Rudy Giuliani, JD - WTC Muslim Center

WTC MUSLIM CENTER

Rudy Giuliani, JD Biography
Title:	former Mayor of New York City
Position:	Con to the question "Is It Appropriate to Build a Muslim Community Center (aka the ''Ground Zero Mosque'') near the World Trade Center site?"
Reasoning:	"Not only is [the proposed location] exactly the wrong place, right at ground zero, but it’s a mosque supported by an imam who has a record of support for causes that were sympathetic with terrorism. This is a desecration. Nobody would allow something like that at Pearl Harbor. Let’s have some respect for who died there and why they died there. Let's not put this off on some kind of politically correct theory. [People] died there because of Islamic extremist terrorism. Islamic extremists are our enemy... [Opposition to the mosque] will not and should not insult any decent Muslim." Interview, Jeff Katz radio show, Aug. 2, 2010
