Personally i was offended by the way he was treated at columbia by lee bolinger. It should have been no holds barred debate but the intro laced with insults was inappriate for an invited guest. If they didnt want him they shouldnt have invited him but once they did, they should have followed some etiquette.



Or they should have disinvited him. Academia has no problems disinviting people when it comes to people like Larry Summers. I think Bollinger realized that Columbia was going to get hit where it hurts (alumni donations) and tried to redeem itself. Not that it mattered a bit to Ahmedinijad or his propaganda coup.
