President Ahmadinejad of Iran is scheduled to address the students of Columbia University in New York in about 15 or 20 minutes. The balloon goes up, I heard on the news, at 1:30 eastern time, USA.
People who would rather not have Columbia play host to the Iranian leader started gathering last night. They intend to make their feelings about having the ayatollahs' agent presence known.
I don't blame them a bit. Some of the demonstrators are expatriate Iranians who fled the Islamic Republic to preserve their freedoms, and quite possibly their lives.
