"Anti-Zionism = Anti-Semitism"
by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

If you are anti Zionist, you are racist.
"Anti-Zionism = Anti-Semitism"
- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
". . . You declare, my friend, that you do not hate the Jews, you are merely 'anti-Zionist.' And I say, let the truth ring forth from the high mountain tops, let it echo through the valleys of God's green earth: When people criticize Zionism, they mean Jews--this is God's own truth.
"Antisemitism, the hatred of the Jewish people, has been and remains a blot on the soul of mankind. In this we are in full agreement. So know also this: anti-Zionist is inherently antisemitic, and ever will be so.
"Why is this? You know that Zionism is nothing less than the dream and ideal of the Jewish people returning to live in their own land. The Jewish people, the Scriptures tell us, once enjoyed a flourishing Commonwealth in the Holy Land. From this they were expelled by the Roman tyrant, the same Romans who cruelly murdered Our Lord. Driven from their homeland, their nation in ashes, forced to wander the globe, the Jewish people time and again suffered the lash of whichever tyrant happened to rule over them.
"The Negro people, my friend, know what it is to suffer the torment of tyranny under rulers not of our choosing. Our brothers in Africa have begged, pleaded, requested--DEMANDED the recognition and realization of our inborn right to live in peace under our own sovereignty in our own country.
"How easy it should be, for anyone who holds dear this inalienable right of all mankind, to understand and support the right of the Jewish People to live in their ancient Land of Israel. All men of good will exult in the fulfilment of God's promise, that his People should return in joy to rebuild their plundered land.
This is Zionism, nothing more, nothing less.
"And what is anti-Zionist? It is the denial to the Jewish people of a fundamental right that we justly claim for the people of Africa and freely accord all other nations of the Globe. It is discrimination against Jews, my friend, because they are Jews. In short, it is antisemitism.
"The antisemite rejoices at any opportunity to vent his malice. The times have made it unpopular, in the West, to proclaim openly a hatred of the Jews. This being the case, the antisemite must constantly seek new forms and forums for his poison. How he must revel in the new masquerade! He does not hate the Jews, he is just 'anti-Zionist'!
"My friend, I do not accuse you of deliberate antisemitism. I know you feel, as I do, a deep love of truth and justice and a revulsion for racism, prejudice, and discrimination. But I know you have been misled--as others have been--into thinking you can be 'anti-Zionist' and yet remain true to these heartfelt principles that you and I share.
Let my words echo in the depths of your soul: When people criticize Zionism, they mean Jews--make no mistake about it."
From M.L. King Jr., "Letter to an Anti-Zionist Friend," Saturday Review_XLVII (Aug. 1967), p. 76.

King loved Israel

On March 25, 1968, less than two weeks before his tragic death, he spoke out with clarity and directness stating, "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

No, Zionism is the Zionist's murderous theft of Palestinian lands. And hebrews slaughtering and enslaving the Canaanite tribes will NEVER give Zionist a birthright of murderous theft of even 1 single rock in Palestine. NOT ONE SINGLE ROCK!!!
WHo cares about how ZIonist want to steal their neighbor's homeland. That would be a stupid as appeasing a rapist's assault on someone who is a hottie. Ohhh, but she gave me a stiffy. See? See how retarded such suppositions sound?
so thisis a 3000 year old grunge?

The Palestinians are not Cannanites.
There is no Caanite history in this land for thousands of years.
If there were you could tell me , oh, lets say "Who was the king of the Caananites in 1457?"
What was the response of the Caananites to the Crusades?
How many Caananites were killed in the Black Death?
If the caananites managed to live for 3,000 year without being noticed by history, they must be related to the aliens at Roswell, or to Elvis, who was just at my local mall.

Palestine is still not the Zionist's homeland. Hebrews were just one of many foreign invadors of the land.
And the ZIonist right to national self determination does NOT include any birthright of murderous theft of ANY palestinian lands just as the NAZI's right to self determination didn't include a birthright of murderous theft of Czechoslovakian lands even if germans once invaded and ruled Bohemia and Moravia in the Holy Roman Empire and Ethnic germans lived in the SUdaten mountains. Odd thing that, ZIonists and their enablers use the same BS rationalizations to be murderous thieves of palestinian lands that NAZIs used to be murderous thieves of Czech lands.
Thanks again for showcasing how the ZIonist enablers share the moral ethics of NAZIs.
have you considered suicide?

So this idiot is saying the Hebrews who conquered the caanites 3,000 years ago were "zionist" murderers, and that all Jews should be held collectively responsible for that?
Time for the loony bin, buddy

So this idiot is saying that Germans of the Holy Roman Empire who invaded and conquered Bohemia and Moravia were NAZIs and that ALL germans should be held accountable for their offenses.
Of corse that is a load of dung.

Rights group got it wrong: Gaza cancer patient who 'died while waiting for permit' still alive
Meital Yasur-Beit Or
Published: 05.13.08, 17:42 / Israel News
Stayin' alive: Muhammad al-Harrani, a father of six from Gaza diagnosed with cancer who reportedly died while waiting for a permit to enter Israel, miraculously "came back to life." This was not the result of a miracle, but rather, just part of the tactics used by al-Harrani's family in a bid to secure a permit for him.
Al-Harrani is currently awaiting an entry permit into Israel, so that he can undergo head surgery at Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center and receive radiation and chemotherapy treatment. At the end of April he was summoned to a questioning session at the Erez Crossing as part of the permit process, but the session was postponed by a week.
On the eve of Holocaust Remembrance Day, al-Harrani’s story was published. His family reported to the “Physicians for Human Rights” organization that he died. “The sick man could not withstand the wait for the permit,” claimed Ran Yaron, Director of the Occupied Territories Department who blamed the Shin Bet for adopting cruel policies against cancer patients.
However, the next day, the organization discovered that al-Harrani was still alive. Members of group estimated that his brother, who reported the death, “killed” him so he does not report to the questioning session.
“This is a rare case where a family member knowingly provided false information to the organization,” Physicians for Human Rights said. “Usually, the organization receives information from the families and from the hospitals, but in this case the information was received from the family and was not confirmed by the hospital."
Meanwhile, the Shin Bet sent the organization an angry response: “We view these harsh accusations on your part with great severity; not even a minimal inquiry into the facts was conducted.” The Shin Bet noted that due to the suspicion of his involvement in terror activities, al-Harrani was indeed called in for a security check, and it was indeed postponed by a week.
Since al-Harrani did not arrive at the questioning session, “he will have to bear the consequences or future damage that may be caused to him, in line with his refusal to cooperate in the procedure,” the Shin Bet said.
