Oswalds "view" from the depository (Scoped)

I came across this 40 second clip with
"Oswalds "view" from the depository (Scoped)" :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tU69lMs2 ... ed&search=
And what is very striking is the same thing that sniper legend Craig Roberts remarked about the choice of "zone of engagement" when he visited the "snipers nest" :
"My first choice was directly below the window, at a drastic bend in the street that had to be negotiated by Kennedy's limousine. It would have to slow appreciably, almost to a stop, and when it did, the target would be presented moving at its slowest pace.
The last zone of engagement I would pick would be as the limo drove away toward the west-and the Grassy Knoll. Here, from what I could see, three problems arose that would influence my shots. First, the target was moving away at a drastic angle to the right from the window, meaning that I would have to position my body to compete with the wall and a set of vertical water pipes on the left frame of the window to get a shot. This would be extremely difficult for a right handed shooter. Second, I would have be ready to fire exactly when the target emerged past some tree branches that obscured the kill zone."
