Unique insights and personal reflections from Rudy Giuliani, the world famous mayor, recall the day America suffered the worst terrorist attack in its history. In Giulianis 9/11, archive footage and high-end graphics support compelling interview material in presenting a behind-the-scenes look at the shocking events that were to permanently leave their mark on New York. The citys response to 9/11 is vividly brought to life by the man who led it during that tragic day. Rudy Giuliani discusses his views on leadership and reveals the thought processes that lay behind the decisions he made following the terrorist attacks.

2. This brings to mind something about this attack.
How many of you remember when the republicans were messing their pants trying to "pin" something on President Clinton so they could impeach him? Well the CIA had investigated and found bin Laden (suppose to be in a camp I think either Pakistan or Afgan) well Clinton got approval to bomb the camp and bin Laden got away. The CIA the found him again and Clinton tried to get the republican majority in congress to approve this bombing raid. They refused and said he was just trying to manufacture something in his defense although the CIA backed him up. Come to find out bin Laden was there and we missed our chance to kill him. He then went on to plan and execute the raid on the Twin Towers killing over 3000 people.

Now what makes me so angry is you don't hear any thing from this POS republicans who were in congress at that time who really really could have prevented the 9/11 attack. All you heard after the attacked when Bush IGNORED THE INFORMATION TELLING HIM BIN LADEN WANTED TO ATTACK TALL BUILDINGS, was it was Clinton's fault because he did not kill him in the bombing raid. Damn damn damn. The CIA gave him the info he acted on the first one but congress voted no no no as they are doing now and he could have bombed bin Laden's camp. As now, and then, the MSM said nothing about this.When it comes to Bush and the republicans they can't do any thing because they are so overcome by the fumes from head up republican butt.

3. Giuliani Says 9/11 Never Happened
http://washingtonindependent.com/73505/giuliani-says-911-never-happened

When partisanship curdles into the malleability of the truth, you get former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani on “Good Morning America”:

“What he should be doing is following the right things that Bush did – one of the right things he did was treat this as a war on terror. We had no domestic attacks under Bush. We’ve had one under Obama,” Giuliani said. “Number two, he should correct the things that Bush didn’t do right. Sending people to Yemen was wrong, not getting this whole intelligence thing corrected.”

We had no domestic attacks under Bush! Except for that really big one where 3000 people were murdered. And then the never-solved anthrax attacks that followed. Except for that, nothing. And “we’ve had one under Obama” — I guess the charitable reading is that he’s scoring Fort Hood a terrorist attack; either that or he’s saying a failed attempt on blowing up Northwest Flight 253 actually succeeded. Giuliani, the noun-verb-9/11 politician, is now a 9/11 denialist.

New York mayor Giuliani 'failed the firefighters killed on 9/11'

Relatives of firefighters killed at the World Trade Center have attacked Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani in a video, accusing him of being responsible for the death of their loved ones.

The video pairing footage of the falling twin towers with charges that the former New York mayor was woefully unprepared for September 11.

The parents and siblings of some of the 343 firefighters killed in the 2001 terrorist attacks released the video with the International Association of Fire Fighters, which opposes Giuliani's candidacy.

Giuliani's campaign denounced the images, saying that the former mayor had a long history of supporting firefighters' health and safety and that the international union releasing the video only supports Democratic presidential candidates.

Fire union officials and family members, repeating claims they had made for months, charged Giuliani pushed for a faster cleanup of ground zero at the expense of finding remains, put an emergency center in a building that collapsed on September 11 and failed to provide working radios for firefighters, making it impossible for them to learn the towers were on the verge of collapse.

"Virtually the whole thing goes back to him with the radios," Jim Riches, a deputy fire chief whose son was killed on September 11, says in the video. "He's the guy on the top, and he's the guy you yell at.

"He takes the hit. And my son is dead because of it."
