This is an enlightening YouTube video that may explain why Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was invited to Columbia University.
If you catch the revelation as to what at least one Columbia University Professor (probably more) might think of the Jewish Race, what do you think an Ivy League University is teaching the cultural elite leadership of America’s future?
Hint: The Professor is a Mohammedan.
And here is a by the way: If Columbia U. claims it was promoting “Free Speech” by inviting Ahmadinejad, why were the makers of this video censored by the Columbia U. bureaucracy?

Ahmadinejad Squirmed Way More than Portraying Defiance
Amazing! The New York Times writes of Ahmadinejad as if he were a heroic Mohammedan standing bravely and defiantly in the midst of his detractors. You have to read way down in the article that Bollinger asked strong questions and even then portrayed Ahmadinejad’s response was a frozen smile. The NYT spun the facts and made Ahmadinejad look like the good guy for his beliefs and hypocritical criticisms of Israel and the West.
Ahmadinejad says Israel does not have a right to exist because it is racist State, yet the NYT fails to report Shia and Sunni Mohammedan exploitation of non-Mohammedan peoples living within the Middle East.
The NYT gives emphasis to Ahmadinejad’s comments about American possessing “fifth generation atomic bombs” while America wishes to prevent Iran or “other people who just want nuclear power”. What a bunch of Mohammedan crap! Everyone knows that the grade of uranium Iran is producing is way beyond peaceful commercial usage of nuclear power, indeed it is weapons grade uranium. And everyone knows that combining the technology of long range missile with weapons grade uranium is a given for production.
The NYT is skewing the news to the Left when they had an opportunity to both make Ahmadinejad look like the murderous freak that he is and praising Slanted Left Columbia President Bollinger with questions that would or should make a Slanted Right person happy.
Ahmadinejad squirmed way more than portraying defiance.

Outrage turns to laughter at Ahmadinejad NY speech
Here is some information relating to Ahmadinejad’s appearance at Columbia University and the questioning of the University’s President – Lee Bollinger.
The Source is Reuters, typically part of the slanted left Mainstream Media (MSM). So it is interesting the Reuters copy which is by Mark Egan alludes to the unhappiness Ahmadinejad had with the Bollinger questions.
This is one time a Leftie should be praised by from the full spectrum of America’s antagonizing opposing scales of political philosophy.

Outrage turns to laughter at Ahmadinejad NY speech

NEW YORK, Sept 24 (Reuters) - Vilified as a Holocaust denier, a supporter of terrorism and a backer of Iraqi insurgents, the president of Iran was actually able to make New Yorkers burst into laughter -- but not at a joke.
"In Iran we don't have homosexuals like in your country," Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said at Columbia University on Monday in response to a question about the recent execution of two gay men there.
"In Iran we do not have this phenomenon," he continued. "I do not know who has told you we have it."
Loud laughs and boos broke from the audience of about 700 people, mostly students at the Ivy League school whose garb included "Stop Ahmadinejad's Evil" T-shirts.
Everyone from presidential candidates to Sept. 11 families had expressed outrage that Ahmadinejad would speak there.
After his assertions that Israel persecutes Palestinians and that Iran's nuclear program is for energy not weapons, the Iranian leader's comment on gays broke the tension.
But it spurred strong reaction too.
"This is a sick joke," said Scott Long of Human Rights Watch, saying Iran tortures gays under a penal code that punishes homosexuality between men with the death penalty.
When Ahmadinejad, speaking in Farsi, actually tried to crack a joke, it drew no laughter, although maybe the nuance was lost in translation.
"Let me tell a joke here," Ahmadinejad said. "I think the politicians who are after atomic bombs, or testing them, making them, politically they are backward, retarded."
The crowd seemed uncertain how to react. Some applauded that pacifist sentiment, others seemed befuddled by the insensitive use of the word retarded.
DELUGE OF OBJECTIONS
Ahmadinejad's visit here was preceded by a deluge of objections when it became apparent he wanted to lay a wreath at Ground Zero and that he would speak at Columbia.
Presidential candidates from both major U.S political parties took swipes at the president of a country President George W. Bush calls part of "the axis of evil." They said he denied the Holocaust, supported terrorism and armed Iraqi insurgents.
New York City councilman Anthony Weiner had a different way of capturing all that.
"Sometimes we have snakes slithering through the streets of New York," Weiner told protesters outside the United Nations, where Ahmadinejad will speak on Tuesday.
And in a city known for its blunt manners, the Iranian president's reception was bound to be frosty. The New York Daily News had the front page headline, "The Evil Has Landed."
At Columbia, university President Lee Bollinger pulled no punches. He called him a "petty and cruel dictator" and said his Holocaust denials suggested he was either "brazenly provocative or astonishingly uneducated."
"I feel the weight of the modern civilized world yearning to express the revulsion at what you stand for," Bollinger said to loud applause.
In retort, Ahmadinejad berated Bollinger as a rude host.
"Many parts of his speech were insults," he said. "We actually respect our students and the professors by allowing them to make their own judgments."
Not everybody objected to his speaking appearance.
"If the (Columbia) president thinks it's a good idea to have the leader from Iran come and talk to the students as an educational experience, I guess it's OK with me," Bush told Fox News.

Apparently Bollinger Interrogates Ahmadinejad Like a Right Winger
The Blogger “Vanderleun” of American Digest weighs in on all the talk about Ahmadinejad being invited and speaking at Columbia University.
Vanderleun says he was against before he was for it.
Just kidding! Really, no “seriously” is a better word.
The Conservative Blogs (of which I am a part of by association) skewered Columbia University’s President Bollinger for inviting and giving Ahmadinejad a forum to validate the extreme radical Shia/political Mohammedanism of which the Iranian President represents.
Although I never blogged on the issue, I did read plenty who did. And I have to admit I joined in the realm of outrage and agreed with the criticism Bollinger was receiving. I even came close to signing an Internet petition to vent my displeasure over Ahmadinejad’s appointment on American soil by invitation of an esteemed Ivy League Academic institution known as Columbia University.
Unlike Vanderleun, I did not watch the whole affair feeling it would accomplish little.
However if Vanderleun is correct (I have not corroborating reports as yet), Bollinger was the victim (at least in this case) of judgment before actual assessment.
Apparently Bollinger asked some to the point precise questions that answers would demonstrate the true nature to Americans of Ahmadinejad’s way of thinking.
Here is Vanderleun’s blog post:
