Rudy Giuliani's policy regarding Saudi Arabia would be a dramatic change from President Bush's if Giuliani becomes president, a senior adviser says.
According to Ynetnews.com, foreign policy adviser Norman Podhoretz told the New York Jewish News: "Any president would have to hesitate before risking the kind of economic dislocation that would be caused by tangling with the Saudis. But I think that Rudy does actually have a different attitude (than Bush) and might very well try to change our policy.
"Because the Saudis are alarmed over the Iranian threat, we have a very good chance of persuading them that it is in their own interest to cease financing jihadist agitation."
The Jewish News also pointed out that Giuliani returned a check to Saudi Prince Alwaleed Bin-Talal intended to aid 9/11 victims' families after the prince cited U.S. policy toward Israel as a cause of the attack.
