Breaking Israel News ran a series of photos and quotes from MLK, highlighting the reverend's love and support of Israel.

Said Reverend King in one quote from 1968: "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 means security and that security must be a reality."
