Where did you get the idea that Ahmadinejad is a dictator? Ever heard of the "Supreme Leader" of Iran? Ahmadinejad is not the Supreme Leader.
Supreme Leader of Iran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

To refer to Saddam Hussein as a dictator would be a lot more accurate.

I think it's safe to say that Mahmoud is a dictator -- only with a small dic.

Exactly why it made much more sense to let Ahmanutjob to publicly display who/what he is than to attempt to keep him under wraps.

I do think that President Bolinger had his plan, and succeeded.

And to call out Columbia University for attempting and succeeding in bringing to light the thoughts of Iran's President is rather nonsensical to say the very least.

If we call ourselves a free country, and a union for speaking out against and for issues--what better way that to invite the adversary to show his or her spots.
