Ahmadinejad's Visit To NYC

The Iranian president made a visit to Columbia University yesterday; apparently, he was less then well received. From the AP article:

"Ahmadinejad smiled as Columbia President Lee Bollinger took him to task over Iran's human-rights record and foreign policy, and Ahmadinejad's statements denying the Holocaust and calling for the disappearance of Israel. 'Mr. President, you exhibit all the signs of a petty and cruel dictator,' Bollinger said, to loud applause."

Today, Ahmadinejad will be speaking in front of the UN General Assembly, where he will likely try to convince the international community that he wasn't serious about all that 'wipe Israel off the map' stuff.
