In light of the newly released documents, we wanted to go back and look into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy to see what the evidence was, how the narrative was shaped by the government immediately following, and all of the information we’ve learned from government agencies since that day in Dallas in 1963.

We have had to censor depictions of the assassination in order to make this video widely available on YouTube. The uncensored cut is published on Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/johnnyharris-why-people-think-the…

  • The funny thing is that the Soviets were also surprised and had to check if their agents did it.
  • @Josh-oz9dd
    The fact that they want the public to know “ HE ACTED ALONE “ makes me think he didn’t act alone
  • @TIOLIOfficial
    People from that time grow old, had kids who never learned about this, ultimately making new generations completely unaware of how untrustworthy the governments of the world rolling over them are.

    Living under the american government is like playing a board game with a 10 year old who makes up new rules to favor themselves
  • @wiz3010
    It's really sad that 2 men who wanted peace got assassinated. Rip JFK and MLK
  • @j-davis7290
    My favorite 20th century history teacher, Mr. Savino taught a lot of this during that portion of the class, and without giving any of us his opinions, most of us came to the same conclusion- and it wasn't the government's story.

    My girlfriend’s grandfather worked for the FBI when this happened, he was on the team who transported Oswald, he won’t even talk to me about JFK, he silences the conversation if he’s brought up.
  • Investigating yourself (government) and finding yourself innocent of any wrongdoing or treason is of the highest dodginess
  • Releasing the documents for the first time after 40 years it's like "here, we have covered up and altered them as much as we can so now you can have it" it's like giving you the impression that you finally have the documents from back then, but let's be real, they are not the real ones that tell the real story.
  • I think the biggest thing that no one talks about was Oswald's movement after he left the depository. If he wanted to get away he could've. He took a bus and a cab to get to his boarding house. Why wouldn't he just take the cab or the bus and go somewhere else? Then after he gets home, he grabs a gun and then starts walking the street? Of course which led to the Tippitt killing. That doesn't sound like self preservation to me. I'm convinced he left his boarding house to meet up with someone. I mean how can someone be James Bond one minute and then turn into boy blunder the next?

    The more I learn about Hoover the more I feel like he was one of the worst people to ever work in the US government.

    “The most memorable moment came when Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his ˋI Have a Dream’ speech from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. President Kennedy, concerned about the potential impact of the March on his pending civil rights legislation, initially did not support the event. But, after the successful conclusion of the March, he invited civil rights leaders to the White House where they discussed the need for bi-partisan support of civil rights legislation. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 During the summer and fall of 1963, the Kennedy administration worked to build bi-partisan support for the legislation. In late fall, the comprehensive civil rights bill cleared several hurdles in Congress and won the endorsement of House and Senate Republican leaders. It was not passed, however, before November 22, 1963.” They knew what he was doing, the military, the CIA, the FBI. They knew it was a revolutionary time in history. A time in which America had the opportunity to leave it’s pasted behind for a future of true freedom and respect for your fellow man. And they couldn’t let such a thing become our reality.
  • @maryhaddock5277
    I always believed Lyndon Johnson knew all about the assassination and part of it
  • @lennon1252
    "Doubting the official story here, isn't as crazy as you think" Actually quite the opposite. Believing the official story is crazy.
  • @braxxian
    The actions of Jack Ruby add as much to the conspiracy angle as Oswald himself. The fact that the named assassin was conveniently bumped off before any trial could even happen cemented this as a conspiracy that would never end.
  • That bullet with 7 wounds??? Not a fing chance. This is my first time seeing that bullet but copper traveling that fast mushrooms as soon as it hits bone. That only went through soft tissue.
