Desmond Tutu banned

Via Brian's Study Breaks I learn that Archbishop Desmond Tutu has had an invitation to speak at St. Thomas' University in Minneapolis/St. Paul withdrawn. It was feared that the presence of Nobel Laureate Tutu might offend those who lend Israel unqualified support.

Desmond Tutu is a great man and his stating that Israel is an apartheid state is based on his expertise. He lived under apartheid. He knows what it feels like. How it stinks. He was in Israel and he saw how it treats Palestinians. He felt and smelled the stench of apartheid in Israel.
