Last Friday, New York's junior senator, Hillary Clinton, issued an exclusive statement to The Post, saying that she couldn't support the plan. "I am troubled by the serious concerns family members and first responders have expressed to me," Clinton said. "I do not believe we can move forward until it . . . addresses their concerns." Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani — who speaks with singular authority — also weighed in: "They should change the whole concept and scrap [the] plans and focus it on 9/11. I think it's a mistake." ........... The center was the brainchild of one Tom Bernstein, whose group, Human Rights First, is devoted exclusively to blaming America for just about everything wrong in the world. It invited in "scholars," like Columbia Univesity's Eric Foner, who wrote after 9/11: "I'm not sure which is more frightening: the horror that engulfed New York City or the apocalyptic rhetoric emanating from the White House." Anthony Romero, the executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union, was made an IFC adviser. Meanwhile, the center planned to hand over control of its programming to ultra-liberal academicians. Its exhibits and forums were to focus heavily on the international role in the march of freedom — the world's response to 9/11.
