You think that just started? Israel was easily around 50k+ dead Palestinians and at least 50% of the way to stealing the land they have now when MLK was in his 20’s. So yeah… That 50k is a generously low number. This shit started in the 1800’s and the murders and land theft began in the early 1900’s. ALL before the Holocaust. The Holocaust and antisemitism as the reasons for starting Israel are a lie when you carbon date the operations.
Israel didn’t control the West Bank or Gaza Strip until 1967, less than a year before MLK’s death.
I’m opposed to what Israel has been doing with those two territories. I’m not opposed to Israel’s existence, I don’t consider it any less legitimate than any other country; many countries were founded on violence or other horrible things that I don’t condone.
No, Israel didn’t officially occupy it then. Bit they were already there in mass killing Palestinians and agitating a war JUST like today in the West Bank. Sorry, your stance is wrong. He was a Zionist.
