The REAL Rudy: Radios

Rudy Giuliani is running for office on how he handled 9/11 and here we have proof positive that firemen were killed because his administration did not fix the long-standing (since 1993!) problems with the radios.

This BNF investigative report calls attention to four key questions about Rudy's handling of the broken radios from firemen's families and experts:

  • Why was nothing done to improve FDNY radio performance for seven years after a clear need was demonstrated in the 1993 World Trade Center attack?
  • When new radios were finally ordered, why did the city block other companies besides Motorola from bidding on the contract?
  • Once Motorola was given the contract, why did its cost jump from $1.4 million to $14 million?
  • Why were these new radios never tested?

These questions should and must be investigated.  New York City councilman Eric Gioia has the power to begin an investigation.  If we can garner enough attention and signers, we have a major opportunity to help launch an investigation.

UPDATE: Digby nails it.  And more from The Daily Gotham and DailyKOS.

    I just saw this on you tube about the motorola radio problem. Did any body think that the problem wasn't the radios, but with the repeater that the radios were using at the time of the attack of the twin towers. Does any body know were the communication repeater were kept in New York City, or were they in one of the towers, maybe in the one with the antenna on it. By those planes cashing into the tower, the repeater for the FDNY would lost power. That would cut communication between the fire fighters. That's why fire fighters didn't hear the command to get out. But seven years before the attack, the radios didn't work, but didn't motorola have close relationship with New York City? Why didn't New York City have a service contact with motorola? I hope New York City can solve this problem with motorola soon. I wish the best for those who lost friend and family in the 9/11 attack.

    Rudy Giuliani is living in a permanent state of hubris and false, shameless behavior and has NO PLACE even being considered by the American people as a potential candidate for The Presidency.

    Widow's son:

    This of course assumes that you realize that homeland security is working for overseas dominance of the American public. Also being run by sell-out New Yorkers and other gangsters from the east coast. Don't believe me? Look at the names and slab of shit running the department. They would sell their own mothers to purchase a hooker for the night. Any of them. Where did we find them. In the sewers next to the sewer called New York.

    I will contact you on some product though. Interesting biz you have.

    Widow's Sonofa:

    Spare us the importance of this two bit thief in a two bit waste of flesh city like New York. Everybody knows by now that the towers were used to take your rights and sell you out to the British, so they could tax us into depression for them to pay for their failing banking system that needs the U.S. sell-out politicians to exist. Now, go figure on how to correct this without dpending on anybody to count the votes. They are not planning on counting any of your votes, and probably never have.

    Find your own methods to help your fellow countrymen, but don't be fooled into thinking your government can help you do anything other than part with your hard earned money, and give it to their offspring. This is referred to as the State of Wisconsin's Governmental do nothing good procedures. Here they have overspent for so long, they refuse to even allow tort claims to pay for medical care, tort claims pay medical malpractice claims, failed to force insurance companies to pay on any claims, and have tried to and succeeded in stealing Federal funds from welfare and funneled it into the Democrat governor's pockets for re-election. Keep your eyes open, because this time the thieves have Homerland security to protect them and their offspring, so they are full speed ahead on unaccountable spending and thieving.

    Kristen:

    You have no idea what politics put Goolianeo in power, but vote for anybody that makes you feel smarter. Just feeling smarter may be the highlight of your intellectual pursuits.
  • Robert Kunferman
    OK FOLKS:

    I will do this for you one more time. I suggest that you try to find a book called: "Creature From Jeckyl Island", I think by Griffith.

    Goolianio is a two bit X-Federal Attorney, which should tell you something about the integrity of the Dept. of Justice(even with the stinking Mexican discident gone). Goolianio is just an all around rotten piece of typical government shit. And, You can't polish a turd. He is basically another east coast gangster, but compared to other New Yorkers, at least he was born in the U.S..

    My point is that if you think he is the only foriegn tool from New York or Chicago running for election and willing to do the Rockefellar taxing the poor bit, your dead wrong. this book I recommend is difficult to find; you won't find it in a library; and it explains the Federal Reserves corrupt foriegn tool status, and the rockefellar dynasty that again wants to raise your taxes and provide absolutely no government benefit in return. Actually thay want to take more of your property rights away, and any politician that won't play along will be ex-communicated by the press.

    Hillary and Bill are both sell-outs to this conspiracy, and it also shows that it has been confirmed that the Lusitania was left unguarded before WWII, so that the Germans would hit the ship, and sinki it as they did, with Americans on board, so as to get them behind the WWII war effort. There is no question that British trash like Chuchill called off the protection of that ship, and no question it was done to allow Americans to be killed.

    Bill Clinton's role was to limit the voice in the press, so that you ignorrant fools(no offense) would have only those few dishonest outlets left to base your opinions on. It seemed to have worked, and was likely the final nail in the coffin for your inalienable rights, since it appears none of you have burned or blown up anything in protest of the traitors running our government.

    Hillary is networked so deep into these forign controlled freaks that there may be no way we can expect our votes against her to count. Nobody counts any votes here anyway, so she may be the same not lessar of two New York evils we may have to accept as the next tool used to tax us to our graves and give us nothing in return. Notice how she can say nothing new, just claim that we need more government spending, taxes, and less services for those paying the taxes. We already have more taxes and more government, and far less benefit from government than any other nation in the world, unless you start counting short lived third world nations.

    Your all still waiting for the press to do your talking for you. Silly Wabbits. it is really easy to find the history that tells you that your politicians are corrupt and on the take to sell you out of all of your rights. All of them, especially the two bit ones that relocate to another state full of non-american voters to vote them into the Senate(O'Bamma the Kenyan dissident and Hillary the chicken plucker skank)

    Just skip reading Creature From Jeckyl Island, and view the photos instead. they are an accurate historical portrayal of how a handful of rich Americans were forced to do banking and business with British firms, and Alan Geenspans role in creating our dependence on forign run banking.

    Goolianio is just a small time thief and corrupt penny anti-X-government flunky that used to be in your corrupt department of justice, that is even more corrupt now. A bunch of thieving cowards actually.

    Read it and weep, fuckers. Too bad it is true. really too bad. Now, find anybody with a British accent here and remember Valley Forge.
  • In response to Scott's comment posted 22 hours ago:

    Scott, I think you're 100% RIGHT. Rudy was part of a bigger plan to eliminate the evidence. I have a bad feeling that if Rudy does win, it's a reward for what he did to keep the lid shut on 9/11 evidence. Why else would he get rid of the steel beams so quickly if not to hide the evidence of the explosives? People who think that 9/11 was NOT an inside job are under estimating the power of our government. The CIA has overthrown democracies, monarchies, communists etc. We developed the stealth bomber, stealth fighter, nuclear weapons and yes - the internet. What makes US think that our government cannot plan 9/11? They have every resource at their disposal. You think that dark elements within the government can't keep secrets? Who are we kidding? Scott, I applaud you for taking your stand and not being afraid to speak your mind.
  • I never thought someone else felt the way I did about Giuliani until I found this site. I was in midtown during the attacks and could not figure out what Rudy was doing walking down the street when he should've been in his so-called Command Center. Rudy did NOTHING during 9/11. He used 9/11 as an opportunity to start his own security firm (ironic) and now wants to run for President? The fact that he's even running proves that our media (CNN MSNBC FOX etc) are keeping us IN THE DARK about our candidates.
  • Robert Kunferman
    It appears that waking up in anything less than a confused state of mind is something that Americans find difficult to do.

    They don't even count the votes until after they tell you who you voted for. And have not for at least fifteen years or more.

    Grow-up, and make sure when you sit on a jury that you don't find your fellow peasants guilty of anything, even if they are demopublicans or republicrats.

    If government people are ever brought to trial for anything (rare), then find them guilty and suggest the maximum.

    we need accountability for government sell-outs that work for foriegn intersests.
  • I just wish you people would vote for Ron Paul as the IRS is putting me into bankruptcy. Ron Paul is a straight shooter. He has is act together. Get scum like this Rudy guy OUT OF THERE. I am amazed that somebody hasn't done a drive-by to this guy yet for what he did to all of these poor firefighters. All this loser cars about is getting kick-backs from people all over. TOTAL SCUM!!
  • Please would someone do a video on Rudy's Ties to the Terror Sheik?

    It's a bombshell story that needs your expert touch.

    The source material, as usual, is Wayne Barrett; he's written an excellent piece in the Village Voice (11/27/07).

    I took a stab at creating a picture that is worth 5,000 words;

    http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/11/29/12...

    but BNF needs to do a proper video to get the story across.

    Thanks.

    Rudy Giuliani is despised by New Yorkers because of his failures and exploitations.He couln"t get elected Dogcatcher in New York City even if he was running against Michael Vick. read this article about the real Rudy: www.dailykos.com
  • What can you say about a guy who finds it "extraordinary" that anyone should draw a connection between an aggressive foreign policy and the incitement of extremist anger abroad? I know I would be delighted to have my hometown bombed, my nation blockaded and its free elections overturned by a benevolent hegemon. Those terrorists are just born evil!

    Rudy's such a deep thinker he has yet to acquaint himself with the retaliation concept. He'll put our troops in harm's way for no good reason--just as he did with the New York firefighters. By all means, let's vote for him for president!
  • M
    As for Rudy's adultery, I really don't give a damn about it because it has no bearing on whether he'd make a good president. Many CEO's of successful corporations have affairs and still do a great job. The only reason the adultery is an issue at all is that it's hypocritical for all those right-wing 'Christian' conservatives who hated Clinton because of that affair to now support Guiliani and look the other way. Totally hypocritical! The whole Clinton impeachment was utter BS. It was never anyone's business besides Hillary's. But for those self-righteous people to get all worked up about it, and now they accept Giuliani, who was WORSE (actually LEFT 3 wives!) is just totally hypocritical.
  • M
    Andrew: I understand how you feel. I felt the same way a couple of years ago, when I couldn't find a single reputable scientist to back up the conspiracy theories. However, since then, the grassroots truth movement has made great strides in their research. Nearly 1000 reputable scientists, physics engineers, architects, pilots, firefighters, intelligence and military officers have banded together, in agreement about the evidence. Physical evidence PROVES that all 3 towers (including WTC7, which was NOT hit by an airplane) collapsed due to controlled demolition. Andrew, once you look at the new research done by scientists at prestigious universities, and read the reports by intelligence officials, and watch the testimonies of eyewitnesses who heard bombs in the basement BEFORE the 1st plane hit, you will agree that the evidence is incontrovertible. Yes, there are some people out there who really are 'kooks' but here are the sites that have 100% authentic, scholarly research:
    http://www.patriotsquestion911.com/
    http://www.ae911truth.org/
    Watch Richard Gage's 12-point presentation on the FACTS - it's pure science, and you only need a basic elementary-school-level understanding of science to get it. Also this is the best book, completely debunking the debunkers, point by point:
    http://www.amazon.com/Debunking-11-Mechanics-De...
    If you are honest, you will investigate the newest research on this issue.
  • countdown2009
    andrew, are you a total idiot or just a giuliani shill? was rudy mayor when the contract to Motorola was awarded? YES. did those radios fail? YES. did they revoke the contract and return to the old radios (dinkins supplied or not)? YES. so YOUR arguments are idiotic. put the kool aid down and wake up you f**king loser.
  • Andrew
    This website and its claims are complete bullsh*t. Do you want me to start enumerating your arguments and striking them down one by one? First off, discard any individual who tries to pass off this farce that 9/11 was an inside job. If you fell for that "losse change" junk then I am scared for the future leaders of this nation. They lose credibility off the bat. In response to the radio argument, these radios were in issue prior to Giuliani's term under Dinkins. Giuliani nt opening the market for other radios has no link to him not caring about the quality of radio FDNY used. Additionally, nobody could possibly have predicted passenger airliners flying into the Trade Center Towers. Do not let conspiracy theorists convince you that we could have predicted the disaster firsthand. Giuliani prepared New York City for disaster as well as any mayor in the modern era. Thankfully we have no weighing standard to fully judge him by in other cities because no other attacks have occurred.

    People moan about his adultery when the "heroe" of the modern Democratic party partook in the most infamous affair in White House history and his jaded wife now leads the Democratic ticket in 2008. The location of the command center at the WTC does not matter at all. Emergentcy response to the disaster was effective, almost too much with the firefighters stuck in a collapsing structure. The buildings were coming down regardless of any efforts and those above the floors struck by the planes were unfortunately beyond rescue. Every event needs its nsysayers to throw doubt on what is perceived. Hindsight is 20/20. Any mayor could have made mistakes in such predicament. New York City should consider itself lucky at that time to have elected a strong leader to resurrect his city from the rubble. I agree with WM about the mental health investment for those radicals who make truly unconvincing arguments against Giuliani. These people make me sick. Many people claim Giuliani utilizes 9/11 to his advantage, but in fact these naysayers use the event as a way to attack Giuliani ad hominem and spread their radical feelings.

    Hey anonymous - If you were given a choice between a raise and new radios, which would you take? This makes it the firefighter's fault? Clinton was in office 9 months and a US Senator with no jurisdiction over NYFD. Rudy was mayor for 8 years and NYFD was his direct responsibility. Rudy will probably become President because the scared, ignorant and stupid like you outnumber the rest of us. Forget campaign finance reform, how about a minimum IQ test for voter registration?

    Rudy, Bush and Cheney should all be investigated. Rudy was too busy kissing Motorolas heinie to care about the safety of the firefighters. I guess Motorola should be held accountable also. I don't know how some people can live with themselves. Goerge Bush should be investigated and then impeached along with Cheney. I have no idea who to vote for but I do know this country is in a big ole mess. And I sure feel sorry for whoever is going to have to inherit the mess left behind. I feel so bad for the family's of 9/11. I don't know how I would react to hear Rudy spout all he did on that dreadful day. When in fact it was because of him and Motorola so many firefighters perished. And now he is running for president on his record of 9/11. Has he absolutely no shame? This story must get out and get published on every television and radio show. This country must know who and what he is. I had no idea till I read some these messages just how dangerous he is. And I thought Bush was dangerous. Bush is dangerous and Rudy is cut from the same cloth. Lord help us all.

    Again, the Saudis have agreed that they will sell us oil at a less than threshold price. They have been doing that, but we claim(falsely) that this is not enough production.

    The rest about Goolianeieio, is simply a worthless distraction. Ask Hillary or OBama to commit to anything real. Anything.

    Neither will commit to making laws that prevent us from being in another colonialization in the future. And neither will admit that there is no way to have universal health care where citizens who have an average wage of less than $20,000 per year can pay for medical services for each other. the cost is just way to high to have universal care. You have to get insurance out, and limit doctor's fees.

    Hind-Sight is almost always 20/20. Welcome to "supply-side government". Most American officials on both the Local and Federal levels and from both sides of the Isle have found wonderful new scape-goats in the form of "independent contractor's". This is the ultimate get out of jail free card! What do the voters expect from a system that has no bid multi-billion dollar contracts (to rebuild Iraq, har, har, har) and is off shoring much of our MILLITARY HARDWARE!??? I'm all for "Fair Trade" and helping out the peoples in the third world. However, Reagan, Bush, Giuliani's philosophy is about to put us in third place behind China and the Soviet... I mean Russia. Bush's indifference to Bin Ladin's threat and Rudy's indifference to our bravest safety are but symptoms of a far worse disease. This is also something to keep in mind as America moves forward with the health care disaster and almost too much to name. It’s really time to take off the rose colored glasses America.

    It is about time that the real message that Rudy is a fraud is getting out there.

    Joe Biden's description of him as a "noun,a verb and 9/11"is not only accurate but apt,however it suggests that he is some benign idiot when in fact his obsession with power makes him equally dangerous as he distorts the facts time and time again!

    Rudy is not fit to be in office. He is a created hero who has caused the death of many firemen in New York City on September 11th. Motorola and he need to be held accountable for their acts. Motorola played dirty politics and their products are to be avoided. Guiliani was deep in their pockets. No other bidders for contracts? Why was the price raised after awarding the contract? Why was the product not tested? Why the recall? Why the replacement with radios who had been proven not to work? Why did so many firemen die? Why Rudy, why????????????????????

    Reply to Scott:
    If you have so much evidence, then sue these people yourself, you freaken BS artist twit. I have had more cases kicked out of federal court than you have paid or educated yourself to bring. That is our system.

    If you have the guts to risk paying the other side(s) legal fees if you lose, go ahead and pay the $500.00 plus filing fees and start your journey.

    If your puke ass did half of the work I do for free, you and we would not have idiots from the demapublicans or the republicrats in office paid for by overseas interests.

    I am not an attorney, so for me it means learning a new field that is of no direct use to me.

    The architects and engineers weighed in on it already, and none dared tell the truth, because that is the first thing they learned in college. Don't tell the truth if it interferes with who butters your bread.

    I don't need to speak to any engineers. No aircraft debris on the Whitehouse lawn is good enough for me to suspect a coup. Ride it out, and see what it brings.

    The real problem is the enormous bill being passed to us non-government tax payers. Those of us who don't receive a perpetual, weekly tax returns at our government do nothing job.

    Otherwise, go fight the good fight and get back to me. I never like hearing from clerks and sissy cooks, and the firemen either got out or they didn't. No concern to me either way. They likely had to pay a fee to the union to get the job in the first place(considering how corrupt NY and NJ are as pay to play states), then the job killed them. Go figure. I would be curious to hear about your efforts. Yours I mean.

    If you breathed thermite, you would not be here, and your autopsy(not that expensive) would reveal it.

    Freaken New Yorkers are more foriegnors and illegal immigrants than anything else. And those are the good guys. The rest work for overseas concerns. Read.

    When you vote the chicken plucker and her fat ass in, I want to hear how well the country is run by foriegnors after that. You just need a free do nothing job, so you are worried about losing it and having to actually earn a living. Nothing new here.

    I am around democrats like that all day, and most would love to find a way to run it up my ass. Only, because they don't want to even imagine actually having to work for a living. They want to lie to the selfish children. I don't.
  • DS
    In my opinion I personally believe that Rotten Rudy is guilty of malfeasance and willfully allowing politics to endanger those that were/are willing to protect us....
    The only thing that will bring this out in the open is an independant investigation from a third party source.....
    However, Rudy, like anyone of us, has a right to have a proper investigation performed to prove his guilt or innocence.
    Anyone that makes a blanket statement that he is guilty or innocent should go to their room now!
    I admit that it is hard to think that Rudy is innocent of being a political hack, no different than those in the White House. Now, he, like those in DC have a right to as fair an investigation as possible.
    This 7 minute film brief should be a start to just that.

Both of those Police Commissioners were simply too good for their own good because Rudy saw them as competition, and getting credit for a job well done. Rudy wanted that credit for himself.

    The radios were built by Motorola as are the new post office scanners. Each and every carrier now carries these devises. The post office is a huge government agency and the biggest employer in the US. How much money did the government fork out for these? How did Motorola get that contract?
  • Brad Starkey
    Im not sure if any radio would or could work through steel and concreat over 100 floors but I do know their is a way it could be fixedan intercom system just for ER so if their is a get out call they could get out the police got out. How could they do it but not the fire dept. and why does all most every cop car and ER rescue Dept have Motorola radios and why are they crap
    I also call for a invesagation in to this and how the bid went from 1million to 14million no questions asked or ansewered????

    I have to admit that I have seen some Vagina that I would kill for. Actually about one a day. Leave it at that.

    Oh yeah, I forgot, Blame it on Blackwater! Must have been Blackwater. Who else could bring down two towers with nothing but radios that never even existed. Those whiley bastards.

    Fuck, and I thought for sure I was nuts. I got nothing on these guys. Unless you suggest that Shrub and crazy Cheney planned this with the drooling driveler on the radio to not have radios. I would imagine that they are all so full of shit and wind that they could have just blown the buildings over and cemented them in with corn enforced crete mixed with dead gangsters and torture vivtims from CIA operations in South America and.......

    Must have been the radios, Your right.

  • Peter Ross
    Giuliani was a fraud as prosecutor too - taking credit for the works of others for his own benefit.

    His greatest stupidity was placing the Control Center in the WTC against expert advice to place it in a bunker in Brooklyn, where it is now. This blunder, made to bolster his own ego, contributed to the failure of fire department communications on 9/11.

    In addition, he insisted on having the rubble from the WTC site removed even before all the lost firefighters (and other victims) from the WTC were found, so their bodies now reside in the dump to where the 9/11 rubble was taken and the possibility of recovery of the bodies forever made impossible.

    Rudy was also complicit in the scam to lie about the air quality.

    We know who was responsible for September 11, 2001 and we permitted the Pakistanis to allow their sponsor to escape into the mountains. We also spoke nary a word to the Saudis who have been exporting Wahabi'ism for the past few decades and from whose country most of the hijackers came. However, the issue is also what could have been done to either prevent the attack or minimize the losses: a misplaced communications headquarters, poor communications equipment, etc. caused additional losses. How is that we are expected to revere Giuliani's leadership during a crisis, but not hold him responsible for any of the failures of his administration and/or his administrators under his authority that day? All the congratulations, but none of the responsibility? Then to lie to the citizens of New York that the air quality was fine? Giuliani's last position that he served with some semblance of honor was as a Democratic prosecutor, since then he is a carefully crafted image that will not withstand scrutiny as the election nears. Unfortunately I have no doubt that the lesser Republicans wil nominate a candidate who will seize defeat from the jaws of victory and that Republicans will circle the wagons around their nominee by November 2008 and emerge victorious again.
  • Robert Kunferman
    That is my anonymous post above in reponse to the Mariner guy. Sorry folks.
  • Philip
    Giuliani was disliked in NYC prior to September 11, 2007. Like Bush, he has championed his leadership during and after the event and should be held accountable for poor adminstrative decisions. Truthfully though, I am weary of it all. While Iraqi civilians and US and Iraqi soldiers are dying daily, the spineless Democrats want to pass a resolution condemning the Ottoman Empire for genocide committed almost one hundred years ago. What next an inquiry into the environmental damage done by Krakatoa? The genocide perpetrated against the Armenians should have been condemned well before now, but other than a feel good gesture what good does a resolution do? With our history of slavery and genocide against native Americans, as well as our constant state of warfare, exactly who are we in a position to condemn. Rudy will have to answer for the likes of his good pal Bernie Kerik as the election grows nearer, but we remain without a viable progressive candidate for President. I'm all for holding the Republicans responsible for their fear- and hate-mongering, but can we also have some exposes on the non-opposition party to demonstrate at least some hesitation in rolling over and voting for the lesser of two evils yet again?

    I don't live or work in New York and I signed the petition.
    How much kickback did Giuliani get of the 13 million plus on the contract awarded to Motorola?
    Is that the price he put on all the brave ones who died in this fiasko?
    He should be investigated and along with the head CEO's at Motorola and should be tried and prosecuted for murder of all that lost their lives due to their lack-a-dasey do nothing but make a profit attitudes.
    AMEN and AMEN
  • Yup, he took no bid contracts to broken motorola radios, but that's just the skim of the surface! Why isn't the toxic dust coverup (that has killed more people than the 9/11 attacks) mentioned whatsoever? What about how he took firefighters off the ground zero pile after they excavated the gold for the Bank of Nova Scotia, then put 9/11 victims in a landfill that's now being used to fill potholes in New York City? You missed some EXTREMELY CRITICAL FACTS about his command base. He had a brand new command base setup for him THE DAY BEFORE the attacks (convenient timing huh?). Furthermore, the building that his command base was in, WTC7 symmetrically collapsed that afternoon at the speed of freefall into its own footprint. Larry Silverstein even admitted that he made the decision to "pull it" with the fire department, admitting to a deliberate controlled demolition of the building. How did they get all the bombs in there for that in just one afternoon? That's not something that you just decide at a split second. Usually Michael Griswald's films are excellent, but I'm afraid to say that this one is a bit of a whitewash :-/ You could have done A MUCH BETTER JOB!
  • anonymous
    Giuliani was involved in the conspiracy of 911. There were no planes on 911. CNN composited that footage of a plane hitting the WTC tower. How many people noticed there was no shadow on the building created by the plane, or that the plane never broke apart or was just melted into the building?

    Who was at that height who could have possibly recorded the plane at that angle? NO ONE, because it was not REAL. It was a composite image, just like Hollywood. Why was it not questioned? Why, because every news agency, print publication and TV personality was and is involved. 911 was scripted by Stategic Communication Laboratories, and every person took his cue that day, was paid to lie or just believed what was said, myself included, because no one believed everyone would lie to us.

    There were no planes on 911. The other plane aired that strangely jerked and hit the tower was a plane cutout animated on a virtual path created by computer technology. The same computer which creates lines of scrimmage and first down lines for football games. The technology is plotted by a wireframe generated on stationary camera image, which adjusts to perspective. The French came up with this smart bomb technology for the 1st Gulf war in 1991 and it has been refined for a football game. Why not to feed an image to the public to scare us. A logo or a plane cutout can be animated on a virtual path. That plane that was supposed to hit the tower was an animated plane cutout on a virtual path created by LVIS.

    Did you know that you can take a graphic and animate it on a virtual path created by Sportsvision or PVI's LVIS? One can and someone did on 911. That is why the plane appeared to go through the building. The wireframe was not readjusted to fit the camera shot. That small adjustment let it appear that the plane went through the building which was an impossibility. I know there are many who want a real investigation of 911 instead of the fake one performed.

    Giuliani was part of the plan of the NWO to implode the WTC Towers and blame it on bin Laden, who according to a google search says he is dead in foreign publications.

    www.scl.cc is the website of Strategic Communication Laboratories. Go to the site and see what they do. Somehow, when someone puts on their homepage:

    The right bullet can stop a person
    The right bomb can stop a regiment
    The right message can stop [or start] a war,

    we should be worried just what do these people do and did on 911.

    How many people are not outraged that this fake neoconservative, neopagan, New World Order administration hired a British company, Strategic Communication Laboratories to conceive the fake psyop of 911 (New Pearl Harbor). Those buildings were imploded, people were paid to say they saw planes. There were no planes on 911. The neoconservative neopagan members of NWO, sacrifice 3,000 citizens to get perpetual war for the occultists, satanists, masons and kaballists in our government, and has not been investigated, nor has had the conspirators put in jail for treason and murder. Giuliani would be in jail, if justice is served for being part of the conspiracy. SCL was the only image that was broadcast on 911.

    If you do nothing else go to:

    www.livevideo.com

    and watch September Clues, 8 videos which compare all video taken from archives of 911 footage to understand there were no planes on 911. IT WAS A PSYOP.

    Strategic Communication Laboratories, London, go to the website:

    http://www.scl.cc/home.php.

    War on Terror is a joke. The CIA is creating the terror and blaming it on Iraqis, Iranians and Afghanis. Giuliani is part of problem, not the solution.
  • The Die Hard
    Giuliani (JulieAnnie, HAH! wait, that's an insult to women) is a pocket-sucking crook. He's incompetent, he's a hypocrite, he's a big-mouth, spineless, poser with absolutely no qualifications except the guy with the machine gun standing behind him. His choice of command locations was political, and his stupidity in not at least assigning some clerk to fix the comm systems is inexcusable. His burying the evidence is suspicious, and his pretentiousness is vomitous. But for krissake, THERE WERE NO BOMBS, AND GET OFF THAT TIN-HAT ROVE-INSPIRED LIE.

    Rodham-Clinton is a loud-mouth, an opportunist, a phony, a slow reader, and a mean bitch, but she's not a traitor, and she's not a coward. If she ends up being the candidate -- gawd, let's hope not -- I'd vote for her over ANY of the criminal traitor idiots the repukelicans are fielding.

    Still, let's hope it doesn't come to that. The Dream Team would be Edwards for president, Obama for VP, and either Rodham-Clinton or Kucinich for SecState.

    Giuliani can either go run Gitmo, or be incarcerated there. Doesn't much matter which.
  • Chris Fletcher
    I'm baffled by Mark Zivin's comment that he appalled by this expose on Juiliani. The tone of the video is disturbing, true, but so is the subject matter. I don't know that Juiliani deserves to be treated "lightly, carefully, and respectfully." I think he needs to treated rigorously. He had many lives in his hands and now he wants to be the ruler of the strongest nation on earth. Does he need a kid glove? This man was failing as Governor before the 9/11 attack and used the event to gain back popularity. He's too shifty for my taste. He doesn't warrant a gentle, light approach.

That sell-out should solve at least fifty percent of our problems, then multiply our efforts to make up for the old problems she recreates for us.

    The whole thing reeked from Day One. NOTHING that was done both prior to and after the "event" can be exempt from suspicion. At least two conflicting stories in answer to every question; confiscated evidence; witnesses not called; whitewashed reports; duplicitous safety declarations. Hey, WE didn't make it this way, THEY DID!

    This criminal knew in advance of 9/11 what was to happen on that fateful and terrible day. His job was to get rid of all the evidence so as an investigation would be impossible later on. But Truth has emerged anyways and he can not escape. He has managed to fool the people on his side but he can not get away with his crime. The blood of the 3000 people massacred under his watch will catch him some day.His is dangerous, he is filthy, he is a liar, he is a mafia godfather. But he is not a hero.

    i'm a big fan of BNF and its message, because i support its agenda (for now). but make no mistake, there is an agenda.

    what happens when the democrats take the whitehouse? will BNF continue to rain fire down on republicans in an effort to ensure single party rule for elections to come (similar to mr. rove's own strategy, reminiscent of the new american century's agenda).

    you've seen sicko - will the dems table a sustainable, equitable system for healthcare? will you hold it against them if they don't?

    you've seen loose change - and i hear voices representing their views in the comments, but no where else. is BNF's afraid that a deeper look into 9/11 will show that the dems are equally involved, and that it could severely fatigue voters into "throwing" their vote (causing another close race between two horses that no one wants to see win)?

    i am proud to say i am not an american, nor have i ever stepped foot on your bloodied soil. but every bad decision you make, the rest of the world has to pay for, and frankly, i'm quite sick of it.

    the american people can't make educated decisions if you withhold education from them, and propaganda is NOT education.

    here's my challenge - find one american with a conscience, with the ability to lead and free of the taint of corruption that big business brings with it. find him or her, and using your vast editing prowress - lead that candidate to the whitehouse.

    good luck, because i don't think anyone in either house fits that bill.

    I figured out that terrorists were going to crash airplanes into the World Trade Center and targets in DC in January of 2001 when George W. Bush took the oath of office. So many clues came together that it was only too obvious to me. I even guess the date! But I could never find anyone to listen to me. I sincerely, believe that the powers that be allowed the events of 9/11 to happen to consolidate their power. The Project for a New American Century has been trying to gain such power for a long time. With the memos and reports George W. Bush and his cronies had they should have been taking serious action in August 2001, instead Bush went on vaction. I am NOT nor have ever been a Democrat. So this ain't just sour grapes. The current Republicans in charge are destroying this country and I don't have much hope that the Dems can do anything - they are too disorganized. I am sick and tired of being called a "left" or accused ob being a Democrat whenever I bring up the truth about Republican failures and corruption. My family were members of the GOP for generations! But the GOP is no longer representing the interests of anyone in the center. Corruption and stupidity are not the sole characteristics of Democrats as the current batch of Repbulicans has demonstrated. I'd throw them all out.
    PS I knew about GW Bush planning to invade Iraq since October of 2000 and the disaster that would follow - no one wanted to listen to me then either.

  • I've sent the following message to BNF, and am including it here for therealrudy.org visitors:

    Dear BNF,

    Thank you for this latest investigative report. As "devil's advocate", a few questions spring immediately to mind after viewing this video:

    1. Did personnel using the motorola radios conduct their own "unofficial" field testing of the radios (if so, inclusion of that fact may add to Giuliani's negligence, if not I'm left wondering "why not?")?

    2. Why do reports like this, extremely powerful in content, never seem to be included in mainstream media reports (if they have, I haven't seen them - if they haven't, would you mind investigating ABC, CBS and NBC to help us understand why BNF's reports aren't headlined)?

    3. Are petitions signed by non-NYC residents valid in NYC?

    Thank you again for your diligence.

    Sincerely,

    Harry Governick

    I signed the petition. Though I do not live in NYC now, I worked in NYC from 1988-92 and lived in the Tri-State area (NY/NJ/CT) for much of the decade that followed. This candidate runs on 9/11 as if he were a savior. The truth needs to come out, because it involves the business of government and the preparedness of important first responders to any major crisis.
  • jerry s. reyes-
    I've always felt this guy was as phony as GWB. He wants to run as Republican yet he takes positions that are anything but republican.Enough with phonies. We tried this guy from Crawford and he proves to be an embarassment to the country
  • B MATHEWS
    RUDY ALSO CLAIMED HE SPENT AS MUCH TIME AT GROUND ZERO AS THE RESCUE WORKERS DID WHEN IN REALITY HE SPENT MORE TIME IN THE DAYS AND WEEKS FOLLOWING 9/11 AT YANKEE STADIUM (WHERE HE WAS RECENTLY BOOED BY FANS). SINCE THEN HE HAS TRAVELLED AROUND THE COUNTRY GIVING PAID SPEECHES AND MAKING MONEY OFF THE TRAGEDY. HES A SNAKE IN WOMENS CLOTHING AND WOULD BE LIKE BUSH ON STEROIDS.
  • Betsy Stewart
    Why didn't anyone hear the voices of protest during Giuliani's hearing? So to add to Bush
    and Cheney co-horts,now one more to be held
    accountable. Meanwhile the victims family's
    are re-living the horror because Giuliani's
    mistake is covered up.When we will the cover
    up stop?
  • b mathews
    YOU FORGOT TO MENTION THAT AS SOON AS THE GOLD AND SILVER WAS RECOVERED FROM THE WTC, RUDY STOPPED ALL RECOVERY OF BODIES AND SENT THE REST TO A GARBAGE DUMP.
  • Bill
    I agree with all the comments; but in addition to Giuliani administration, I want to know what the FDNY leadership was doing. I am a little familiar with how city contracting is done and I am pretty sure there was procurement committee with representatives all the affected departments in charge of writing the bid, overseeing and evaluating the responses, and awarding the contract. So was there such a committee? If so, what were the FDNY representatives doing?
  • Dan Noel
    Sure, Giuliani is uncaring and incompetent; he would never last in any respectable private sector outfit, assuming he would get hired at all. But in this respect, he is not really different from the average politician, who is much more capable of getting a job than of actually performing it.

    Our fellow contributors who lambaste him, and rightly so, for his probable complicity in 9/11, ought to keep in mind that no presidential candidate has taken the stance of denouncing 9/11 as the bad-taste farce that any discerning high-school kid knows it to be. For some reason, they don’t want to denounce the deep corruption that directed 9/11’s execution and promise to clean up the Augean stables if elected.

    Also, the fact that Giuliani is ultimately responsible for NYFD’s radio fiasco tells us less about him than about New York’s public services: how do hundreds of public servants put up with that crap? Why don’t they do what people would do in any well-managed corporation: stand up to useless managers and pressure them to either shape up or get out, even at the risk of losing their own jobs? Why do they go along with the corruption and keep their eyes on the prize of their cushy retirements instead?

    Remember that La Guardia could not reengineer New York’s government alone; he had to start with massive firings, and a point could be made that he did not fire enough people associated with Tammany Hall. Giuliani’s role in 9/11 is only a symptom of a much bigger problem, whose resolution requires much more than a presidential change.
    So, fine; together with Brave New Films, let’s get Giuliani off the short list of top presidential candidates. But there will still be a long way to go before the U.S. government starts to serve the public.

    Love,
  • Dan Fittro
    This failure of Giuliani to prepare for communications between the FDNY and NYPD is the fault of the IGNORANT media. Do you think any of them are aware of this SNAFU that is being ignored and allowing this LIAR Giuliani to BRAG about what he did for the city after this INSIDE 911 job?? You bet they are...they are IGNORING IT, just as they IGNORE focusing on the LIES of SHRUB BUSH that allowed 911 to happen and then LIE to invade IRAQ. It is all a bunch of HUMAN EXCREMENT!!!!!!
  • caroline
    There is absolutely nothing presidential about Rudy. The idea that anybody could consider this monster in the White House is stomach churning. We can kiss what is left of our
    constitution good bye. I'm passing this video on to as many people as I can.
  • Bob Wallace
    Just what we need: another lying fascist in the Oval Office.
  • Ed Zoeller
    Rudy was DEFINITELY in on the plans (at least some of them, because I'm sure the info was compartmentalized) for 9/11. I think they offered him the presidency in return for his help in destroying and removing the evidence. The joke's on him, because they plan to keep W in office by pulling off another false flag operation, and blame it on Iran, so they can invade that country, and at the same time, declare martial law, and make W the dictator for life. I think that Hillary is their fall-back position, judging by the way that Bill has been pal-ling around with old HW, and Rudy is their alternate fall-back. Hell, they can rig the computer voting machines to spit out any name they want, after you vote. (maybe Howard Stern or O.J. ?
  • john Patriot
    Rudy would be a perfect folliwup to Bush if you're into fascism. This idiot runs on the 911 coattails after totally
    messing it up. These people are dimwitted incompetents.
    And, Rude ee takes great satisfaction in his performance on
    that dreadful day. Just because you mugged for the cameras
    doesn't mean we approve of your lunacy. Keep this clown
    away from the white house, please.
  • Bev Rice
    It is unbelievable that this man is a serious candidate for the highest office in our country.
  • Viewing as I do from outside the borders of your country, I'm outraged that the citizens of your nation have allowed the so-callled 'hero' of 9/11 to have exploited the event as much as he's been so far allowed.

    It's about time for the truth of his actions [inactions, really] be exploited, too.

    Bravo Brave New Films, you're reaching the world and it's as outraged as I about the 'politics as usual' stifling 'liberty and truth' in your once 'free and democratic' land.

    Was compelled to 'vidalopt' the 'vidalidieo' and posted it along with your 'vidaliant' text in an effort to inform my blog friends around the globe who may have missed it. Thanks for the opportunity.

    Wake up America and bring about Peace in all its dimensions...

  • Neil
    On a lighter note, do we want a president that likes to dress in women's clothing? There are some cute pictures of Rudy in a dress that are not at all super-imposed. The presidency is about honor, democrates and republicans can agree on that. Dressing in drag is not honorable.
  • John Ehrenfeld
    If I were the decision maker at the DNC or eventual Democratic nominee's campaign . . . I would run 24/7 ads showing Bush's face morphing into Rudy's face and back to Bush's face, etc. . . with a voice-over that states that with Rudy you will get another Bush . . but smarter, more diabolical. Same policies BUT WORSE!
  • History will determine if it was his actions and omissions as Mayor or Lobbyist which proved more harmful to Americans.

    After he left office in New York, he organized a consulting firm and among others, served the interests of the pharmaceutical industry in at least 2 contexts:

    1. Tried to take the heat off the makers of Oxycontin

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2007/05/10/giulia...

    2. Conducted a study concluding that less expensive medications imported from Canada would be unsafe

    http://todaysseniorsnetwork.com/guiliani_sells_...

    As President, he will be primed to be a cash monsoon for corporate interests of all stripes.
  • Pat Williams
    Guiliani was out on the street with his cameraman on 9/11. He's a publicity hound. He was supposed to be on the job in a crisis, not acting for the cameras while others are left in charge. I don't think he knew the towers would fall or he wouldn't have put himself in harm's way. Recall when Guiliani ordered the West Nile Virus spraying? New Yorkers, including children, were going to the ERs because they were ill from being sprayed on directly. Guiliani's answer was a boast that he had been sprayed on seven times. He did nothing to find out what was happening. It turned out that the helicopter pilot was spraying a concentrated poison that in ten to one diluted form was not to be used closer than one quarter mile from any human habitation. The man doesn't listen.
  • Jerry Bolduc
    While we're at it, maybe we should ask him why he shipped all the evidence off to China as quickly as he did.

    If this investigation into the radios gets started, it could very well lead to new revelations as to what exactly brought those buildings down...particularly WTC #7!

    I can't believe that there hasn't been a serious investigation conducted yet about this massacre.

    I heard Romney say (in answer to a college student's question about the collapses on 9-11) that it isn't surprising that if you take a plane load of jet fuel and put it in those buildings that the resulting fire would melt the steel and the buildings would come down...exactly as they did. Romney said, basically, that he believes the official story about their collapse...BUT he doesn't explain WTC #7...that building wasn't inundated with jet fuel yet it collapsed very neatly into it's own footprint. Why Romney? Explain that one for us, would you?
  • anon
    This video should be sent to the editors of radio magazines like Popular Communications (editor@popular-communications.com),
    CQ (cqletters@cq-amateur-radio.com), and Monitoring Times (editor@monitoringtimes.com), and any other magazines concerned with radio, communications, public safety, and so on.
  • ellen greenberg
    He's Despicable! But it doesn't surprise me. I agree with the last post by Sheila. I do not believe that any of this was an accident and I have long suspected that rudy was in on it, as I know the W administration was. Rudy had an emergency command center set up at 7 world trade center (the 3rd building brought down that day), but never used it! Why? What did he know? For anyone who has not seen the 3 videos entitled 'demolition' parts 1,2,+3-you MUST go to the website 911weknow.com and enter the site, and then download the 3 demolition videos on the left.
    After you spend that hour and a half, you will have no doubts about what really happened that day and why over 3,000 americans really died. Bottom line, this administration needed a pearl harbor to get us to iraq-for oil and profiteering. The buildings were not brought down by those planes, but by pre-planned demolition. It's hard to face, but harder to ignore..and I believe those families shown in your video deserve to know what really happened to their loved ones and why. I hope as more and more people view this, we will be able to have enough of a ground swell to finally do something..impeach and punish those who deserve it and elect only those whose motives we can trust. NO MORE OIL MEN IN CHARGE!!!!!
  • Jerome F
    Do we need another IDIOT like Bush? F---K NO!!
  • Cynthia Timko
    If these allegations are true, this is certainly not someone we want as president of this country. I think the American elrctorate needs to know...
  • Doreen Dunton
    Thank you, Brave New Films, for, once again, opening our eyes, our ears and our consciousness to the real Rudy Giuliani: a politician motivated by greed, hubris, and power. He's not "America's Mayor" as he and his followers like to portray him. He's a fraud!
  • Soni
    He is running on his handling of 9/11. If we do not want another disastrous, grandstanding liar in the White House, we must act now. We can't afford another 4-8 years of one who makes up the truth as he goes along. Between 9/11 and the useless bloodshed since, we've already lost too many good souls on all sides. We don't need another Bush, and since we have a Congress which won't impeach, it is more important than ever that we know what we are getting.
  • We hear a firefigher's dad asking "why is there such a deep unwillingness to find out the truth?'' This applies to all of 9/11. It's the biggest cover-up in history. 9/11 was an inside job, and the media won't touch it with a ten foot pole.
  • Francine Shacter
    Guiliani has selected his role in 9/11 as the defining point for his career. It is, therefore, fair for us to find out what he really, really did - and that's what this investigation is all about.
  • I think if Rudy becomes president, finally maybe the trains will run on time! As a choreographer, I'm excited by the prospect of perhaps designing a new form of salute and a new style of march. I also see this as a boon for traditional artists, what with the thousands of Rudy statues to be placed at major intersections and the many wall-sized paintings to be commissioned of Rudy standing reasurringly before blazing skyscrapers.
  • Loretta Rosa
    I live in New York City.
    The real Rudy, is a cold blooded pig.
  • Polderjongen
    Rudy lauded the firefighters because of their "willingnes to stand their ground". So, by implication, he thinks the cops were cowards because they cut and ran.

    Nice job, Rudy. Nice job.
