Leader of a country that supports terror groups, holocaust denier, possibly developing nukes, wants your biggest ally wiped of the map and somebody in the USA thought it was a good idea to let him go through passport control ( do you think they checked his bags?) I am of course talking about the leader of Iran Mr. Ahmadinejad who is on a visit to the USA.
Now while I know and accept that when it comes to UN business it's out of the Americans hands and they have to let him in he is not there on UN business, he has been invited by a university (Bill O'reilly is going to go nuts about that) and will be meeting other groups. he wanted to go to the WTC ara but New Yorks finest appeared to be the first Americans to say no to this guy.
Condoleeza Rice and George Bush both don't want him in the country so why is he there? it's not as if his visit will solve any of the issues I outlined above because he won't be talking to anyone in power. This is nothing more than a propganda trip for him and Iran and the US is letting him do that.
Maybe it's different in the US but I know that in the EU people like Robert Mugabe are banned from travelling inside the EU unless he is on official government business so why don't the US impose that kind of restriction on Ahmadinejad?
On a side issue but still connected was there not a point when he was seen as a good guy by the US?
