conspiracy theories are claims that some or all elements of the Apollo Project lunar landings were falsified by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and possibly members of other involved organizations. Since the conclusion of the Apollo program, a number of related Moon hoax accounts have been advanced by various groups and individuals, including claims that the Apollo astronauts did not land on the Moon, that the NASA and possibly others intentionally deceived the public into believing the landings did occur by manufacturing, destroying, or tampering with evidence, including photos, telemetry tapes, transmissions, and rock samples; and that the deception continues to this day.
There is independent evidence for Apollo Moon landings and commentators have published detailed rebuttals to the hoax claims.A 1999 poll by The Gallup Organization found that 89% of the US public believed the landings were genuine, while 6% did not, and 5% were undecided.
A new set of images published by the NASA in July of 2009, taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) mission show lunar landers (including that of Apollo 11) standing on the surface, science experiments and, in one case, astronaut footprints in a line between the Apollo 14 lander and a nearby science experiment.
1) Complete hoax — The idea that the entire human landing program was completely falsified from start to finish. Some claim that the technology to send men to the Moon was insufficient or that the Van Allen radiation belts, solar flares, solar wind, coronal mass ejections, and cosmic rays made such a trip impossible.
2) Partial hoax / unmanned landings — Bart Sibrel has stated that the crew of Apollo 11 and subsequent astronauts had faked their orbit around the Moon and their walk on its surface by trick photography, and that they never got more than halfway to the Moon. A subset of this proposal is advocated by those who concede the existence of retroreflectors and other observable human-made objects on the Moon. British publisher Marcus Allen represented this argument when he said "I would be the first to accept what [telescope images of the landing site] find as powerful evidence that something was placed on the Moon by man." He goes on to say that photographs of the lander would not prove that America put men on the Moon. "Getting to the Moon really isn't much of a problem the Russians did that in 1959, the big problem is getting people there." He suggests that NASA sent robot missions because radiation levels in space would be lethal to humans. Another variant on this is the idea that NASA and its contractors did not recover quickly enough from the Apollo 1 fire, and so all the early Apollo missions were faked, with Apollo 14 or 15 being the first authentic mission.
3) Manned landings, with cover-ups — Philippe Lheureux, in Lumières sur la Lune (Lights on the Moon), said that astronauts did land on the Moon, but that, in order to prevent other nations from benefiting from scientific information in the real photos, NASA published fake images.
Several motives are given by hoax proponents for the U.S. government to fake the Moon landings.
1) Cold War prestige — The U.S. government considered it vital that the U.S. win the Space Race against the Soviet Union. Going to the Moon would be risky and expensive. (John F. Kennedy famously said that the U.S. chose to go because it was hard). Bill Kaysing maintained that, despite close monitoring by the Soviet Union, it would have been easier for the U.S. to fake it, and consequently guarantee success, than for the U.S. actually to go.
2) Money — NASA raised approximately $30 billion to go to the Moon. Bill Kaysing claims that this amount could have been used to pay off a large number of people, providing significant motivation for complicity.
3) Risk — This argument assumes that the problems early in the space program were insurmountable, even by a technology team fully motivated and funded to fix the problems. Kaysing claimed that the chance of a successful landing on the Moon was calculated to be 0.017%.
4) Distraction — According to hoax proponents, the U.S. government benefited from a popular distraction from the Vietnam War. Lunar activities suddenly stopped, with planned missions canceled, around the same time that the U.S. ceased its involvement in the Vietnam War. However, the Apollo program was canceled several years before the Vietnam War ended.
5) Delivering the promise — To seemingly fulfill President Kennedy's 1961 promise "to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth."
I pointed out in the facebook group against the denial of the Holocaust this video as an attempt to youtube to deny the massacres of Jews made by Von Braun, stopping the counts visits this video as if youtube wants to deny the holocaust.

Jesus Christ man chill out they haven't blocked the view count one of two things has happened
1. You have gotten so many views that the views update weekly instead of instantly (if this has happened you should see a question mark icon next to your view counter roll over it with your mouse and it explains what has happened)
2. People aren't viewing your video as much as before (very common with small channels and I speak from experience).
Honestly YouTube isn't a bunch of Nazis just chill out.

not true point 1 and not true point 2, maybe is true point 3: The censure and block of youtube is do by the different country, for example yotube in iran is censure or block by the iranian government and not from the usa, the same in this case, don't forget that i live in a country where there a fascist government. So is true that in some country the video of youtube are censured or block by a bunch of nazi! ;)

maybe youtube has blocked the visits count of this video because it wants to hide the fact that W. Von Braun had frozen thousands of Jews for study the variation of temperature in space and with his V2 destroyed all london, for youtube maybe is good to present the nazi criminal W. Von braum how an american hero!

i don't understand why youtube has block the count view of this video since 2 weeks ago is block at 301 views, just 1 month ago block the count view of my video about gandhi, when my video contain a NAZI true, youtube block always the count view.... i don't know if also youtube has a NAZI ideological contamination....

the money used to give the impression of going to the moon were actually spent to build a long tunnel in 51 to go in the hollow earth. My grandfather when he saw the landing of man on the moon exclaimed: "But this is a film by Stanley Kubrick !"
