University of St. Thomas banns Desmond Tutu from speaking for making comments that “some people judged to be anti-Semitic and against Israeli policy”.
Who is this someone you ask….. it’s the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas.

1. You misrepresented the article. The article does not say “it is the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas.” Quite the contrary it says that it is one person from that council + a few rabbis, members of the faculty. Others took the opposite view.
2. Poor Desmond Tutu’s freedom of speech has hardly been impeded upon. He never shuts up; mostly to attack Jews or Israel. Don’t you think St. Thomas administration has a write to uninvite who they invited? Big deal.
3. He figured us out anyway when he stated: “People are scared in the United States to say wrong is wrong because the Jewish lobby is powerful - very powerful. Well, so what? Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin were all powerful, but in the end they bit the dust.†[Don’t you just love this touch - comparing Jews to Hitler?].
Now that he knows there is no point hiding that we are omnipotent.
4. I have to admit that he is indeed a very godly and forgiving man. In 1989 he visited Yad Vashem memorial to the millions of Jews murdered by the Nazis only to pray for the Nazi murderers and to lecture the Jews on how they should not defend themselves.
5. Never realized that Minneapolis newspapers are so popular. It is the second time in the last 24 hours that I find someone who reads them . The last link was from, in the words of a British judge, “racist, anti-Semite, holocaust denier and a liar” - David Irving: http://www.fpp.co.uk/online/index.html
