Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's Spurning At Columbia University:



September 24-2007:

Attention:

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's Spurning At Columbia University!

It was the response from an invitation that was sent to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, from, Columbia University President Lee


Bollinger, that was responsible for his visit here today.
And I am at a loss to understand how could the president of such a prestigious university, insult an invited guest of that stature in public?

Furthermore, I was of the opinion that such an invitation was sent in order to hear from Mr. Ahmadinejad's lips, his reason for denying the holocaust!

However, it seems like the forum was used by the university officials, politicians, and the media alike, to make a mockery of someone they feel is Evil, a Terrorist, and a Hater of Jews.

This tells me just how petty, un-diplomatic, and frivolous these proceedings were. And I am certain that it would not in any way, persuade their invited guest to re-think or change his views of the holocaust or Israel.

The world community is already aware of similar aspersions made in the past from Hamas, Hesbullah, Palestinians, and others throughout the globe, about their hatred for Israel or Jews.
However, I am unable to comprehend the motive for this invite, and what outcome the university and others hope to gain from this scenario!
