(Gold9472: However, he's promoting some of Judy Wood's information, and that's not good.)

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Jesse Ventura says he regrets not asking more questions about the 9/11 attacks when he was still governor of Minnesota.

Ventura tells the nationally syndicated radio host Alex Jones that his skepticism about the official version of events would have then carried more weight.

Among many other things, Ventura questions how the Twin Towers could have fallen so fast and in such a way as to turn so much of the wreckage into dust.

He also says that after watching the Twin Towers collapse in slow motion, it appears to him exactly like the controlled demolition of a Las Vegas hotel.

Ventura spoke on Jones' program on Wednesday. Ventura was elected as an independent in 1998 and left office in 2003 after deciding not to seek re-election.

Jones frequently questions the events surrounding 9/11 and often discusses conspiracies on his radio show and documentary films.

Minnesota's most colorful former governor, Jesse Ventura, says he's been doing some research into the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, and it's looking to him like the truth about what brought buildings down has yet to come out, in part because of a media coverup.

Appearing Wednesday on "The Alex Jones Show," a syndicated radio program, Ventura said based on his demolition training as a Navy SEAL, a visit to Ground Zero a few weeks after 9/11 and watching "super-slow motion" video of the falling buildings, he's concluded the structures look like they fell because of a controlled demolition.

He goes on to describe a third building that was not hit by a plane but collapsed later in the day. "Two planes struck two buildings," he said "But how is it that a third building fell five hours later?

"How could this building just implode into its own footprint five hours later? That's my first question. … The 9/11 Commission didn't even devote one page to that in their big volume of investigation."

Jesse Ventura questioning “official” 9/11 story

Here are some quotes from the former governor from this article at Prison Planet:
  • “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.”
  • “When I finally did watch it I went through every emotion you could imagine, from laughing, crying, getting sick to my stomach, to the whole emotional thing.”
  • “To me questions haven’t been answered and are not being answered about 9/11.”
  • “Two planes struck two buildings….but how is it that a third building fell 5 hours later? How could this building just implode into its own footprint 5 hours later – that’s my first question – the 9/11 Commission didn’t even devote one page to that in their big volume of investigation.”
  • “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?”
  • “If you took a billiard ball and dropped it from the height of the World Trade Center in a vacuum it would hit the ground in 9.3 seconds and if you took that same billiard ball and dropped it 10 stories at a time and merely stopped it and started it it would take 30 seconds – if you dropped it every floor of the World Trade Center to the ground, simply stopping and starting it on gravity it would take over 100 seconds to reach the ground.”
  • “Jet fuel is four fifths kerosene – which is not a hot burning fuel – and they wanted us to believe it melted these steel structured girders and caused these buildings to pancake collapse to the ground?”
  • “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.”
  • “Never before in the annuls of history has a fire caused a steel structure building to fall to the ground like these two did.”
  • “Upon looking at the film in super-slow motion and the way the buildings fell and comparing that to the way that they do like a controlled demolition of a hotel in Las Vegas, they both fell identical.”
  • “I did watch the film of Building 7 going down and in my opinion there’s no doubt that that building was brought down with demolition.”
  • “When I was watching Loose Change with a friend of mine – he happens to work for a company that helps build the Boeing airplanes and they said that when the engines completely disappeared and were destroyed, his response was, excuse my French – bullshit!”
  • “I turned to him and said why and he said because they’re made of titanium steel – they can’t disintegrate.”
My opinion is that anyone has the right to believe what they want about the “official” version of 9/11. However, I’ll not be voting for anyone who thinks that a government which routinely reacts in a bumbling Keystone Cops manner to issues ranging from Hurricane Katrina to torture at Abu Ghraib can effectively cover up an operation as large and complex as what they suggest happened on 9/11.
