No, Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is not a professor at Columbia University in New York. On the other hand, associate professor of Arab culture and politics, Joseph Massad, sounds a lot like Iran's rogue leader.
An editorial this Monday in the New York Daily News recently urged Columbia to deny Massad's bid for tenure and brought to light Massad's assertions in his latest book Desiring Arabs, which examines the portrayal of Arabs on sexual issues. Interesting enough, but it is what he has said about homosexuality that has raised some eyebrows.
