It’s quite remarkable and disturbing how often I see conversations with Zionists and Israel supporters devolve into this
(hexbear.net)
“Palestinians have tried everything. Israel keeps trying to ethnically cleanse them” “They haven’t but I wish they did”
I’m too tired to try to deeply psychoanalyze this or whatever but it feels like they deep down understand their position relies on defense of Empire and presupposition of their monopoly of violence against rowdy upstarts, and when backed into a corner they start running their mouths without the usual window dressing.
MLK was fallible, Israel was clearly what it was then. The genocide began in 48 and was apparent then as well, to those with their eyes open.
“Did the Zionists have the legal or moral right to invade Arab Palestine, uproot its Arab citizens from their homes and seize all Arab property for themselves just based on the "religious" claim that their forefathers lived there thousands of years ago? Only a thousand years ago the Moors lived in Spain. Would this give the Moors of today the legal and moral right to invade the Iberian Peninsula, drive out its Spanish citizens, and then set up a new Moroccan nation ... where Spain used to be, as the European zionists have done to our Arab brothers and sisters in Palestine?...”

Thank you for this information.
Of course! MLK was a seminal figure, but nobody is perfect
