‘Unhinged’ Rudy Giuliani drank and ranted about Islam, new book claims

Ex-mayor derailed ‘train wreck’ dinner with clients and colleagues, then was later considered for secretary of state
www.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com

...at one point Giuliani turned to a Jewish man “wearing a yarmulke [who] had ordered a kosher meal” and, under the impression the man was a Muslim, said: “I’m sorry to have tell you this, but the founder of your religion is a murderer.”

The way my brain works is to leap to some obscurely related song first, followed by a smartass comment. So here's the song:
The smartass comment will have to wait until the song is over.
 
I mean the old testament is pretty much the compiled jewish religious texts, for example the torah is the first 5 books of the old testament.
 
When people who hate themselves and don't know it become admired as heroes and saints, those inner feelings can become like haunting demons that praise will agitate. The left hand of darkness rises up out of the unconscious to bring about a Humpty Dumpty effect. The bigger they are the harder they fall. And, of course, it is the size of the ego.

The ego is what saved us as children and imprisons us as adults. To seek is to die to self. To do it in a back handed manor, to participate vicariously, is to destroy the ego but achieve no redemption. To know Thyself then is the key to everything.

Why? What if we just leave it as that. And what do you mean, that people are sometimes crazy or that some people are crazy all the time? And where does it leave us that sometimes people are crazy or that there are crazy people? Are they a threat? Are they incurable? Do we ignore them or shoot them on sight? It would be crazy not to consider such things, don't you think? But then, maybe sometimes people are just crazy. Have you ever considered that one of those 'crazies' could be you? Do you really know yourself? But then, if you really were crazy what chance would there be of reaching you. Sometimes people are just crazy. Other people are more curious:

What does crazy mean?:

WIKI: Humpty Dumpty appears in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking-Glass (1871), a sequel to Alice in Wonderland from six years prior. Alice remarks that Humpty is "exactly like an egg," which Humpty finds to be "very provoking" in the looking-glass world. Alice clarifies that she said he looks like an egg, not that he is one. They discuss semantics and pragmatics[27] when Humpty Dumpty says, "my name means the shape I am," and later:

"I don't know what you mean by 'glory,' " Alice said.
Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. "Of course you don't—till I tell you. I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!'"
"But 'glory' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument'," Alice objected.
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master—that's all."
Alice was too much puzzled to say anything, so after a minute Humpty Dumpty began again. "They've a temper, some of them—particularly verbs, they're the proudest—adjectives you can do anything with, but not verbs—however, I can manage the whole lot! Impenetrability! That's what I say!"

This passage was used in Britain by Lord Atkin in his dissenting judgement in the seminal case Liversidge v. Anderson (1942), where he protested about the distortion of a statute by the majority of the House of Lords. It also became a popular citation in United States legal opinions, appearing in 250 judicial decisions in the Westlaw database as of 19 April 2008, including two Supreme Court cases (TVA v. Hill and Zschernig v. Miller).

I rember reading somewhere that a man's character is determined by his aim and that the person who spoke those words admired a Buddhist prayer. "I vow to save all sentient beings." But then if some people are just crazy, well what is the point?

Rudy was always angry when forced to acknowledge those who were not White. He hated that he lost to David Dinkins and nursed a grudge against New York City's first Black Mayor.

Just as Trump hated the idea of Obama winning the White House. Trump never got over Obama succeeding and re-establishing the respect the world had for the U.S.
 
Didn’t Rudy say he had Hunters laptop at some point? If the contents were so damning for Joe. Biden why didn’t he just release the contents?

I’ll answer that, the accusations are pure bullshit. Worst they have is Hunter lying on a gun permit application or tax evasion. Nothing on Joe. Since Hunter is not running for office no big deal.

Yeah, it's just bizarre the attention this fabled laptop gets. It's as if it's the electronic version of the Ark of the Covenant or something, awarding mystical power to whoever gets hold of it. Surprised the Republicans haven't hired Indiana Jones to find it - or more appropriately, his rival Dr. Belloq.

Probably Rudy daren't access the contents or his face would have melted. (Merely glancing at it seems to have been enough to melt his hair and send him mad)
