#1 More from the New York Times
He is expected to arrive in New York on Sunday, address the United Nations on Monday, and leave the city on Wednesday morning, Mr. Kelly said. Mr. Ahmadinejad is also scheduled to speak at Columbia University on Monday. Lee C. Bollinger, the president of Columbia, said yesterday that Mr. Ahmadinejad would speak at a World Leaders Forum, but that strict conditions had been set.

A year ago, after he was invited to address the same Columbia forum he is scheduled to attend on Monday, Mr. Ahmadinejads invitation was withdrawn.

#2 If he wants to shed tears for the senseless destruction of human life by evil people, take him to the Holocaust Museum instead.

Have Elie Weisel escort him.

and make sure: NO PRESS ACCESS.

#6 I have sent the following EMail to :

Laura Ingraham
Sean Hannity
Hugh Hewitt
Dennis Miller
and
Giuliani's Campaign

"
I was wondering about the visit Iranian dictator, and nut case Ahmadnejad wanted to make to ground zero. In my mind such a visit, owing to his statements, is an affront to decency and most offensive. What folks in New York could do is - protest - surround the site, and deny him any access... I see on Drudge where he insists on going. Well if I were a New Yorker I might just do what I could to stop him from setting foot on, in a National sense, sacred ground.... A memorial site that such garbage as Ahmadnejad shouldn't be allowed anywhere near...

Anyone else like this idea?
