In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, pro-Israeli group Stand With Us has placed two ads on 50 billboards with across the city, including one ad which features a quote from Dr. King in support of the Jewish-majority state.

The billboard depicts King’s declaration that “Israel must exist and has the right to exist, and is one of the great outposts of democracy in the world.”

Israel is the only country outside the U.S. that also commemorates Martin Luther King Day, according to Stand With Us spokeswoman Jennifer Kutner.

Mandela was a Communist murderer. Good riddance.

Israel is the only country outside the U.S. that also commemorates Martin Luther King Day, according to Stand With Us spokeswoman Jennifer Kutner.

Why does Israel celebrate a Communist, Plagiarizer, Philanderer? Is it because he voted for Richard Nixon 3 times?

Who voted for Nixon 3 times?

[Cowboy Bob]

MLK. Many people here are proud to say that MLK was a Republican. So, of course he voted for Nixon in 1952, 1956 and 1960.

If he was a Republican, why would he vote for the Democrats...right?

[samtheman]

I didn’t know.
