Re: Iranian President
Bollinger’s behaviour shows his lack of class. Insulting a guest speaker with personal opinions (such as saying that Ahmedijenad struck his as a cruel dictator) before he has a chance to even speak just wouldn’t fly in England.
A remember seeing very similar behaviour demonstrated by that American reporter who had an interview with Ahmedinejad last year as well. Again, I’ve never seen Englishmen get that rude in an interview with the leader of a country.
There would have been ample and more appropriate opportunity to rip into Ahmedinejad during the questions and answers section if Bollinger had spared the insults he started with.
