Willie Nelson: Twin Towers Were Imploded On 9/11

Straight talking American icon Willie Nelson today told a national radio show that he thought the twin towers were imploded like condemned Las Vegas casino buildings, as the country music superstar voiced his doubts about the official 9/11 story.

Agreeing with host Alex Jones that he questioned the official story, Nelson elaborated, "I saw those towers fall and I’ve seen an implosion in Las Vegas - there’s too much similarities between the two, and I saw a building fall that didn’t get hit by nothing," added Nelson, referring to WTC Building 7 which collapsed in the late afternoon of September 11.

"How naive are we - what do they think we’ll go for?," asked Nelson, pointing out that his doubts began on the very day of 9/11.

"I saw one fall and it was just so symmetrical, I said wait a minute I just saw that last week at the casino in Las Vegas and you see these implosions all the time and the next one fell and I said hell there’s another one - and they’re trying to tell me that an airplane did it and I can’t go along with that," said Nelson.

The former Highwayman, fresh from his appearance at this past weekend’s superbowl, questioned why Afghanistan became an immediate target in the aftermath of 9/11 when the official story posited that mostly Saudi Arabians were responsible for the attack.

"When I get hit I like to look around and see who did it before I start swinging at everybody in the room and that’s kind of what we were doing," said Nelson, "We get hit over here and then next thing you know we’re jumping on everybody in the town - so (if) we got hit from Saudi Arabia, I think we’ve got some questions that need to be answered from those folks," said Nelson.

In light of his viewpoint, Nelson said that recent revelations concerning the impartiality of the 9/11 Commission and its close links with the White House did not surprise him.

"What does it take for us to realize we’re having the wool pulled over our eyes one more time?" he concluded.

Nelson is not the first high-profile public figure to question 9/11. In March 2006, actor Charlie Sheen voiced his doubts and was followed last year by his father Martin Sheen.

Aside from celebrities - professors, scientists and other experts the world over have questioned the inconsistencies in the official story, and the topic was most recently even a subject of serious debate in the Japanese Parliament.

Nelson’s country music contemporaries The Dixie Chicks were savaged by the establishment when they criticized the Bush administration shortly before the invasion of Iraq. It remains to be seen whether the corporate media will dare take on Nelson for his views or whether they will just try to ignore the story as happened with Martin Sheen.

"The country crooner recently appeared in a commercial for H&R Block that aired during the Super Bowl. In it, Nelson makes a shaving cream commercial to pay for his accountant's "mistake" in missed taxes. The moral: Get good tax advice. Nelson should know. The IRS once fined him a whopping $32 million after he got caught up in a bogus tax shelter. Nelson settled the case for roughly $16 million. Like some taxpayers, he didn't quite have the cash on hand to pay the tab. To raise money, he released an album entitled, "The IRS Tapes - Who'll Buy My Memories?

Willie needs to lay off the Herb.

RE: Willie Nelson

I haven't touched the herb (or any other illegal substances) for almost ten years now, and I think he's right in saying that the world trade towers weren't destroyed by anything resembling a building collapse due to structural failure. They were pulverized. Look at the collapse pictures, look at how everything was turned to dust, look at the peculiarly small rubble pile, etc.

Willie's entitled to his opinion, and he's not alone. (I'm of the planes-hit-the-towers camp, but hey, what do I know?)

I found an older discussion of this on Hot Topics forum (where we're s'posed to talk politics):
