Rudy Simply Ignores Facts

Rudy Giuliani made clear in this week's Republican presidential debate that he is not ready to let the facts get in the way of his approach to foreign policy.

The most heated moment in Tuesday's debate, which aired live on the conservative Fox News network, came when the former New York mayor and current GOP front-runner angrily refused to entertain a serious discussion about the role that U.S. actions before 9/11 may have played in inspiring or encouraging the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

After U.S. Rep. Ron Paul of Texas restated facts outlined in the report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, Giuliani led the crowd of contenders in attacking him.

Paul, asked about his opposition to the invasion and occupation of Iraq, repeated the common concern that instead of making the U.S. safer, U.S. interventions in the Middle East over the years have stirred up anti-American sentiment.
