Petition: http://TheRealRudy.org/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 NYFD 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.

4. Oh there are many answers....
Rudy is:

A liar

A phony

A criminal

A failed mayor with the blod of hundreds of firefighters on his hands.

That's just for starters.

2. ...and why did the asshole relocate the Office of Emergency Management headquarters in the WTC...
that had already been bombed before--and the same group specifically threatened to target it again.

Oh yeah, he's a greedy fucking idiot--he awarded the contract to set it up in twin towers in return for a big campaign contribution.

3. Radios ordered from Motorola, no bid contract, no field testing. I don't
blame the firefighters for being angry.

7. A 14 million dollar no-bid crony failure that cost scores, if not hundreds of lives.
And Giuliani sat there and lied about it.
