No one like to talk about this part of his message.
"And don't let anybody make you think that God chose America as his divine messianic force to be a sort of police man of the whole world. God has a way of standing before the nations with justice and it seems I can hear God saying to America "you are too arrogant, and if you don't change your ways, I will rise up and break the backbone of your power, and I will place it in the hands of a nation that doesn't even know my name. Be still and know that I'm God. Men will beat their swords into plowshafts and their spears into pruning hooks, and nations shall not rise up against nations, neither shall they study war anymore."
-King, Martin Luther. "Where do we go from here?" Speech, The Southern Christian Leadership Conference, Georgia, Atlanta, August 16, 1967:
