When Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal suggested that the attacks were an indication that the United States “should re-examine its policies in the Middle East and adopt a more balanced stand toward the Palestinian cause”, Giuliani asserted, :”There is no moral equivalent for this [terrorist] act. There is no justification for it... And one of the reasons I think this happened is because people were engaged in moral equivalency in not understanding the difference between liberal democracies like the United States, like Israel, and terrorist states and those who condone terrorism. So I think not only are those statements wrong, they’re part of the problem.” Giuliani subsequently rejected the prince’s $10 million donation to disaster relief in the aftermath of the attack.

Only the baaaaaad things about Rudy should be posted, dontcha know?

Rudy is my pick too, and it is based upon decisions like the $10M check being returned. I simply do not see any other modern candidate doing the same.

Of course, Rooty’s “selfless” actions had “NOTHNG” to do with voting blocs, campaign contributions, and his political ambitions.

Thanks... I always thought that was one of Rudy’s more asinine, yet politically cunning, statements.
