A prominent advocate for 9/11 victims is cautioning that last year’s devastating Palisades fire could lead to deadly respiratory illnesses for thousands — in a crisis as big as the aftermath of the 2001 terrorist attacks in New York City. Michael Barasch, an attorney who represents thousands of 9/11 first responders and survivors, blasted California officials for not doing nearly enough to warn residents of the dangers of breathing in fumes from the raging, deadly blaze last year. “We know how dangerous the LA wildfires were, and not once did they tell the citizens, wear respiratory protection, get out of Dodge,” he told The Post in an interview Wednesday.
