NYC Rep. Calls on Condi to Deny Ahmadinejad Entrance to US
humanevents.com ^ | 09/21/2007 ET | Congressman Vito J. Fossella (R-NY)

Congressman Vito J. Fossella (R-NY) sent a letter to Secretary Rice yesterday asking the State Department to deny Ahmadinejad's visa. HUMAN EVENTS couldn't agree more with Rep. Fossella's sentiments. The letter is posted below.

The Secretary Department of State 2201 C Street NW Washington, DC 20520

Dear Madame Secretary,

It has been reported that Iranian President Mahmound Ahmadinejad has requested that he be allowed to visit the site of the 9/11 terrorist attacks when he travesl to the opening of the United Nations later this month. I believe that Mr. ahmadinehad has only one motivationfor wanteing to tour Ground Zero -- to mock the nearly 3,000 Americans who were killed on that day.

Mr. Ahmadinejad is the president of a country that is considered one of the world's most egregious state sponsors of terrorism. He is also a Holocaust denier who is committed to the destruction of Israel and fomenting terror and instability in the Middle East and beyond. He as American blood on his hands dating back decades from his alleged participation in the 1983 bombing of the marine barracks in Lebanon, which killed 241 soldiers, and his alleged role in the 1979 embassy hostage crisis. Evidence also links the Iranian regime to the delivery of improvised explosive devices (IED) to Iraq, which have killed countless American soldiers...

Ahmadinejad should be arrested as soon as he departs from his plane at JFK.

Taken hostage for 445 days would be better alternative. (smile)

> Ahmadinejad should be arrested as soon as he departs from his plane at JFK.

He ought to be politely invited to the US, taken to the Ground Zero site, arrested, put on trial, and when he is found guilty (for there is no reasonable doubt) he should be suspended by the neck from one of those construction cranes, like they seem to be so fond of using as gibbets in Tehran. There is no justice quite like Poetic Justice.

Then let’s see how keen they are to build nuclear weapons.

I absolutely do not understand the lack of leadership in this situation. It should be a non-issue. What happened to the Axis of Evil?

Um, where is the rest of the NYC congressional delegation on this?

Oh that's right, they're all Democrats. Who apparently implicitly support the right of Holocaust deniers who call for the incineration of Israel to be cordially received in their city.

He should not be allowed to step foot in this country. No how, no way. This is madness.

Condi will give him a free pass. It is quite disheartening to witness.

he'll thank the God he doesn't believe in for the America he wants to destroy, someday.

A serious penis-envy Napoleon complex haunts the little dictator, I think.

[cricket:Hitler to speak alongside Ahmadinejad. Like Nat sang with Natalie - and a few other techno-meetings - would be great to compare the dialog and the phiolosphy and the nazi roots inherent. . .that drives both these men.

Old Sarge:Now, THAT would be a YouTube Magnum Opus!]

Really it would be. . .just saw this header/reminder at LGF (LIttleGreenFootballs - http://littlegreenfootballs.com/):

Nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1939: Adolf Hitler.

Surely gives clarity to today's Lib-Left.

His mantra, I believe is. . .'America, MY WAY' - or not at all.

Ahmadinejad is a psychopathic, radical-Islamist meglomaniac. With an 'evil, mega Will' to match, of course. . .

Columbia Dean has now said it - as per Drudge Report. . .

We Would Invite HITLER to speak'. . .

Well, they said it! Of course, today. . .they can, in fact. . .

( Just ask Natalie how she invited her Father to sing along with her. . ).

Doesn’t this man understand that his request would require the administration to have someone with a set of testicles?
