and been represented by competent counsel, he would have been acquitted. He denied doing it: "I didn't shoot anybody," he said on camera. He was denied legal representation and interrogated for twelve hours over the next forty-eight hours, and not a single record, note, or recording of his interrogation was made. Then two days after his arrest, he was assassinated by a lifelong Mafia associate in the basement of the Dallas police station in front of seventy cops, so that he could never have his day in court.

      Mrs. Geraldine Reid. Here, for the first time, is Geraldine Reid's testimony:
      About one minute before the fatal shots were fired at the motorcade, Lee Oswald walked into the office across the second floor hallway from the snack room where he had been eating his lunch. He wanted to buy a bottle of soda and did not have the required change for the machine. He walked up to Geraldine Reid at her desk and handed her a dollar bill and asked her for change.
      "Mr. Oswald didn't like pennies. I remember that," she recalled. "As I was counting out the change, I heard what I later learned were gunshots. Mr. Oswald and I looked at each other quizzically for a moment, but neither of us said anything about the sounds. I did not know that they were shots at the time. I gave Mr. Oswald the change and he turned and walked back into the hallway toward the snack room. That's the last time I saw him until he passed by me a few minutes later as he was leaving the building."
      Approximately seventy-two seconds after the shots ended and Oswald had returned to the snack room to buy a soda from the machine, Officer Marrion Baker and Oswald's boss, Roy Truly, confronted him in the snack room. Truly told Baker that it was alright and that Oswald, in fact, worked for him. At that time, Truly mentioned to Lee that President Kennedy had been shot. Oswald seemed genuinely surprised. Baker and Truly then left the lunchroom and headed upstairs to investigate further. In the meantime, someone had informed Geraldine Reid about the assassination.
      Geraldine Reid's final encounter with Lee Oswald occurred a few minutes later. "The last time I saw Mr. Oswald, he was leaving the building," Reid stated. "As he passed me by, I noticed that he had his jacket slung over his arm. I told him that the President had just been shot and he simply said 'Oh?' or something like that, and kept on walking out of the office to go downstairs and, I assume, out of the building."

      The affirmation or oath is declaratory. The office starts at the time designated in the constitution. Normally that's the 20th of January at 12:00 EST.
      In case of the death of the president it's the moment the president is declared dead. Then the Vice President is immediately president. In both cases, the affirmation is usually given as close as possible to the start of the office, but even if the affirmation is not given at all, the office starts. The affirmation is only declaratory.

    When I visited Dealey Plaza and the Sixth Floor museum, I was struck by how small the area was. While the shot from the sixth floor might have been challenging, a shot from the grassy knoll behind the fence would have been easy. One other thing I found interesting is that museum had a collection of cameras, all of which took pictures of the assassination that day. None of them were entered into evidence for the Warren commission.

    • @claytonberg721
      @claytonberg721 Před 5 měsíci +10

      The shot from the grassy knoll would have been from side to side. From the book depository the target slowly moving away from you. Textbook sniper position. Also the distance was 80 metres. For any rifle that's a very good range. Most hunters will tell you that distance is a sweet spot.
      For a nation full of gun nuts to believe that someone of average skill can't make a basically stationary 80 metre shot with a rifle... well. The fact that this conversation is on going all these years later impinges the very validity of the 2nd amendment argument. While a lot of Americans may own guns a lot of them don't know how to use them and couldn't use the to defend themselves against an invading force if it became necessary.

There are a few very important events you left out of the video such as the pencil sized hole in the windshield, the damage chrome trim above the windshield, the piece of the curb on Elm St.that was removed that had evidence of a bullet stike, the umbrella man, which may have played a larger role than what some people realize. There was also a rush to destroy evidence in the limo itself in the interior, mainly the seats and door panels, i personally dont think Oswald fired the deadly shot, the head shot came from the front, physics told me that back when i saw the Zapruder Film for the 1st time. There were very many odd events that took place on Nov. 22, 1963, from Officer Tippitt to the 2 caskets and disappearing witnesses. Until the over 4000 pages of unredacted documents are released none of us will really know the whole truth.

      b) Idea somebody desperate to frame this on Oswald from behind the limo stood directly in front of the car (where, exactly...?), fired through glass (!!!) and shot Kennedy in the face with a different gun, is obviously stupid.
      c) Kennedy is plainly seen in the film to suffer a massive exit wound at the temple consistent only with a shot from behind.
      d) Oswald was ID'd by nearly a dozen witnesses as shooting Tippit and the shells were matched to his gun.
      e) What the heck is the point of messing around with the body and faking the autopsy when leaving well enough alone and saying Oswald must have had an accomplice who got away would have suited any conspiracy just fine?
