"Martin Luther King, Jr. felt uneasy as he and his wife, Coretta, landed in Jerusalem in the winter of 1959"

He would later call the trip “one of the most important occasions of my life.”

Prior to the Six-Day War, King was an outspoken supporter of Israel, which he famously called “one of the great outposts of democracy in the world.”

Israel had extended several invitations to King during the 1960s to visit the Jewish state as part of a wider effort to strengthen ties with the African American community. King accepted at least two official invitations but backed out both times. He also agreed to lead an interfaith pilgrimage of 600 to Israel in November 1967, but that didn’t pan out either. He was assassinated the following year.

He would have not been assassinated the next year if he obeyed Jews?
