What Desmond Tutu really wants
Steve Apfel tries to get Archbishop Desmond Tutu to tell us what he really wants.Tutu and his flock must tell. They cannot have the Palestinian rights they pray for and Israel’s continued existence. It’s one or the other, on the terms they would impose on the Jews. Let’s be clear about this. If Norman Finkelstein, another high priest of Palestinian rights, can explain it clear enough, then so can Tutu.Read the whole thing.(BDS campaigners)…call it their three-tier. (They) want the end of the occupation, the right of return, and …equal rights for Arabs in Israel. And they … know the result of implementing all three… There’s no Israel!So there we are; it’s not possible to campaign for divestment, boycott and sanctions while at the same time acknowledging Israel’s right to exist. Not if you’re honest about it, not if you allow your audience to have a brain. When Tutu makes his three-tier demands he’s banking on Israel’s demise.
Who knows; when the United Methodists at their Spring 2012 conference showed him the door perhaps they understood what he had in mind.

That the formerly traditional, now very liberal United Methodist Church should show Tutu the door is very telling. BTW, this story wasn't covered by the leftard American MSM, as Tutu is one of the "progressives'" untouchable noble hero icons.
My guess is that the MSM didn't want to attack one of the most PC Christian churches. After all, O will sorely need every vote he can scrape up in November, musn't alienate the "progressive" but persuadable centrist Christian voters.
