Giuliani Gets Exposed As Fraud by Firefighters
BackGiuliani Bungled Preparation in Years After 1993 Attack on Trade Center.
Critical failures by former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani before, during and after the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001, raise serious questions about his ability to be commander-in-chief.
In this thirteen minute documentary, fire fighters, fire officers and family members give dramatic testimony about Giuliani's leadership failures. Their dramatic stories tell how Giuliani failed to provide the FDNY with radios that worked, which led to the deaths of 121 fire fighters inside the World Trade Center's North Tower because they were unable to hear orders to evacuate.
Fire fighters also point to Giuliani's poor judgment in placing his emergency command center at 7 World Trade Center, a known terrorist target after the 1993 bombing.
This video documents the mayor's lack of respect for the fallen when he called off the recovery effort at Ground Zero on Nov. 1, 2001, after $200 million in gold bullion was recovered.
"We produced this documentary because we need to make sure our members know Giuliani's real record," said IAFF General President Harold Schaitberger.
"The UFA participated in this video to correct the myth that Rudy Giuliani has perpetrated on the American public," said Steve Cassidy, president of the Uniformed Firefighters Association of Greater New York, IAFF Local 94.
The Giuliani campaign defended the former mayor's record by issuing a release that lists items he purchased for FDNY.
"But the campaign, with its response, has neglected to address the charges of failed leadership outlined in our documentary," President Schaitberger said.
"Purchasing equipment for a fire department doesn't qualify any mayor to be president," said Jack McDonnell, president of New York City Local 854, the Uniformed Fire Officers Association.
"If that's the litmus test for president of the United States, then most mayors in this country qualify for the job. Giuliani is running on his 9/11 record, and his 9/11 record is laced with failures in preparedness and response," McDonnell said.
The IAFF has not made an endorsement in the 2008 presidential election. Local 94 supported President George W. Bush in the 2004 election, while the IAFF
and Local 854 endorsed Sen. John Kerry.
The International Association of Fire Fighters, headquartered in Washington, DC, represents more than 280,000 full-time professional fire fighters and paramedics in every state in the United States and in Canada. More information is available at www.iaff.org and at www.rudy-urbanlegend.com.

It was all about the gold in the first place. You can't just look at Giuliani. Of course you people that were looking for people but the goal set by those higher....rescue that gold.

Rudy Guiliani also "just happened to be in town" on the day of the London subway bombings. Not a coincidence. He is one of the planners of the 9/11 attacks. He knew to move out of building 7 because he knew it was pre-planted to explode. He is GUILTY. TREASON.

Giuliani is a despicable human, and if he can sleep at night, then he's not even human.Altho I'm not American, the NYFD were/are the best in the world. They had to be, yet this piece of scum denied them the right to live. To him they were deposable. Giuliani, you deliberately led these brave souls to their slaughter. You have blood on your hands, and you bathe in it. How dare you even show your face in public. You and your cohorts will one day be made to answer for this barbarism.

Why the hell was he not sued ? Why was he even given the chance to run for President and even speak at the RNC ? This is disgusting he was able to get away with this.
