King's Anguish When He Condemned U.S. War Crimes and Foreign Policy Worthy of Emulation
A call for activists to make frequent use of the words of Martin Luther King Jr in his 1967 speech "Beyond Vietnam", condemning the U.S. war in Vietnam and its violent foreign policy toward countries in the third world. Being that the entire speech is relevant to our deathly predicament today, and King's stature being such that his outcry and accusations if often quoted could have a belated effect on foreign policy.

It is widely believed that King's condemnation of imperialist war madness and the capitalist "insanity of putting profit above humanity" cost him his life and cost the U.S. the loss of his much 'too effective' leadership.

Anti-war Alternate Media Again Allows 'Big Brother' to Handkerchief King Holiday
Tragically, progressive community's editors and writers, including Afro-American writers, again did NOT take advantage of the national holiday to feature martyred King's 1967 -68 anti-war, anti-imperialism, anti-international predatory capitalism speeches which since his assassination remain completely media suppressed from public attention; did NOT seek to publicize King's thundering condemnations into public awareness. Why?

Black History Month Ignored MLKJr. Condemnation of U.S. Wars, Predatory Capitalism
What keeps even black leaders from quoting Rev. King Jr.' '67 condemnations of U.S. wars and predatory trade? Why does no highly profiled American pick up where King left off? Quoting words of the only American allotted the national recognition of a public holiday honoring his birth, dangerous? Almost like quoting the bible. "My country, greatest purveyor of violence in the world! Silence is treason! Everyone must protest!"

Media Suppression of MLKjr's Condemnation of Vietnam War as an Atrocity Helps McCain
King's blistering condemnation of the Vietnam War as a crime against humanity, which made bold type headlines on the front pages of newspapers all over the world BEFORE McCain's 1st bombing mission, has been intentionally suppressed in commercial media and school books. If voters knew King's sermon on the true history of the heroic Vietnamese fighting invasions of 3 powerful nations, McCain's 'hero status' would evaporate.

MLK in 1967, "America is Approaching Spiritual Death!" (2011, America is Spiritually Dead)
Amrica loves napalm. Obama jokes his Hellfire Predator Drones will gettcha if you're not careful "you won't know what hit you." Amerka loves killing other nation's bad guys. Amerika hails hero politicians who served killing Vietnamese. NY Times, Wash Post called King a traitor, America reads on. Americans want to keep killing Yemeni, Pakistani, Somali, Afghani collaterally from the sky. Our HenryFord loved Hitler & vice versa.

OWS Oakland, anti-war demonstrating Iraq veteran head bashed in during police attack.If protesters had been holding photos of revered US national hero Reverend Dr. King and banners quoting King condemning Wall Street creating wars for "unjust overseas predatory investments while withholding investing in America at home," police would not have had the stomach or nerve to beat and attack with dangerous crowd control weapons.

King Would Have Stopped Vietnam and TODAY'S WARS as He Stopped Segregation!
King today, would be fighting against the wars in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Somalia, Yemen and a war on Iran. Blacks would be in the forefront with him. Blacks are dying in greater numbers than their percentage of the population today just as they did in Vietnam. King would see the war against terror as just as phony as the war on communism, would again denounce CIA support for predatory investments in cheap labor abroad.

King Would be Marching on Wall St. Where Wars Are Made - Not in Washington
Occupy Wall Street organizers are saying, why complain to congressmen when you can complain to the financial backers they are beholden to obey? Why beg the President when you can make trouble for the Wall Street VIPs that own him? Eventually, a critical mass of the public will awaken to what King awoke to.
