Another reason to appreciate Martin Luther King

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Via Rick over at Wizbang, here's yet another characteristic of Martin Luther King, Jr. that separates him from the vast majority of civil rights leaders today: He was very pro-Israel and adamantly opposed to the views of [Islamists:

From Dr. King's own words:

"I see Israel as one of the great outposts of democracy in the world...

...as 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."

"When people criticize Zionists...

...they mean Jews."

"I solemnly pledge to do my utmost to uphold the fair name of the Jews -

...because bigotry in any form is an affront to us all."
