    Virulent Muslim hater Rudolph Giuliani is running for US Senate in New York next year, aiming for White House in 2012: Report.

    Following earlier reports that former New York City mayor and Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani had decided not to enter the 2010 governor’s race comes word that he has decided to run for Senate instead.

    While Giuliani’s spokeswoman is denying that he has made up his mind about which race, if any, to enter, sources tell the New York Daily News that Giuliani has been telling people he “plans to run against Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand in 2010 to fill out the remaining two years of Hillary Clinton’s term.”

    Giuliani is prominently featured in the ‘Third Jihad‘ movie, and was talked up by his New Hampshire campaign manager last year as the guy who could “Chase Muslims back into their caves or get rid of them.

    Republicans want this to go away in the worst way. They want to deal with Khalid Shaikh Mohammed in a dark military tribunal where the reporting is limited and the public won’t be able to consider charges against the Bush Administration. Love the explanation: it “gives an unnecessary advantage to the terrorists.” Such a joke.

    Giuliani Criticizes Terror Trials in New York
    By JOSEPH BERGER

    Rudolph W. Giuliani, mayor of New York at the time of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, said on Sunday that the Obama administration’s decision to try Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the self-described mastermind of the attacks, in a civilian court in Manhattan would unnecessarily cost millions of dollars for security, create legal advantages for the defense and symbolically deny that the United States is at war with terrorism.

    “It gives an unnecessary advantage to the terrorists and why would you want to give an advantage to the terrorists, and it poses risks for New York,” Mr. Giuliani said in an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union.” He also interviewed on ABC’s “This Week” and “Fox News Sunday.”

    Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. announced on Friday that the United States would try Mr. Mohammed in the federal courthouse in lower Manhattan, just blocks from where the World Trade Center towers were brought down by the attacks, which killed almost 3,000 people in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania. Mr. Holder said that a military commission would try five other detainees held at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, because they are accused of committing crimes overseas.
