Why would MLK dislike him?

Sadly, MacArthur did some things that MLK would not like. Newspapers exclaimed that MacArthur was self-centered. Sometimes, he trusted himself too much that he faced his consequences by getting dismissed from service and others.

What would MacArthur think of Sept. 11th?

I think that MacArthur would be enraged and declare war immediatly. He would think of a plan to get Taliban or any others who participated be executed like he did in the war with the Japanese. He would mourn for the families that were involved and the victims on the plane.
