Rudolf Guillani and Remembrance of things past

In any election, candidates hip shoot, and take like shots during campaigns. In terms of Rudolf Guillani, I assume that he will have his share where there is no need to launch nor field any from here.

But as a resident in lower Manhattan for the past 24 years, I do have a number of questions for Rudolf Guillani, the NYC Mayor of 2001. For me they have gone unanswered; or where questions and answers even more recently mix like oil and water.

Leadership and Judgment Calls: I remiss about 9/11 as having questions for our NYC local leaders. In particular Rudolf Guillani did not adequately answer a few for me. When directly witnessing the tragedy of the WTC Towers down the street from our apartment, my thoughts were that we were being invaded, and that it was a bigger than at Pearl Harbor in 1941. I thought about FDR's speech to congress that morning as the WTC1 followed WTC2 in collapsing:
    FDR to Congress: 'Yesterday, December 7, 1941 -- a date which will live in infamy -- the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan'.
The shock wave reverberated the message that it was war, and we were under attack. Our neighborhood in lower Manhattan was totally dusted. I further questioned if any parked vehicles could have hidden bombs. The police started checking all of them. I was desperately concerned about my family's 'health, safety and welfare'; and even if our children should be on the street, or attend school. Some could say that my wife and I, at the time, were overly cautious about our children. On the news it was either Rudolf Guillani or continuous replays of the tragedies. This went on day after day for months while the fires smoldered; and the smell of tragedy pervaded all of New York. It became an imprint, that even years later, when at night, to sleep in closing your eyes did'nt help.

In terms of being under attack, consider that Halloween is celebrated in NYC as an annual parade every October. Up to a million people attend. In the parade, people are in costumes and on floats. Its like a marti gras parade every year; but takes place at night. I assumed in October 2001, that it would be suspended since 9/11, just a month before with its fires still smoldering less than a mile away, was considered a more a day of 'Infamy' than December 7th, 1941. Two of many questions I have wanted to ask Rudolf Guillani back then, and even now due to his recent CPAC speech where he pointed out that we were not waging a War on Terror, but defending the War of Terror that has been waged on us in 2001, are:
    Why would we have such a public event in October 2001 which occurs less than a mile from 'Ground Zero' that at the time was still smoldering ? Even a participant dressed as Abe Lincoln could have been laced with hidden dynamite. It is as well during every Halloween parade since 2001, an opportune time for taking out upwards of a million participants. In other words, would FDR have done this a month after the 'Day of Infamy' in 1941 as well from less than a mile away?

    Where was his Due Diligence with the Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA) which claimed that the air was all right when considering the amount of microscopic particulate matter that covered the area of New York for months where to this day, although the jury seems to still be out, people have suffered respiratory problems due to it. The there are other questions that the former Mayor Rudy Guillani about 9/11 Human Remains which he should address.


In Retrospect,
