    Interview: Should President Ahmadinejad Speak At The UN?

     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     JoelGraham documented a group of people demonstrating in New York City against President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran from speaking at the United Nations. He says although the group of protesters was small, they were very vocal. 'They were claiming that Ahmadinejad was directly responsible for the "murder" of their relatives. That executions without trial need to end and that he is a terrorist and has no right to speak at the UN,' he said. He says most of the demonstrators were from Iran, and Fara, the woman interviewed in the video, was representing the group as a spokesperson during the day of the demonstration.

    On Saturday, September 22, I took photos and interviewed a group of people protesting the arrival of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran. He arrived during the night and will speak at the UN General Assembly on Wednesday. The protesters had gathered outside the Warwick Hotel in Manhattan. Fara Hossein from Great Britain, spoke on behalf of those present.
