Sure, Rudy...sure.
Saw a story on F&F this AM, that the NY powers rfuses to allow a Greek Ortho church to rebuild.
Do we see a patern is this madness?
The man can articulate a position as well as anybody.
Well said, Rudy...magritte
“...”decent Muslims” will not be offended ...”
.
Giuliani still doesn’t get it — “decent Muslims”, whatever that means, should be up in arms with those who object to the building of a mosque near Ground Zero.
WHERE ARE THEY????
this thing is much more than a mere mosque. it is 15 stories and is a ‘cultural center’. there is no need for that near ground zero.
they can pray anywhere and few woould mind. why have a flop-house training center in lower manhattan?

"Restricting access to Mecca and Madinah is intended to provide a place of peace and refuge for Muslim believers and preserve the sanctity of the holy cities. At this time, millions of Muslims visit the cities each year, and additional tourist traffic would simply add to the congestion and detract from the spirituality of the pilgrimage visit.

I think New York should be declared a "sacred city":
Restricting access to Ground Zero site to non-Muslims is intended to provide a place of peace and refuge for victims of Muslim violence and their loved ones and preserve the sanctity of a site bathed by the blood of 3000 innocent souls. At this time, millions of non-Muslims visit New York each year, and additional tourist traffic would simply add to the congestion and detract from the spirituality of any visit.
Rudy showed he had “cojones” ( to quote Sarah Palin ) when he turned down a $10 Million donation from Saudi Prince Al-Walid Bin Talal after 9/11, when the Prince said that the USA has to examine its policies in the Middle East, which caused September 11th to happen.
He in effect told the Prince to take his money and shove it down his (you know what).
Later, Democratic Congresswoman, Cynthia Mckinney shows us how much spine she has when she published an open letter to the Saudi Prince, in which she wrote of her disappointment at Giuliani’s action and stated,
“Let me say that there are a growing number of people in the United States who recognize, like you, that U.S. policy in the Middle East needs serious examination...Your Royal Highness, many of us here in the United States have long been concerned about reports by Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch that reveal a pattern of excessive, and often indiscriminate, use of lethal force by Israeli security forces in situations where Palestinian demonstrators were unarmed and posed no threat of death or serious injury to the security forces or to others”
We need a massive Tea Party on this site that involves throwing large amounts of pork products before it’s too late.
Someone’s all in...; Rudy finally says something, then a story about his daughter shoplifting is front page next day?
Folks in the store saying... ‘He had a daughter, I just remember the chunky son?’.
No wonder he hasn’t commented up to now.
Mayor Mike should focus his hacks on cleaning up his double-dipping aides scandal (paying six figures on the side for their ‘non-official’ work, hmm). But why bother, he’s rich, he can buy a seat, stay as long as he wants, tell you what to eat and you can’t do a thing about it.
