"I hope you don't mind if I do this," he began. "The world is mourning Bishop Tutu, who just died the other day. Can I remind the world that although he did some good things, a lot of good things on apartheid, the man was a rampant anti-Semite and bigot?"
Dershowitz went on to claim that Tutu had minimized the Holocaust and "compared Israel to Nazi Germany."
Dershowitz told Newsweek his remarks stemmed from Tutu's "criticism of Jews."
"He didn't talk about the Israel lobby, he talked about the Jewish lobby," Dershowitz said. "He minimized the suffering of Jews during the Holocaust. He said that getting killed in gas chambers was an easy death compared to apartheid. He said that Jews claimed a monopoly on the Holocaust. He demanded that Jews forgive the Nazis for killing them."
Tutu prompted an outcry after urging to pray for and forgive those responsible for Nazi atrocities after a visit to Jerusalem's Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial in 1989.
Tutu "encouraged others to have similar views and because he was so influential, he became the most influential anti-Semite of our time," Dershowitz went on.

They wanted to be in charge of running the country and they got their wish. And look what a swell job they're doing.

Let me add that Tutu was a Marxist posing as a clergyman.
Yes, Tutu was no saint that’s for sure.
