Mahmoudapalooza: The madman comes calling; Update: A Columbia/nutjob quid pro quo?; Update: 11:45am Eastern blogging from CU; Update: 1:35pm Eastern Hundreds counterprotest at Columbia; 2:20pm Eastern – “Some big powers to do not want to see the progress of others;” Update: 4:30pm Eastern Over to Ground Zero; Update: Who didn’t get to speak

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 24, 2007 08:26 AM

Update 6:00pm Eastern. This is probably one of the most powerful signs I snapped photos of today at Columbia University…

shiri

Absolute moral authority.

Meantime, no sign of the Iranian nutjob here at Ground Zero. It’s possible he squeezed in his visit this morning when the protesters were cleared up. If so, though, why would he sit on the disgusting propaganda photos?

Across town, you can find blog reports of the large protest at the United Nations at Atlas Shrugs and The Invisible Hand.

This Ain’t Hell attended the National Press Club protest in Washington, D.C.

Hugh Hewitt is not impressed with Columbia president Lee Bollinger’s attempted salvage operations:

Whenever Lee Bollinger steps down as Columbia’s president, some poor fool will toast him for his “stirring” speech today, for speaking truth to power, blah blah blah. Nonsense. President Bollinger gave Ahmadinejad a microphone and a stage and then tried to use the underbilling to redeem his university’s sorry complicity in the legitimizing of this fanatic’s place in the world. Columbia can black out the backdrop and deliver stern lectures that go unheard in the Islamist world, but it won’t remove the stain on its own reputation: It played a role of accessory to many lies today, delivered by a killer of our troops.

Outside Columbia University at the Stand with Us/Hasbarah protest, approx. 1:00pm Eastern.

Update 9:25pm Eastern. Charles Johnson reprints an email from a Columbia U. student about those who cheered Mahmoud’s evil, insanity, and obfuscation. You won’t be surprised.

Update 5:45pm Eastern. Judith at Kesher Talk has photos of the protesters and 9/11 family members who gathered at Ground Zero this morning before being hustled out by the Port Authority.

Gerard Van der Leun has a round-up of reax to Bollinger’s rope-a-dope.

Update: 4:35pm Eastern. We’ve headed over to Ground Zero, where some of the Columbia University protesters have gathered in case the Iranian nutjob decides to sneak his cursed wreath onto the memorial site.

After the Columbia University speech let out, dozens of protesters stood at the front gates of Columbia chanting “Shame on Columbia!” The anti-Mahmoud coalition took on a few clueless ANSWER protesters clad in orange and Bush Derangement Syndrome bumper stickers. I interviewed Iranian-American dissident Banafsheh Zand-Bonazzi of the Secular Muslim Summit, who was livid after confronting the moral equivalence and historical ignorance of the moonbats holding anti-Bush signs. The Jewish groups and Iranian critics of the mullahcracy were joined by many NYC-area bloggers and Gathering of Eagles members as well.

Speech highlights: There are no gays in Iran, don’t you know? More on Mahmoud’s John Lennon peace, love, and harmony routine. And here’s the Bollinger intro.

Dan Riehl sheds light on the significance of Mahmoud’s science and technology spiel:

Anyone listening closely should have been able to comprehend that Ahmadinejad’s discussion of science and technology was about the search for truth and it was based upon the notion that to discern truth one must be free of ideology and bias due to a pure understanding of Islam via The Koran. That was why he preceded all that science and technology stuff with the little intro on divine wisdom. And the particular truth he was riffing around had to do with the Holocaust.

It’s precisely that point, which the Left and apparently some on the Right miss that makes Iran and Ahmadinejad so dangerous.

Don’t let the warm embrace of some of the Columbia University students fool you. We saw plenty of disgusted Columbia alumni and families who were not impressed.

Update 2:15pm Eastern. Watching the speech on a TV at a deli. So, Columbia is getting an earful about Allah and Islam. Lots of finger-waving…and now he’s accusing the West of forcing other cultures into “submission.” Classic projection. He’s complaining about nuclear intimidation. Seriously. He attacks the West for “denying the scientific progress of others.”

One CNN commentator is calling Columbia president Lee Bollinger’s introduction a “humiliating dress-down.” Bollinger chided Mahmoud for his “preposterous, belligerent statements.” Raves for Bollinger here. I’m withholding judgement. If you caught it and you agree, chime in.

Update 1:35pm Eastern. Inside the gates, Ahmadinejad has begun the “dialogue.” Video. There are several hundred counterprotesters outside the Columbia gates, mostly Jewish organizations and some brave Persian dissidents. I’ve talked to rabbis, young families, students, alumni. Most are livid that Columbia has penned them off campus. There are busloads of kids here, but many older folks are disappointed that the turnout isn’t higher. This may be because lots of people turned out for the anti-Mahmoud rally at the U.N. Organizers expect many of them to head over here. Lots of helicopters overhead.

We’re going to try to do a livestream from the protest. Meantime, a few more photos:

This mother and daughter drove from Morris County, NJ:

Here’s the Iranian nutjob’s National Press Club appearance.

Update 11:46am Eastern. Allah passes word via PJM that Ground Zero was cleared of anti-Mahmoud protesters this morning.

Meantime, we’re stationed at Columbia at the front gates on 116th and Broadway. I just interviewed CU undergrad Jacob Kriegel, president of the student Jewish organization LionPAC. There’s a sizable crowd gathering. Many Persian students raising their voices in opposition to Ahmadinejad’s presence. We’ll have video.

Here are a few pics of the scene on Broadway, which is lined with media:

Update 9:50am Eastern. Was there a quid pro quo? CNSNews’s Susan Jones raises the question in a story about the recent release of an Iranian Columbia alum (hat tip – reader Jeff):

The president of Columbia University is expressing relief that a Columbia alumnus was released from an Iranian prison — just days before the Iranian president is scheduled to speak at Columbia University.

Dr. Kian Tajbakhsh, who works for George Soros’s Open Society Institute, was one of several Iranian-Americans detained by Iran for allegedly conspiring against Iran’s national security.

Tajbakhsh was freed on bail last Thursday. Iranian President Mahmoud Amadinejad is speaking at Columbia on Monday, and the invitation for him to appear on campus has drawn widespread condemnation from politicians and ordinary Americans, who view Amadinejad as an enemy of the United States and Israel.

Here’s more from the student publication, the Columbia Spectator.

As they say: Question the timing.

Update 9:30am Eastern. Spoof time–a reader sends along the webpage of the new Columbia University School of Terrorism.

columbia terrorism school spoof

Fake, but accurate.

Not a spoof: Left-wing lesbian crushing on Mahmoud.

Another small sign of sanity at Columbia: The law school dean, David Schizer, speaks:

This event raises deep and complicated issues about how best to express our commitment to intellectual freedom, and to our free way of life. Although we believe in free and open debate at Columbia and should never suppress points of view, we are also committed to academic standards. A high-quality academic discussion depends on intellectual honesty but, unfortunately, Mr. Ahmadinejad has proven himself, time and again, to be uninterested in whether his words are true. Therefore, my personal opinion is that he should not be invited to speak. Mr. Ahmadinejad is a reprehensible and dangerous figure who presides over a repressive regime, is responsible for the death of American soldiers, denies the Holocaust, and calls for the destruction of Israel. It would be deeply regrettable if some misread this invitation as lending prestige or legitimacy to his views.

But Hugh Hewitt is right:

While the dean’s candor on what Ahmadinejad represents is welcome, the idea that “prestige or legitimacy” is not inherent in the invitation is just absurd. It is the “World Leaders Forum” at one of the world’s great universities –of course Columbia is not merely “lending” the fanatic “prestige” and “legitimacy,” it is wholesaling both to him and all he represents.

For as long as we recall that Iran has been killing American soldiers and Marines, we will also recall that when Ahmadinejad came to the United States, it was Columbia that welcomed him and gave him a stage, a microphone, a vast audience and all the “prestige” and “legitimacy” Columbia can confer.

American former hostage Barry Rosen, held captive in Iran for 444 days with more than 50 other innocent citizens, delivers his message to Mahmoud in the NYPost today:

Ahmadinejad was one of those outrageous Iranians who took me and more than 50 other Americans hostage for 444 days, violating international law and making us suffer indescribable moments of terror.

There is simply no reason to give him a platform to spew his venom.

No matter how hard-hitting Columbia’s president questions Ahmadinejad, the Iranian leader is a winner.
Every word he utters is meant for his radical constituents at home and legitimizes his standing among other dictators like Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez.

It’s only when Ahmadinejad permits his own people to march and speak freely, that I believe Columbia President Lee Bollinger would be justified in giving the Iranian president an open forum.

Not before then.

Clint Taylor looks at Columbia and is reminded of Yale’s embrace of the Taliban.

Michael Rubin nails academia’s selective defense of free speech:

The issue we see with Columbia is deeper than freedom of speech but rather the inconsistency with which university faculties choose to support it. If men like Richard Bulliet and Lee Bollinger, and women like Lisa Marie Anderson cared about freedom of speech, they might want to enable those who don’t have it, rather than celebrate the men who have taken it away.

Exactly. It has been nauseating listening all weekend to the same, speech-squelching student mobsters who shut down secure-borders proponent Jim Gilchrist now preaching about allowing “dissenting voices” to be heard.

There is one, rare voice of sanity and adulthood at Columbia. Power Line reprints a statement from Columbia U’s business school dean, Glenn Hubbard. His bottom line:

Some would argue that a University should be a place of intellectual freedom and open debate, but others ­ including me argue that Mr. Ahmadinejad, who is responsible for the death of American soldiers, denies the Holocaust, and calls for the destruction of Israel, has proven himself incapable of engaging in a true and honest academic discussion.

    I think the nuke topic with Ahmedinejad is a red herring for the international community. Nuclear capability in a nation state that cannot even refine its own gasoline- they may get it, but it wont be anytime soon and might be as effective as Kim Jong Dil.

    Iran’s pursuit and posturing around nuclear power allows Ahmendinejad to frame a question the International community doesn’t have an answer for “Why do some have nukes and others don’t?”

    Pakistan has them. India has them. etc etc. Why not Iran?

    To the relativistic EU and quislings in the US who believe they can live with a nuclear Iran- he is asking the perfect question for isolating the US and Israel.

    The point of this is to use the issue as a foil, to make the West hesitate and become alienated as corps of allies.

    His question fractures the traditionally allied powers and isolates the twin Satans.

    The 12th Imam is not nuclear dependent, as far as Iranian nukes are concerned.

    The destruction of Iran by brute Israeli and US firepower means nothing to the Turk Ahmedinejad as his homeland- it is the conflagration itself that will ignite the return of the 12th Imam, as if attacking the defenseless Persians is the catalyst for the return, not so much the nuking of Israel and the destruction of American.

    It is the rise of the Infidel nations against the Children of the Mahdi that will ignite the Imam’s return, with that return spelling the demise of Israel and the United States.

    I think the political discussion on the part of the West has misconstrued the entire Imam issue.

    I am saying I think so, not saying I am categorically right or spot on or unwilling to listen alternative views more in depth.

    The reason I hold the opinion that I hold is because Iran is not the omega point in this geopolitical chapter.

    It is ultimately the gangster state of Russia and the desparation of the Chicom “capitalist” experiment in China that ultimately sets the terms of the final chapter.

    The world either survives and avoids a dark age governed by the ChiComs fighting it out with the degenerate Russian state; or it does not.

    The Lion’s Share of US military assets are deployed against that eventuality- not against the pawn known as Iran.

    Hence, the 20 year war planning scenario by US intelligence and defense.

    Iran is a near term bloodbath. Advantage: Israel and the US. WHo has the most to lose?

    Russian and China facing massive US firepower on their borders and in every wrinkle of their spheres of influence.

    Anyways- my 2 cents.

    On the huggybear hair-splitting about the MoveOn ad-

    Petraeus is a soldier with the general’s rank. His report wasn’t written in a vacuum. He has a staff, which is built upon a chain of command with soldiers of all ranks playing roles which impacted the quality of the report.

    It is juvenile to separate Petraeus from the soldiers he relies on to do his job. Period.

    To do so is the kind of liberal smarm that reminds me of the playground arguments from elementary school. Just plain juvenile.

    And to try and deflect that with the fact that some people who identify as conservatives don’t like some of their fellow Americans.

    History is full of that. And people who do that kinda stuff are full of it.

    But let’s not piddle over the filling in the middle. Them that’s doing don’t have time for all the trifling nonsense of changing words to songs and gotcha politics.

    Them that’s doing are creating jobs and creating or adding value on a daily basis- and after that priority is taken care of we go to meetings in our communities to fight sharia creep and state encroachment on our parental and property rights. We are shipping packages to troops and tending to the returning vets who live amongst us.

    The rest of this is radio talk show one ups- who benefits from it?

    Petraeus is a fighting general and a statesman- but not one shred of this is possible without his soldiers. They have his back, and he sure as hell better have their’s- because there is no separating them.

    Yes, brass have screwed enlisted men and women over and over throughout the history of the military. But to artificially separate them for political purposes is just plain rank, Lefty gutter slime politics.

    Hoo-rah!

    Shame is the first step on the path to Dhimmitude and submission.

    I will not submit.

    No matter what the egg headed quislings of Columbia or the rest of the Left do or say, their abandonment of their principles, underminding of traditional standards, and selling off of their own proud legacy of *legitimate* intellectual inquiry, I will not give in to shame and feelings of self-pity.

    I would bet, in certain circles, there will be greater condemnation of the introductory comments of Bollinger as rude and distasteful towards an invited dignitary, and they’ll say they were most likely done to appease the right-wing fringe who so adamantly opposed this forum.

    The people I’ve talked to today, “in real life” :) have asked me if I saw those statements, and they quickly said EXACTLY that – They told me they bet anything he only said that to try to dig himself out of the hole he dug himself into, and I quickly agreed, since I’d seen a piece that the legislators in the area had decided to meet to discuss yanking important funding from Columbia in response to this stunt.

    Looks like we all have a concensus, these comments weren’t aimed at Ahmendinajb, but they were for the self-serving purpose of the consumption of angry Americans.

    It didn’t work! We still feel it is Treason according to the Constitutional definition, and that the small cadre of elitists do NOT have the authority in a democratic republic to over-ride the Constitution together with the Americna Majority, with their weaselly Stalinistic opinions.

    Once again, the left subliminally shows its desire to repeal the First Amendment in its entirety.

    I saw a glimpse this evening of Fox News running the tape of them throwing pies at Ann Coulter!

    So much for the “educational benefits” of “DEBATE”!

    Joseph Stalin: “America is like a healthy body, and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we (communists) can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within.”

    Communist Goals (1963)
    Congressional Record–Appendix, pp. A34-A35
    January 10, 1963


    16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
    17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
    18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
    19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

    25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.

    29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

    32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture–education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
    33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
    34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

    42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.
    43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.

    According to all laws concerning aiding and abetting, and I specifically reference Treason, anyone who is guilty of that is guilty of all the crimes of the ones they abet.
    The Liberals who schemed to come up with an excuse to provide this platform for anyone of the likes of Ahmendinajab is guilty of treason, of aiding and abetting, of validating this man in the eyes of the world and of shaming their own homeland, deliberately and willfully, in the process.

    I know what George Washington and Paul Revere would do with them – no doubt about it.

    Avoiding such trials for the sake of trying to look innocent of Partisanship is so much additional damage to our nation – it is a pathetic abdication of our fiduciary duties to America and our Constitution.

    This morning, the real truth finally came out. In a Fox News interview with former ambassador Marc Ginsburg, much more intricate details were revealed about why Columbia University would invite that despicable I’m in a jihad president of Iran and give a terrorist like him a platform to spew more of his lies and dangerous, hateful rhetoric. …

    I saw that piece, too – he was saying that JUST A FEW DAYS AGO, Iran released a COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY ALUMNI, employee of George Soros, who had been imprisoned there.

    The Ambassador didn’t say so – but THAT IS ALWAYS CODE for a HIGH RANSOM WAS PAID.

    Knowing George Soros, we know the money changed hands TOO, as well as the platform being extended.

    The Ambassador went on to tell that there has been extensive interchange between Iran and Columbia for years.
    I don’t remember the details on that.

    Well, maybe some of you don’t catch my drift, so I’ll say it plainly.

    As far as I am concerned -

    Columbia was obviously deeply grieved to have to cancel Ahmendinajab, last year, and prolly MOST LIKELY, UNDOUBTEDLY, beyond any shadow of a doubt, agreed with him to come up with this “ruse” that would obviously come to light that the so-called “hostage” had been released, as have so many others before, after secret, unadmitted ransoms are paid, to which the governments have always politely turned a blind eye, since “lives are at stake”.

    It’s plain it was (intended to be) a great cover for funding terrorists and excusing a prestigeous platform being offered to such a bloody dictator.

    huggybear, you don’t get it. An attack on one of us, is an attack on all of us.

    When you attack the military leader, you are attacking the privates, sergeants, and everyone else in the military. Every politician in DC knew that but they opted to get the money from moveon instead of supporting our troops. Shameful in my opinion.

    TREASONOUS, in my opinion!!! Frankly, my dear!!! (BTW, I cleverly made sure that I am in complete agreement with George Washington, Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, James Otis, Patrick Henry, and Nathan Hale, et al.)

    Double-M,

    I received a bizarre comment from a left wing looney tune on my blog tonight that referenced you, even though I could not figure out why. The moonbat said, in talking about Armageddonijad,

    “This man is a bad man, therefore we should not let him speak. He is bad, so we should stop being Americans and we should not bother to talk about things like grownups. We should assassinate him, as Michelle Malkin proposed.”

    I was not aware you proposed taking him out execution style. I liked you before, but if that is comment is true, now I like you more.

    absurd thought -
    God of the Universe says
    ignore the NEW Hitler

    let him visit Ground Zero
    gloat over terrorism

    absurd thought -
    God of the Universe says
    give New Hitler NUKES

    just wait till he bombs others
    and then just NUKE him back

    absurd thought -
    God of the Universe says
    Sharia MUST rule Earth

    in bringing back stone age

    Many should re-read the predictions of Nostradamus … not a “believer” but do find it thought provoking …

    I think we thought the references of the possible end of the world were descriptions of Saddam … obviously that was wrong as Ahmadinejad’s more in line with the threat described by Nostradamus as rising from the mid-east …

    Nothing more than finding it to be an interesting dichotomy of the Islamic and Western cultures in what appears to be an inevitable clash of civilizations that we are heading toward full-speed …

    Columbia students and leading faculty demonstrated total ignorance and blatant treason – they gave a US-leftist media/faculty-generated world-platform to a very obvious enemy and applauded his propaganda.

    Those in that auditorium deserve, and should receive, nothing but the utter contempt they so richly deserve from Americans who know instinctively that you simply don’t give such a propaganda platform to a (if not the) primary enemy during wartime – and demonstrate approval!

    Columbia should loose all federal funding – and any support whatsoever from anyone that claims to be a patriotic American. This was not about ‘free speech’ – this was about the idiotic leftist-idea that dialog with an entrenched and determined enemy can bring peace.

    Don’t let Lee Bollinger off the hook because of his fear-inspired last-minute list of ‘hard questions.’ Send him a letter demanding his resignation – and tell him to move to Iran where he belongs.
