We'll agree to disagree. Bollinger made Ahmadinejad into the personification of evil, but Ahmadinejad was able to turn it against him by playing the victim card. He was insulted as an invited guest. And some will come away saying that although they disagreed with much of what he said, they agreed with some things. Hitler used similar tactics.

Bollinger's grandstanding was to cover his own butt, not to lambast Ahmadinejad. It will be perceived as an insult to not only Ahmadinejad, but also the people of Iran. He is still a chief of state. He should never have been invited.

Yeah, one of the times Ahmadinejad received applause was when he turned against Bollinger.
