U.S. Students Give Ahmadinejad a Standing Ovation
(JTA) Josh Lipowsky - During his recent visit to the UN in New York, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad hosted a private dinner and briefing at the Warwick Hotel with more than 150 students and professors from Harvard, NYU, Rutgers, the University of Pennsylvania, Penn State, Columbia and Stony Brook. Ahmadinejad was greeted with a standing ovation by these "future leaders" when he entered the room. Students later addressed him as "Your Excellency" during the question-and-answer session. One even prefaced her remarks by saying it was "a pleasure" to be in his presence.
