Tutu's War on Israel, Jews

(Ynet News) Giulio Meotti - Archbishop Desmond Tutu's role in the fight against South African apartheid in the 1980s gained him the Nobel Peace Prize. However, the Archbishop's iconic voice has also found another cause no less popular: The global campaign against Israel and the Jewish people. Tutu just promoted an appeal to the U.S. pension fund of the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association for cutting the partnership with Israeli companies. He also helped the Australian Marrickville Council approve a boycott of Israel's goods. Tutu also promoted the boycott of all Israeli goods by the U.S. Food Co-op and he became the poster leader of the Western NGOs promoting campaigns for divestment and sanctions against the Jewish state. The writer, a journalist with Il Foglio, is the author of A New Shoah: The Untold Story of Israel's Victims of Terrorism.
