MLK, Jr. & the Jews: King Was a Fan of Israel, Supported Its Security

“When people criticize Zionists they mean Jews, you are talking anti-Semitism.” http://xrl.us/ZionistMLK

…I didn’t say it. MLK did

…I went and checked google about a week ago for this info and the top link went to a page that said the quote was contextually wrong, but then didn’t elaborate. Google has since fixed the link. kind of funny because I made a url shortner for it and everything. the address is the same, but the listing is now different.

“Peace for Israel means security, and we must stand with all our might to protect its right to exist, its territorial integrity. I see Israel as one of the great outposts of democracy in the world, and a marvelous example of what can be done, how desert land can be transformed into an oasis of brotherhood and democracy. Peace for Israel means security and that security must be a reality. –Martin Luther King, Jr., March 25, 1968 speech.”

Martin Luther King: Philo-Semite, Fan of Israel, NOT Pan-Muslim

Earlier today, I wrote about Martin Luther King, Jr.’s statement at Harvard that attacks on “Zionists” are anti-Semitism. I wrote about it because Islamic extremists are hijacking the memory of Dr. King to further their anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, and anti-national security causes. But there is more. Congressman John Lewis, who worked closely with his friend, King, wrote this column, below, in the San Francisco Chronicle in 2002. Although I don’t share most of John Lewis’ politics (he is a liberal Democrat), he’s pro-Israel and wrote this column to note that his famous friend was, as well.

What Martin Luther King Jr. thought of giving money to terrorists

Giving money to the Islamic world will not work. it didn’t work with the Arabs in the 80s and 90s thanks to Jimmy Carter and it didn’t work with terrorists like the VC in our parent’s era. sending your tax dollars to Islam will fail!
