9/11 firefighters lash out at Giuliani

NEW YORK CITY firefighters and their families criticised former mayor Rudy Giuliani for his handling of the September 11 terror attacks, in a video released yesterday.

Many firefighters have a history of animosity towards Giuliani, now a leading Republican presidential candidate.

They argue that Giuliani’s administration had failed to provide adequate radios for first responders at the World Trade Center and remain angry at his decision to speed removal of the enormous pile of rubble at Ground Zero, cutting back the size of the group searching for remains.
