Give him a dose of good old fashioned Texas Charm. Show the world that Bush has no ill will toward the Iranian people or even Ahmadinejad and is not afraid to confront him on a personal level.
A photo op of him shaking Ahmadinejads hand with a big smile while the Iranian leader has a scowl or something would be very interesting. It would be one of those breathless moments that would have the eyes of the world on it. Maybe Bush could even get Ahmadinejad to take a swing at him or something. Now that would really be funny.
Instead it looks like Bush is purposely trying to avoid him.
After delivering his address at 11.30am local time, Mr Bush plans to
attend the traditional banquet for visiting presidents, princes and prime
ministers. A total of 144 world leaders and their foreign ministers will gather
for the feast, providing ample opportunity for unexpected diplomatic encounters.
But Mr Ahmadinejad, Iran's devout Islamist leader, has told the UN he will not
be attending the luncheon because alcohol is being served.
