In reply to the discussion: NYC Reporter's EPIC TAKEDOWN Of Rudy Giuliani's 'LOVE' [View all]nichomachus
(12,754 posts)21. Giuliani hasn't been right in the head since
the 9-11 hijackers blew up his love nest in WTC7 where he used to fuck around with his mistress. It was a "command post." Yeah, right.
Rudy wanted the love nest, excuse me, command post, there so he could walk there to meet up with the mistress -- even though almost everyone opposed the site on security reasons.
Of course, the consequences of putting the center there were predictable. The terrorist who engineered the 1993 bombing told the FBI they were coming back to the trade center. Opposing the site at a meeting with the mayor, Police Commissioner Howard Safir called it "Ground Zero" because of the earlier attack. Lou Anemone, the highest-ranking uniformed officer in the NYPD, wrote memos slamming the site. "I've never seen in my life 'walking distance' as some kind of a standard for crisis management," Anemone said later. "But you don't want to confuse Giuliani with the facts." Anemone had done a detailed vulnerability study of the city for Giuliani, pinpointing terrorist targets. "In terms of targets, the WTC was number one," he says. "I guess you had to be there in 1993 to know how strongly we felt it was the wrong place."
