There's nothing rational to refute about his statement, which was an unsupported bald assertion. He conflated two things without justification.
Being against Zionism does not necessarily equate to being anti-Semitic.
You can dance around that fact all day long, but it won't change reality.
And Martin Luther King probably never said those words , either. Another poster previously pointed out the sources Roudy uses that purportedly record the words of Martin Luther King have been proven in the past to lack credibility.
Being againt Zionism is being a moral person, being a person with a conscience.
I am sure if Martin Luther King was here now he would be against Zionism today.
And if you want to see proof of that, you can see his followers, who were there with Martin Luther King in the Civil Rights Movement, visiting the Israeli Occupied village of Nabi Saleh and standing on a roof crying as they watched children attacked by Israel with tear gas canisters and rubber bullets. They told the Palestinian villagers what they saw in the Occupation, in Occupied Nabeh Saleh was just like what blacks experienced in America, pre Civil Rights Movement days.
Phil Weiss, founder of Mondoweiss, recently visited Occupied Nabi Saleh, in November, and he speaks about the visit to Nabi Saleh by a delegation of the Martin Luther King center for nonviolent change in October.
"Still these rural people carry on. And the international attention gives the villagers hope that they will one day prevail, and that the settlement will be removed from their land and their spring returned to them. Iyad Tamimi, a member of the popular committee, described an inspiring visit in October by a delegation from the Martin Luther King Center for non-violent change. Two dozen veterans of the civil rights movement came to Nabi Saleh, and because they didn't want to be exposed to tear gas and rubber bullets, sat in chairs on the roof to observe. It was not theater to them. It was their own history. Most of them were crying, Iyad said; they told him this is exactly what they experienced in the south. The visitors assured the villagers that Nabi Saleh will prevail, as the civil rights demonstrators in the south prevailed"

Being against Zionism is being Anti-Semite. You know people don't accept antisemitism with open armes like they once used to, so you cover it with being "Anti-Zionists". But every mask, is this, just a mask. And Zionism, like JUDAISM, will survive.
"But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread abroad." (Exodus 1:12)
pull that fat head of yours out of your ass. that is like saying being again st communism is anti-asian, or being against socialisn is being anti-anglo saxon.
binhg against zionism is being against colonialism period.
