The last remaining sealed U.S. government documents on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas on Nov. 22, 1963, were released this week, after nearly 70 years of secrecy.

But will their release end the public’s belief in conspiracy theories or fuel it even more?

There has been much speculation on what the world might have been like had Kennedy lived, maybe even serving a second term.

The official government story is that Kennedy was killed by a Soviet sympathizer and former U.S. Army veteran marksman, Lee Harvey Oswald.

Much of the public, however, believes that isn’t the end of the story. Darker and more sinister forces involving organized crime, the rise of Communism, hidden but powerful officials in the U.S. government, FBI, CIA and the military, and even foreign leaders in Moscow, Cuba and Israel are involved.
