Bollinger Blasts Ahmadinejad PDF Print E-mail

Columbia University President Lee Bollinger blasts Amhadinejad over several topics before allowing him to speak. He covered his Holocaust denials. Also his imprisonment of women, homosexuals and academics. He spoke about Ahmadinejad's stance against Israel. He asked him why he is fighting a proxy war in Iraq and why he pushed the world toward nuclear war.

"I doubt you will have the intellectual courage to answer these questions." Bollinger told him.

 Ahmadinejad responded with a complaint, saying that the tradition in Iran is to allow a speaker to speak, without an immunization of the students against the words spoken.

I'm sure Ahmadinejad would love to be able to speak his mind here without anyone calling him on his behaviors. Luckily, we don't believe in such tripe here.
