He's o.k. Akmedinijad is kind of a loud mouth Bill Hannity type. He's starving for attention. It's well known that his denial that the Holocaust happened is a methaphorical protest of the National Zionists refusal to recognize the 5000 year history of Palestine and the right of all Semitic people to inhabit all of the lands of Palestine.
The fact is that in this century, Globalism has taken over the world. Aka Global economic behemoths. It started in the 1900's with the Zaibatsu. Then the 1950's Keiretsu. In the 1980s the European Union. Now we have huge public conglomerates like Exxon, WalMart, Toyota, that are their own international cross-border government. Now the Russian Federation, Arab League, China, African Union are using the same model and are emerging to take their places on the world scene. It's just a matter of time before nationalist regimes are absorbed into these Global governments.
no.....WTF?
I mean the guy is giving orders to send Iranian soldiers to kill U.S soldiers, and a university lets him speak at all???
WTF? Unbelievable.
Akmedinijad does not have the power in Iraq. The Ayatollahs do. He's a big mouth credit taker. He'd be a great T&F head coach, since credit taking is the most important skill of all. If you want to go after all the countries who are supplying weapons, money, and fighters with instructions to kill Americans in Iraq, then plan to attack 2/3rds of the countries on the planet. China, Russia, Azerbaijan, Pakistan, Syria, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Cuba, Ethiopoia, Tadjikistan, Mongolia, Venezuela, Tibet, Vietnam, Sudan, North Korea, Egypt, Morrocco, the list goes on and on. The freedom fighters are from all of these countries.

Aside from Ahmadinejad being the President of Iran, not Iraq, this idea is true. The Ayatollahs run the show in Iran, as it has been the case since the Iranian Revolution. I'd venture to say that Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is the most powerful man in Iran.
it's just a bunch of liberal east coasters who want the world to think they are above everything and soooo free minded....look at me...i'm cool because i am sooo liberal...give me a break.

Well, realistically, the American invaders do seem to understand having their soldiers killed, and the American people do seem to understand that when they invade they will be slaughtered. They may not like these facts, but they do seem to understand them. Were Iranians to invade America, they would be killed, too.
Here you are shooting off your mouth, and you know what? You can!
Don't you get it? Free speech is for everybody. It doesn't belong to "liberal east coasters" any more than it belongs to right-wing west coasters.
I used to pay lip service to free speech (sorry) and also I never used to bother voting. But then I lived for a long time in a place that was a colony of another country, and saw first-hand what it was like not to have any voice in the government, to face the possibility of prison for saying the wrong thing, and on my part, to have to keep my mouth firmly shut about what anybody could see were big, big ripoffs. Why? Because as a "guest" in the country I'd have been out on my ass in a second had I criticized what was happening.
When I got back to the US I registered to vote and haven't missed an election in 30 years. And I give money to whatever free speech organization I want to.
Let's hope the rest of the world takes note of what Columbia's doing. Think of some people outside the US who don't understand free speech:
-- you let that guy talk in one of your universities?
-- yeah, that's what we do. We're not afraid of it.
Seems to me that's a more powerful symbolic statement than any of the "exporting democracy" lines we so often see.
USA is full of simple minded people. They elected Bush for Pete's sake!
Why the big suprise. Columbia like most liberal elitest schools loves anyone that speaks of the ills of America.
Yes Columbia will use the quise of free exchange of ideas, open debate etc.. Schools like these are the same schools that have barred the military from setting up ROTC programs.
So bann the people who fight and die to protect American citizens. Invite the leader of a country that is now aiding and in many cases actually killing Americans.
For any true liberal this makes perfect sense.
Death to America, and Israel to.
there is zero credible evidence that any iranian is involved with killing american soldiers or in supplying base materials
there is a huge amount of evidence that saudi arabia is supplying the sunni's with explosive devices plus funding and W meets with the saudi govt on a regular basis
iran was the first middle east country (before israel) to publicly offer condolences on 9/11
who is being hypocritical?
as has been pointed out, being president of iran is not the same power position as other countries. he is not the commander in chief. his calls for regime change in israel and the US sound identical to what the US president has called for in other countries.
Yes...So let's never even talk to our enemies. I'm sure relations will get a lot better that way.
oldfart, No credible evidence. Please give me a break. There has been plenty of evidence.
Iran calling for regime change in Israel. Are you clueless.First Israel is a democratically elected govt. Second Iran called for Israel to be wiped off the face of the earth.
I love the way people cover up their antisemitism.
how about the US embassy being invaded and the marine barracks in Lebanaon who were hit by Hezbollah that Iran funds?
I don't get why people take hatred towards Israel as hatred towards America.
Those people have been fighting for millenniums.
There really is no reason for the America - Israel alliance anymore. Other then the money.
Well, realistically, the American invaders ...
Why is it that you call Americans fighting in Iraq "invaders" but you don't refer to Iranians fighting in Iraq the same way?
how about the US embassy being invaded and the marine barracks in Lebanaon who were hit by Hezbollah that Iran funds?
The US and Israel does not belong in the Middle East. The people in the Middle East have been fighting for freedom from the Crusaders for 2000 years.
Jews have been in the Middle East for 10,000 years and Jews, Arabs, etc. will always be in the Middle East. The sons of Abraham.

Stalin's #1 henchman was a Jew.
Iran, the entire Arab world, plus 2/3rd of the rest of the world wants National Zionism to be destroyed. The political system and the invaders from Europe and America must be destroyed and removed from Palestine.
Israel today is not a democracy and never has been. Israel is Simon Herzl's Jewish superiority cult, an apartheid state, criminal, murderous, countless war crimes. Simon copied Hitler in the 1900's. Simon is a Hungarian Jew, founder of National Zionism.
