Dear Jadi, Ahmadinejad didn't answer a single question at Columbia U in a straightforward manner. He lied, evaded, changed subjects and more. Oh, he did answer that "there were no homosexuals in Iran" and that "in Iran, women have genuine/real freedoms and are very respected". He is a liar as you've said. Unfortunately, some Americans and uninformed Westerners, for their own reasons, believe his was/is wonderful and very truthful !! I suggest to these people move to Iran, PERMANENTLY. Or, at least, read some of your previous posts. Otherwise, just because they have a problem with their own society, media, or President, they shouldn't offload it on Iranians by saying "there is nothing wrong with Ahmadinejad and he is wonderful" !!
