Talking about the Saudi prince who gave a $10 million check to New York City, but suggested that U.S. foreign policy spurred the attacks, Giuliani said he had a bad feeling about the prince.

He said because the check was to the families, and not to the city, he felt he ought to check with some other figures before rejecting it. He said he spoke to the Police and Fire Commissioners. “They were a police officer and a firefighter before they became commissioners, and you can imagine the language they used when they told me what I could do with the check… I decided to speak to some of the families, and one woman, who had lost her husband a few weeks earlier, told me, ‘My husband would consider this blood money.’ I never had a family say anything to be about accepting the check, and this said to me the American people get this.”

“The Palestians have to say, and acknowledge, and mean it, that Israel has a right to exist as a Jewish state. Israel has already negotiated its existence. That’s over. It’s time for them to move on.”

“I don’t know if you’ve noticed this about the Democratic debates, they never use the term ‘Islamic terrorism.’ They have a very hard time getting those words out of their mouths. They think it’s somehow politically incorrect… I don’t know who exactly they think they’re offending. When I say it, I’m not offending all Muslims or all of the Arab world. I’m offending who I want to offend.”

It’s Rudy’s kind of crowd, and judging from the applause, he did well.
