Time To Stand Up For Israel

Islam: Spread across many regions over time through empire expansion, trade networks, and cultural influence. Judaism: Historically tied to one geographic homeland, with communities living in diaspora rather than forming expanding states.

The historical record tells a far more complex and often troubled story.

The “Palestine passport” myth debunked. Yes, there were Palestine passports before 1948. No, they do not prove an Arab Palestinian state ever existed. 📌 Those passports were issued by Britain, under the League of Nations Mandate. 📌 They were held by Jews, Muslims, and Christians alike, including Golda Meir and David Ben-Gurion. 📌 “Palestinian” was a geographic label, not a nationality. 📌 Palestine had no government, no army, no parliament, no sovereignty. Colonial travel documents are not proof of statehood. They prove one thing only: British rule. History doesn’t bend to modern slogans.

This quote reflects Martin Luther King Jr.’s actual public stance after the 1967 Six-Day War. In interviews and speeches in 1967–1968, including a major address to the Rabbinical Assembly in New York just days before his assassination, MLK stated that Israel must exist, has a right to exist, and described it as “one of the great outposts of democracy in the world.” King supported peace and justice for all peoples and he was clear that denying Israel’s right to exist was not peace, but injustice. .
