An influential security group with White House connections is campaigning to stop a posh New York hotel from hosting Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who is scheduled to address the United Nations later this month, The Post has learned.
United Against Nuclear Iran — a bipartisan group whose founders include Obama special Afghanistan envoy Richard Holbrooke and Middle East aide Dennis Ross — says the InterContinental The Barclay New York hotel is housing Ahmadinejad and the Iran delegation during the 64th UN General Assembly beginning next Tuesday.
The group said businesses in New York shouldn’t be taking “blood money” from an evil leader who sponsors terrorism, seeks nuclear arms, and dreams of destroying Israel.
