Columbia University would welcome Ahmadinejad and Gaddafi
The hotels and catering facilities of New York and New Jersey want nothing to do with Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Libyan terrorist Muammar Gaddafi who are in New York this week to help remind the world of the colossal cesspool that is the United Nations.
“Neither the Iranian mission nor President Ahmadinejad is welcome at any Helmsley facility,” says spokesman Howard Rubenstein, who issued a statement on behalf of the New York Helmsley Hotel after it learned that the Iranian nuclear proliferator was due to speak at a function at the New York Helmsley Hotel.
Likewise, nearby Englewood, NJ pulled the welcome mat on Colonel Gaddafi who wanted literally to pitch his tent there on a piece of land owned by the Libyan embassy.
Even when disguising their hunt for a suitable temporary dwelling by claiming to be members of the Dutch mission, Libyan agents couldn’t procure an apartment rental for the man who will address the UN as an honored diplomat – despite his clear roles in the downing of Pan Am 103 in 1988 and the 1986 Libyan bombing of a Berlin disco that killed and maimed American soldiers.
Silly despots, don’t they know that they and their entire satanic entourage would be more than welcome to encamp at Columbia University, which welcomed A-Jad to speak to cheering students exactly two years ago tomorrow and certainly continues to believe that no human is so utterly depraved that Columbia won’t argue that academic rigor absolutely requires it to provide him or her a platform from which to spread the verbal plague?
Don’t A-Jad, Muammar and their henchmen realize that Lee C. Bollinger, who has a soft spot for holocaust-denying, terrorist-celebrating madmen, remains the president of Columbia University and lives with his wife, Jean Magnano Bollinger, in diplomatic like digs on the Morningside Heights campus? Heck, A-Jad and Muammar could hang with the Bollingers during their United Nations sojourn and feel as welcome and as at home as if they were back in Tehran and Tripoli torturing their own citizens.
Columbia University and its welcome of A-Jad in September 2007 provided Iran, Libya, North Korea and other terrorist-states proof that no deed is so foul, no oppression so great, no dreams of genocide so repugnant that these men won’t still be welcome to walk the hallowed Ivy League halls and United Nations chambers of this world.
When earlier this summer Muammar and his fellow thugs partied in celebration of the homecoming of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi from Scotland, released from prison on so-called “humanitarian” grounds, Gaddafi knew that neither he nor Megrahi would ever be called to account for the 270 lives that Megrahi felled on board Pan Am 103, including 38 citizens of New Jersey.
Likewise, when A-Jad stole the June 12th Iranian presidential election and subsequently slaughtered 27-year-old Neda Agha Soltan and a few score of her fellow citizens, he knew that saps such as Bollinger would never have the backbone to call him to account for his evil.
Just last week A-Jad repeated his unvarying verbal excrement that the Holocaust “is a lie based on an unprovable and mythical claim.” The fact that A-Jad sees the destruction of Israel and its six million Jewish citizens as a “national and religious duty” won’t keep Columbia University, Lee Bollinger or the United Nations from giving him a dignified platform from which to retch his poison.
No, indeed, A-Jad and Muammar are living, breathing proofs that evil trumps good in a world of political correctness – where myopic leaders think playing kissy-face with devils incarnate will offer them some sort of ultimate protection from becoming victims themselves.
Truth be told, and history will tell it, Bollinger is dead wrong for ever allowing A-Jad a platform. The shame of Columbia University will be eternal.
The United Nations deserves to be swallowed by a huge sinkhole and its duplicitous leaders, past and present, can form their own league of national disgraces in hell.
As for the United States, which has done more good in the world than any other nation in history, its reputation, too, is tarnished by A-Jad and Muammar. If the current leaders of our beloved country had the sense of Thomas Jefferson, who risked his own life to dub King George III a tyrant, we’d never allow A-Jad and Muammar and their soul mates to defile our national soil by granting them entry to New York.
Better still, upon their arrival we’d greet them with handcuffs and an arrest warrant for crimes against humanity.

While I agree that both leaders are terrible and violent. I dislike Anti-Semitism just like any other person dislikes racism, but I am not uncivil enough to disrespect the Article 18 of the UNHDR. Columbia did NOTHING wrong in listening to him. It is the sound of a SOUND person, who can listen to her enemies without flipping out. More people should give it a try. Your piece is lacking in logic and overflowing in judgment.
You are insane... Also inaccurate, I was in the auditorium for the speech two years ago and there were no cheering students. It results in productive dialogue and a full week of debate over the issues. Moreover that entire day a demonstration organized by student groups was held on low plaza. Perhaps you are too narrow minded to consider that although controversial (and not without fault) the event was an important educational opportunity and in no way tarnished Columbia's reputation in the long run. Want stats? Columbia tops the list for Princeton Review dream schools, it continues to receive more applicants every year, and oh yeah, the President, Attorney General, and a ton of other administration figures are alums.
Yeah, you were clearly rejected from Columbia. "Cheering" students? Idiot.
Hey Rotbart -- Turn your brain on for 10 seconds and actually listen to how Lee Bollinger introduced this despot.

"rotbart" huh?
You sounds just like an ignorant and sensationalist member of the far far right. I wonder if you also jumped on Obama's visit to Columbia by labeling it as communist propaganda.
This is really one of those situations that's pretty tough to decide which way to go. While the United States has a definite policy regarding Freedom of Speech, which would apply to people like Ahmadinejad and Gaddafi, I think the larger picture actually overrules that policy. What I mean is that, in this particular case, their crimes should eliminate that right. Do we not have enough problems in our country with racist, hate-preaching, self-absorbed criminals without letting people like these two in? By the US Government allowing these persons access to our country without fear of arrest and prosecution, we are literally telling them "Here, torture, rape and murder our people just as long as you don't do it on US soil and we will welcome you with open arms to speak in our country and tread on our turf like you did nothing wrong.". I certainly don't want my children growing up with that particular train of thought. Arrest them and try them immediately upon setting foot in the US!
Putting Ahmadinejad and Qaddafi in the same plate, only service the mainstream Zionist-westernized mind set.
The truth is that Ahmadinejad is a democratically elected president with over 80% of Iranian behind him on a top of a legitimate State. Qaddafi on the other hand, is a tyrant dictator with crypto-zionist roots, doing the bids of the zio-west. Grow-up all of you servants of the ZPC that makes the best of your democracies look like the Soviet Russia.
