October 14, 2001 -- The millionaire Saudi prince whose gift of $10 million for World Trade Center relief was returned by Mayor Giuliani said yesterday that "Jewish pressures" prompted the rejection.
Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal saw his donation to the Sept. 11 relief fund rejected Thursday, after Giuliani said he didn't want the money because of statements the prince made about U.S. foreign policy.

When you state this sort of stuff, it's best to provide some sort of link, no matter how credible or not it is.
Your Al-Qaida and Taliban buddies are already warning their friends about the "next big one"
A spokesman for Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network has repeated threats to carry out new terror attacks and said in a video aired Saturday that Muslims in the United States and Britain should avoid airplanes and tall buildings.
Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, speaking on a videotape on Qatar's Al-Jazeera satellite channel, also accused President Bush, his father, former President Clinton and the prime ministers of Israel and Britain of leading "crusaders" guilty of killing Muslims.
"The blood of those will not be lost in vain, God willing," he said.
The 8-minute statement was the third released by bin Laden's organization since the U.S.-led bombardment against the Taliban and al-Qaida began last Sunday, Oct. 7. Abu Ghaith said in the tape that he was speaking on the fifth day of bombing, which was Thursday.
He said the U.S.-led air assault on Afghanistan has "eradicated entire villages" but did not name them. Abu Ghaith also pledged to stand beside Afghanistan and praised Mullah Mohammed Omar, the supreme leader of Afghanistan's Taliban rulers. He did not mention bin Laden.
Washington has said it is trying to avoid civilian deaths in its campaign, launched to root out bin Laden, the top suspect in the Sept. 11 terror attacks.
"We dismiss it. This is just more propaganda," White House spokeswoman Jennifer Millerwise said Saturday night of the videotape.
Abu Ghaith repeated warnings made earlier this week of more attacks. "When al-Qaida promises, it delivers, God willing," he said.
"The storms will not stop. The storms of planes will not stop until you drag your defeated tails from Afghanistan, not until you raise your hands from the Jews in Palestine, not until you lift the embargo on the Iraqi people, not until you leave the Arabian peninsula, not until you stop supporting the Hindus against the Muslims in Kashmir," he said.
He advised Muslims in the United States and Britain "not to ride planes and not to live in high buildings."
Abu Ghaith, a Kuwaiti who appeared with bin Laden in the first video released by the group Oct. 7, said Bush, his father, Clinton, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and British Prime Minister Tony Blair were "at the head of all the criminals, the Zionists and the crusaders, who have committed the worst practices and greatest atrocities against the Muslim nation."
"Millions of Muslim men, women and children have been killed without committing any sins," he said.
He said al-Qaida had ordered the Americans and British to leave the Arabian Peninsula because the "land will burn with fire under their feet, God willing."
Abu Ghaith denounced Islamic nations, accusing a gathering of foreign ministers from the 56-member Organization of the Islamic Conference this week of "supporting the strike."
"These people do not represent the masses in any way and don't have any legitimacy," he said of the OIC members. The OIC session held in Qatar - which the Taliban had asked to help stop the U.S. air campaign - did not directly condemn the bombing, instead only expressing concern over civilian casualties.
You guys(or gals) are only useful dupes or apologists for the barbarians behind this attack.
Your the Jane Fonda's of the new millenium.

"Look Rabbi Batman, the Jew phone!!"
"Right Robinstien, to the roof. We must alert all the jews in NYC using the Star of David spotlight"
Meanwhile on the plane,
"Ahmed, we must obey Israel".
"Yes, Abdullah, even as we bow to Mecca, my heart thinks only of our beloved Israel whom we obey".

Stop whining. And your attempt to immunize your self against charges of being anti Semitic are friggin pathetic.
{sarcasim}Why do we need evidence to prove a well known fact: The Jews and Israel are either responsible for all the tragic events in the world or know about those events in advance so they can avoid casualities. Last Friday, for example, there was a five car accident near my house. None of the people involved in the accident had Jewish sounding names. I think Israeli agents tipped off the local jewish population to stay away from that particular intersection on 10.12.01 between 4:10 p.m. and 4:20 p.m. Also, last year there was a tragic fire in a nearby city that killed nearly a dozen people. None of the victims had Jewish sounding names. Go figure. {/sarcasim}
He made some ad homonym attacks on Jews. There are many defenders of Jews (and Israel) here. Many who aren't Jewish. Therefore he will be slammed. And deservedly so.
I flagged you because you seemed to be in sympathy with a poster spouting something totally non-sensical and untrue about the WTC attacks.
I'm glad you are now saying you don't agree with him/her, but it wasn't clear from your first post.
The memory of the 5,000 dead of Sept 11 demands that their real killers be given their just recognition(and rewards).
When some conspiratorial whack job blames it on the Jews, he is pissing on the graves of the dead.
Humor Bump
LOL... that's funny stuff!
You try and keep an open mind. I think to myself he gives 10 mill then shoots his mouth off...Okay he made a mistake.
Now this crapolla.
These people are all idiots. Every last muslim from the middle east is full of crap!
They're all idiots.
The Israelis did this! The Israelis did that!
Let me tell you something, the only thing the Israelis have done is totally and completely whooped Arab ass every time they (Arabs) build up enough testosterone to cross the border.
I would be so embarrassed to be an Arab man. Seriously.
For the short duration of my life all they have ever done is talk trash and get their asses kicked.
That's it!
A legacy of asswhoopins lays behind them.
A foundation of getting ****ed up everytime they go toe to toe with anyone. I know the Russians left but give me a break they killed over a million of these idiots compared to thousands.
It occures to me that if anyone on the face of the earth would be trying their damndest to preserve peace it would be these buffoons. War means nothing more then dead Arabs.
It also occures to me that the worst thing they could do is put themselves in a position to be squaring off against someone...anyone.
I wonder what their women think of them as a whole.
Quaddafi got his ass kicked! Hussein got his ass kicked! Now Bin Laden is gonna get his ass kicked!
You'd think that at some point these morons would do the math on this thing.
Screw understanding them! Its high time these goof balls understand us!
....just letting off a little steam.
