Former Governor Jesse Ventura Says WTC Collapse a Controlled Demolition

AUSTIN, Texas, April 3 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- According to an appearance on the Alex Jones Show, former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura blasted the official 9/11 story - citing that evidence disproves the government's claims that jet fuel melted the Twin Towers' steel girders.
"How could those buildings fall at the speed of gravity - if you put a stopwatch on them both of those World Trade Center buildings were on the ground in ten seconds - how can that be?" asked Ventura. "Never before in the annals of history has a fire caused a steel structure building to fall to the ground like these two did."
Ventura said he was convinced the collapses of the towers and WTC Building 7 were too similar to the controlled demolition of Las Vegas hotels. Ventura has experience with explosives from Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL training and believes unequivocally the buildings were deliberately imploded.
"I was on the site within two weeks after it happened and I saw none of these pancakes - wouldn't they all be piled up in a huge mass on the ground and yet everything was blown into dust - when you look at it from that aspect none of it makes any sense," Ventura told the Alex Jones Show.
Ventura expressed regret that he had initially believed the official story because he could have used his power as governor to raise pointed questions in the media.
"I kicked myself when it initially happened that the light didn't go off but I was so shocked that this thing had even taken place that I apologize for not being more aware," said Ventura, adding that watching Loose Change at the insistence of his son was part of the catalyst for his wake up call.
The Governor's bold comments about 9/11 come on the heels of similar views expressed by American icon Willie Nelson during an interview on the same radio show in February.

How about Jesse the Jerkoff Ventura
Lord help us all if we elect that angry SNL has been.....
I guess this is part of the reason why during the Vietnam war, he was never sent “in country”
I work 2 blocks from the site. I don’t have an absolute trust in government. Ventura, I guess, ignored Popular Mechanics explanation of how the buildings came straight down. The elevators were in the middle. They were the main support. They were designed by the architect this way to prevent a tipping destruction.
If he thinks airplane fuel doesn’t burn hotter than Sunoco 280, then Jesse is a big fool.
I still weep for the people that died that day. I know who did it and it wasn’t our government.
I would take huge crews of workers to wire those buildings to blow up.After all these years not 1 of the 100s of workers have come out and told the truth ? Not 1 person who worked there in all these years ever mentioned that they saw guys running wires and explosives through all the floors for weeks? What a conspiracy, thousands in on it and not one leak in all this time WOW!!!!!!!!!
Do these idiots ever debate any rational people on this matter ?
They why isn't he running against Obama? /s
There were no bolts holding the floor joists to the outside columns at the upper floor joist bracket.
you could be right but I tend to believe these people are just plain old morons and a- holes.
Sounds like he got hit in the head too many times.
Thinking you have a brain doesn’t make it so.
Do these idiots ever debate any rational people on this matter ?
They don’t have to debate the regular Joe.....they are famous.
His minutes are sitting on 14 and counting.
Re why Ventura was “never sent in country” during the Vietnam war.
I have to ask: Why country - our country or the enemies?
Where would he have been a lesser threat to humanity?
Re his wrestling career. He should have worn a helmet.
All these people forget the BESIDES the fire, the buildings had HUGE holes punched through them . Think that may have had a little to do with the buildings falling down too? I saw it live , I have no question about what happened
I’d leave any of these conspiracy guys standing with their jaws hanging open in about 2 minutes of a real debate on the subject.
you are exactly right we need more conservatives elected in minnesota..
we up north{north of highway 10} are pretty conservative but the city loons keep electing islamics{ellison} and jesse the no brain.. .now stuart smalley...yeah great state but all dim except pawlenty{gov}
it’s stunning how many people with some level of education can believe something so heinous.
To believe that 9/11 was something other than an AQ attack, you must believe that there are people in the U.S. government who are so incredibly evil that they would willingly kill thousands of their fellow citizens so......insert evil intention here.
You have to seriously hate people in general to believe this kind of crap. You really, really have to have some rotted, decaying, vile stuff inside your soul to accuse others of being capable of something like this simply because you don’t like Bush. To ignore a confession from OBL and instead suspect that it was somebody in the US who did this.
Thank you SandRat, I was about to call upon you. Better keep it handy for the next few months, I got feeling we will be needing it a lot.
Jesse has joined that other distinguished physicist Rosie O’Donnell. They can’t even be dignified by the term “conspiracy theorists” because they’re too ignorant to even fabricate a theory that goes beyond the instant laugh-test.
