Mayor of New York visits sites of bombs in Israel
The Associated Press
TEL AVIV, Israel — In a show of solidarity yesterday, New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani rode on a Jerusalem bus line struck twice by Islamic militants, then visited the site where a bomb blew up in Tel Aviv.
Giuliani boarded the red-and-white Egged bus during early morning rush hour, about the same time that suicide bombers attacked Feb. 25 and March 3, killing 45 people.

cide bombing on March 4.
The two mayors then proceeded to nearby Dizengoff Center, the shopping mall targeted by the latest sui
As Giuliani laid a wreathe at the site of the blast where the bomber and 13 other people died, police kept away several hundred onlookers.
At a news conference inside the mall, Giuliani expressed admiration for Israel's reaction to the bombing war.
"The people of New York City are in awe of the people of Israel, what you've been able to overcome," Giuliani said. "The things that I've seen would have broken a lesser people."
"It's as if it's happening to us," he said.
One onlooker carried a sign that said, "Thank you for your support." A woman shouted out, "I'm from Bensonhurst; I voted for you."
"I feel like I'm at home," said Giuliani, drinking from a tall cup from the mall's branch of Sbarro's, a New York-based Italian fast food chain.
Earlier, in Jerusalem, Giuliani chatted with one of the bus passengers.
"Of course I think about it (the danger) every time I get on the bus, but why let the terrorists win?" said Peter Marcus, 23, an immigrant from England who works in marketing.
In a meeting with Prime Minister Shimon Peres, Giuliani expressed the support and admiration New Yorkers and Americans had for the residents of Jerusalem.
"We can feel that you share our pain, "Peres responded.
Giuliani also met opposition Likud Party leader Benjamin Netanyahu, who said Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat should be pressed to take stronger action against the Islamic militants.
"Rather than embracing him, we should put pressure on him," Netanyahu said.
