21. Gov. Ventura wants 9/11 truth on air defense
Gov. Ventura wants 9/11 truth on air defense
Black OP Radio -
Friday, August 20, 2004

Jesse Ventura is discussing a rather large problem with the official 9/11
chronology. This audio clip is from Black Op Radio (July 22nd)
BLACK OP RADIO HOST ANITA LANGLEY: On the current situation, do you
see any parallels with the way the 9/11 has
been treated?
FORMER MINNESOTA GOVERNOR JESSE VENTURA: Well, you know... At first,
again, I wanted to believe 9/11, you know. But the problem I have with
9/11 is just a real simple one. I'm trying to figure out -- and of
course they're now attempting to answer it somewhat -- how we could
have failed so miserably in not having air defense.
Because if you look back particulalrly -- I don't know if you're
familiar -- remember Payne Stewart, the golfer?
LANGLEY: Yeah, that's been brought up a few times on this program...
GOV. VENTURA: He was flying in a private jet. And when they had that
mechanical malfunction that apparently killed everyone on board, and
the jet was up there flying on automatic pilot; well it only took them
a matter of minutes to scramble a fighter jet and have it up there on
the wing. And had Mr. Stewart's plane, if it looked like it was going
to go down and hit a metropolitan area, of course they would blow it
out of the air. But when they saw it was just going to land in a field
in Nebraska , why they just let it go
down and crash on its own.
And the problem I have with 9/11 is that. Where the heck was our
defense? Who was sleeping at the wheel? While all of these planes... I
mean, I've been to air traffic control when I was Governor, and you've
got a dozen people there looking at these dials, watching every plane
in their sector. They know where it's going and they know what
direction it's supposed to be going.
Now, how is it that these planes were able to be hijacked at half hour
intervals, turned directly opposite the way they're supposed to be
going and no bells went off, no emergency sirens went off, no fighter
jets were scrambled? Just what the hell happened in that area of
time?! And that's the part that troubles me about 9/11.

HOST LEN OSANIC: Yeah, I find it troubling that the Pentagon got hit at all.
GOV. VENTURA: Yeah, I mean, here's the Pentagon, the head of our
military. How was this plane able to circle the city of Baltimore
at least once, picking out a target, and
then drive into it, and we didn't have -- nothing up in the air? There
wasn't one scrambled fighter jet up there to defend in any way, shape,
or form? Wow.

OSANIC: Or a missle battery to defend the Pentagon...
GOV VENTURA: Yeah. Anything, anything! And the thing that troubles me
about the Bush Administration, nobody ever gets fired...
