Quote by: Athena January 14 was Martin Luther King Day, and government offices were closed to honor this day. This man like Mahatma Gandhi of India is a great man. What makes these men great? The stood for principles of human dignity and put their own lives on the line. They were strong peace, heard around the world and yet non violent. Okay--- Martin Luther King said "Whenever you segregate a minority you invediously discriminate against them." The Zionist movement did not segregate the mayority of Palestinians, but rather these Jews segregated themselves. Calling Israel a democracy is a pervertion of the meaning of that word, because by all intent Israel is for Jews. Regardless of how tolerant Israel is of minorities, these minorites must remain minorities and basically powerless, because Israel is for Jews. Every decision Israel makes is about keeping power in the segregated Jews hands. Further more, because the Zionist had to take this land with violence it is doomed to be a war state, used by both Britian and the US to again control of this region. Israel has no choice but to do the bidding of the more powerful nations that have given it power, money, military weapons. Congress may be saying no to the US invading Iran, but the US is supplying Israel with the planes and weapons to attack Iran. Back to Martin Luther King, he spoke out against the war in Vietnam when he could not control the violence of state police attacking his peaceful marchers, and later the violence of angry Black people. He made the connection between people believing they are superior and therefore have special rights to exploit others, and being intolerant of these others, and the war behavior of the US. Israel came to be out of segragation and violence, and is used by those who think think themselves superior and would rule by violence. Now shall ask the nature of the God who rules over all this? Is this a jealous, fearsome war God, or a God of love and forgiveness? For centuries Jews endured without making war, but I think with Israel, they became the tool of Satan, regardless how much they want to people of God.

First off Israel is the most culturally diverse country in the Middle East, which shoots down your argument. Second, maybe the Palestinian terrorist should learn something from MLK. But they rather take lessons from the KKK on bombing and blind racially motivated violent acts.
