Fred Siegel’s new Rudy book is, broadly, a strong defense of him on every policy front, and makes a particularly strong case that Rudy took terrorism seriously before it was fashionable to do so.
But in a recent interview with National Review Online, Siegel was asked: “How did Giuliani’s immigration policy contribute to our 9/11 intelligence failure?”
He responded: “Giuliani’s lax policy on immigration helped allow several of the hijackers to operate comfortably in Brooklyn only a few blocks from my house.”
