Rudy........you are a HELLOFA MAN! God bless you Sir!
I know you are a great, and honorable gentleman Rudy, but (and this is just between us)did the term " and, stick it where the sun don't shine" ever cross your mind?

Grease Rudy's palms with blood money and then blame the USA for the actions of a Saudi murderer. The "Prince"
can stuff it where the desert sun don't shine.
The "Prince" is an ingrate. His fortune is intact due to the US defending his backside from Saddam Hussein and his Baath party thugs who would have taken the Saudi royals to the block for some good old fashioned beheadings.
bin-Laden and his troupe of terrorists hate the corrupt Saudis, as well as America. Once again, Saudi is having its rear protected by American military warriors.
After Iraq, Iran and Syria---perhaps the kingdoms, fiefdoms and assorted emirates of sandcrap ought to be next.

And yes, if Saudi is so worried about the Palestinians, why don't THEY make a homeland THERE in Saudi for them? You don't suppose it could be for the same reason Jews insisted upon having their Israel where it is: claims of 'historical right' (or in religious Jews' case, 'Divine right') to a piece of land? Of course.
Palestinians aren't Saudis any more than Texans or Californians are Brits and would desire to move wholesale or be welcomed in a sovereign nation carved out of England if Texas or California were "returned" to Mexico.
Please take unreasoned, anti-Arab sentiments elsewhere.
To: Anamensis

During the Gulf War Arafat made the mistake of backing Iraq. As a result all the Palestinian workers in Saudi Arabia were expelled. To my knowledge they were never invited back.

Can anyone imagine Hillary turning down the check ?Hillary: "Check? What check? There was no check..."
To: Ceebass
It's not a good point, see my reply to that poster
here.

If not for Israel, The World Trade Center would be standing tall and proud today. Thanks Israel, thanks a hell of a lot. Yes, Israel has been far too restrained with those Palestinians. They give Palestinians more rights than Saudis give their own people. The only thing Arabs seem to understand and respect is complete and utter domination, and Israel has failed to provide the firm clamp-down that the Palestinians obviously need.

RE: ANWR Even better, seize the Saudi and other Gulf oil fields. Nothing would take the windout of the sails of the Muslim extremists (of whom the Wahabbi Saudis are fine examples) than defunding them in this manner. It would also preclude an oil boycott if we have to militarily go after an Arab country like Syria or Iraq for continuing to harbor terrorists.

For the life of me I will never understand the Saudis. We bailed their butts out when Iraq invaded their country, they are on Bin Laden's hit list themselves, yet they have the gonads to come over here and talk that trash. Thank you Rudy for telling him to stick his money where the sun doesn't shine!
To: newzjunkey
No, friend, it's cause no one in the Middle East really gives a @#$% about the Palestinians. They're simply good political leverage. No one (except Jordan) even offers them financial aid that I've ever heard of.
Moreover, the real rub is that Muslims can't stand to see other Muslims living under Jewish rule. Muslims can stand Christians and Jews as long as, as it says in Chapter 9 of the Koran, they live under Islamic rule, live BY Islamic rules, "know themselves to be subdued," and pay an alms tax to the Islamic government.
And I notice you didn't say anything about the observation that Palestinians have more rights under Jewish rule than Arabs have under Islamic rule in most of the other countries in the region. Well, I don't blame you. It's hard to play victim and acknowledge points like that at the same time.
To: afraidfortherepublic
Good for the Mayor. We need to tell them all that the U.S. is not for sail... We also need to do all that we can so that we don't have to be dependent for their oil.

I recall Giuliani once giving the bum's rush to your boy Arafat too. He showed up at some New York function as an FOB, and Rudy told him to beat it.

I've also heard this suggested. Also to keep up the oil flow and sell it till all damages for any terrorist atrocities is paid off - as well as the cost to the US to hold and operate the fields while they are paying off their debt.
That would also give us a known source while developing the ANWR and other US sources.
Way to GO Rudy! Its always nice to see a politician with real principles!
