@Silverchild79,
I think the problem is that we already knew he was a pretty and cruel dictator. There is little point in inviting someone to a lecture and then telling them they're uninvited. It probably would have just been easier to have not invited him at all.

@Mandeville cv,
He's not a dictator. Not by any definition or measure. Somebody, anybody, PLEASE comprehend Iranian politics.

@Freeman15,
well in Iranian politics thisrelatively new established position of president holds no real power.

The president of Iran cannot direct the military or the government in truth he is a figurehead only .

Our mis treatment of him only helps to make him more popular in Iran because of that treatment and then may be he will be able to take some power from the Ioaltola ( spelling? and I don't care how its spelled)

THANK YOU. The Supreme Leader controls foreign policy and military affairs directly, and the president and first vice president share the helm as heads of government, with the president as chief diplomat.
