MLK Jr. would weep at today’s antisemitism

One of the greatest Americans ever born in my opinion is Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. I have to believe that if he were alive today, he would be weeping at the sight of demonstrators calling for the wiping out of a people simply because they are Jewish.
The irony of it all is magnified in that those who normally are the first to label anyone who does not agree with them as being a racist, are the ones who are acting in a blatantly racist fashion.
Make no mistake. Antisemitism is racism, and racism is never right.
