Rudy Giuliani, Republican



Current position:
Lawyer and businessman

Curriculum vitae:
  • Mayor of New York City (1993-2001)
  • Associate Deputy Attorney General (1975-1981)

    Memorable quotes:
  • "Terrorist acts became a ticket to the international bargaining table. How else to explain Yasser Arafat winning the Nobel Peace Prize when he was supporting a terrorist plague in the Middle East that undermined any chance of peace?" (Republican Party Convention, August 2004)

  • "Israel is the only outpost of freedom and democracy in the Middle East and the only absolutely reliable friend of the United States." (August 2002)

  • "In the 1990s, the terrorists told us what they were going to do and we ignored it. We glorified Yasser Arafat when he was training terrorists in Palestine." (January 2002)

  • "The people of Jerusalem and the people of New York City are shoulder-to-shoulder; and the people of America and the people of Israel are shoulder-to-shoulder in the fight against terrorism." (Jerusalem, December 2001)

    Other information:

  • In 1995, Giuliani had late Palestinian Authority chairman Yasser Arafat ejected from a concert at the Lincoln Center in New York

  • Returned a $10 million donation from a Saudi prince after 9/11 after his comments on Israel and the Palestinians
