The Hypocrisy of Columbia University
How is it that Columbia University has no problem inviting Axis of Evil tyrant, President Ahmadinejad of Iran, as a speaker at the University, but they won’t let ROTC operate on campus? They claim ROTC is unwelcome because they condone the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy of the armed forced with respect to sexual orientation.
Ummm, has anyone told Columbia what Iranians do with homosexuals? The maximum punishment is public execution!

Do you really think those are two comparable instances? Banning an organization from recruiting on your campus is very different from having a public debate with someone you yourself describe as “a petty and cruel dictator,” as Columbia’s president did when he introduced Ahmadinejad.
