Video — Student Asks Myron Gaines: "Who Did 9/11?"
A student asks Myron Gaines the question "Who did 9/11?" in what appears to be a campus or public forum setting. Gaines has publicly stated views connecting both 9/11 and the JFK assassination to Israeli/Zionist networks — positions he has expressed on his podcast and at college campus appearances.

Overview
Myron Gaines (real name Amrou Fudl) is a Sudanese-American podcaster best known as co-host of the Fresh & Fit podcast, which launched in October 2020 and became a popular platform on YouTube and other platforms. Before podcasting, he worked for approximately six years as a Special Agent with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), a division of ICE focused on transnational crime, human trafficking, and financial crimes.
His background in federal law enforcement — specifically an agency with access to intelligence on transnational crime networks — has given his public statements on conspiracy topics a degree of attention beyond typical commentators. He has publicly stated views about Israeli/Zionist involvement in the JFK assassination and 9/11, which overlap with the central thesis of this investigation.
Stated Views on JFK and 9/11
According to reporting by HonestReporting and the Southern Poverty Law Center, Gaines has promoted on his podcast the theory that Israeli/Zionist networks were responsible for the JFK assassination, consistent with the "Mossad/Israel angle" documented elsewhere in this investigation.
He has also, according to multiple published reports, promoted the claim that "Zionist fingerprints" were on the 9/11 attacks — a view that aligns with the cross-referenced claims in this investigation's Israel/Mossad Angle page.
Important attribution note: These views are reported by third parties documenting his public statements. They represent his claimed analysis, not verified intelligence. Readers should view the source video for his exact words in context.
Controversy and Platform Context
According to the Southern Poverty Law Center's Hatewatch and the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Gaines has made a range of controversial statements beyond JFK/9/11:
- At Ohio University in March 2026, reportedly performed a Nazi salute and disputed Holocaust death tolls, according to the JTA
- YouTube demonetized his channel in August 2023 for policy violations
- The SPLC documented his appearances at college campuses promoting content they characterize as racist, antisemitic, and misogynistic
These controversies are relevant context when evaluating his credibility as a source on intelligence-related conspiracy theories. His JFK/9/11 claims should be evaluated on their own merits, not adopted simply because he holds a federal law enforcement background.
Counterarguments
- Gaines's views on 9/11 and JFK are not based on access to classified documents or primary intelligence — they appear to be his interpretive analysis of publicly available conspiracy research.
- His broader pattern of making controversial statements (Holocaust denial, Nazi salute at a campus event) undercuts his credibility as an analytical source.
- No former HSI colleagues have publicly confirmed or endorsed his views on 9/11 or JFK.
- His specific claims about Israeli involvement have not been independently corroborated by other former intelligence officers (compare: John Kiriakou, who does have a CIA primary source background and made specific document-based claims).
Relevance to This Investigation
Gaines is documented here as a public figure who has amplified the Israel/Mossad theory of the JFK assassination on a significant media platform (millions of YouTube views). His claims overlap with — but are distinct from — the more substantive disclosures by John Kiriakou, who cites specific classified documents rather than general conspiracy frameworks.
The student-asks-Gaines format of this video illustrates how these theories have spread beyond specialist researchers and into popular discourse, particularly among younger audiences reached by podcasters.
