Helen Thomas Should Have Quit Sooner

Incredible how most of the media left the US off of Helen Thomas's list of places Jews should go. Like she was condemning them to Concentration camps like Gaza or something! But let this be a lesson to any US media person who dissents from the Zionist media line. AIPAC will end your career. I don't feel sorry for Helen, I feel sorry for the rest of us who are the victims of zealot zionism.

Dear John Aloysius Farrell, I am Polish-American and your uniformed remark equating Poland with Germany in persecuting Jews is a horrendous mistake and basically a big propaganda lie. Another racists comment about the world being graced by Jewish intellectualism is fitting the whole spin you presented in this article. Every nation graced the world, Jews are not exception. You are pointing with one finger at someone and three are pointing back at you, did you notice that? I think it's you walking on the native American land harbouring ugly feelings of contempt for people who think differently than you. Maybe it's time to check your mental powers or maybe not. Maybe you are just a hypocrite.

Ok, since we're sending people home - send Helen Thomas back to Lebanon. Send the "Palestinians back to Jordan. Oh, and Chief BlueHawk just said that you should go home and get the H#ll out of his country. The only people on this planet that are actually living in their home are the Jews in Israel.

To begin your dribble with excuses is very telling on where you stand ~ great for us, as your true colors come shining through! Not so great for you as you will see in future comments and the backlash you will most definately generate. You want so badly to point the finger of blame at the guy who shot/posted the video, but you can't truthfully do that, so you just pose the question anyway. Pitiful excuse for journalism. Well let me answer your rhetorical question - YES! ABSOLUTELY he should have posted it on the internet! What a great tool to expose journalists who are most definately influenced by their personal feelings [regardless of your psuedo journalistic code] and allows me to make a fully informed decision on who/what I want to view/read and how I should judge their work. As for Helen Thomas, she is a racist and I now know to never place any value on anything she has to say ~ THANK YOU INTERNET! Keep up the good! Expose the media bias and let me decide who I want read and/or listen to!!!

What did Helen say that was lie? Its just amazing to me how incredibly arrogant Israel is. And how incredibly stupid Americans are, do they teach history in the schools in America?
Fact: Israel is occupying Palestine? Wake up America and Stop supporting the Butchers of Israel..

With the vile and Anti-Semitic Helen Thomas now forced into retirement, THANK GOD, the dimlibbers are spinning her words as a mere slip of the tongue and dismissing the "slip" as an misspoken moment due to old age. Is that the case? Absolutely not!
Helen Thomas' words were what they were. They were words which came from the heart. GOD's inerrant Word has once again been fulfilled with respect to that which is hidden in the dark (including the darkened regions of one's heart and mind) will come out and be exposed in the light.
Another extraordinary example of the above referenced truth is found in the video clip of MO's speaking out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6M7Rp_Ghv6k
Those who attempt to dismiss the above as mere slips of the tongues only prove that they neither know the the Inspired and Inerrant Scriptures or the power of GOD.

Did you ever wonder why Hitler hated the Jews? While doing research recently going through old newspapers, I found an article in the Kane County Standard (Kanab, Utah) for 2/16/1934. Someone had interviewed a young Utahn named Dr. Lowell L. Bennion (sound familiar?). Bennion had studied in German and rattled off some reasons why some/many/most (?) Germanys hated Jews.
Bennion stated that in 1925, Jews made up only 1% of the population, yet they had “gained control of large chain stores, banks, and other industrial enterprises” in addition to being very influential in “the stage, the opera, the university, the laboratory”.
In America today, Jews make up somewhere between 1.2% & 1.7% of the population. Yet they make up about 10% of Congress, and surely more than 1.7% of the media, banking, business, entertainment, etc. Also, there are 3 or 4 (?) Jews in the Obama Administration, a pretty high percentage considering their proportion of the population. Also, Jews make up 11% of our Supreme Court. If Elena Kagan is confirmed, it will then be 22% Jewish. Would this be right?
The reason for this complaining is American support of Israel. We got nailed on 9/11 because this country has supported Israel & Zionism right from the git-go. Ben Laden has admitted responsibility for the 9/11 attacks because of America’s support for Israel; that’s always been his first & foremost reason for hating us.
Now, in the last few days, the vast majority of the world is mad as hell at the Israeli blockade of Gaza, and the murder of 9 Turkish citizens on the high seas and in international waters; yet whatever Israel does, good old Uncle Sam supports it.
I suggest it’s time to revisit that vote taken at the UN on November 29, 1947 regarding the partition of Palestine. Right now, I think the world would vote no for legitimizing the Jewish state in West Asia.
Also, I see similarities between the situation in this country today, and what it was like in Germany in the 1920’s & ‘30’s. If we had less Jewish/Zionist/Israeli influence, it would be easier to dump Israel once and for all, and make peace with Islamiya.

Helen Thomas, the White House correspondent, made a statement a while back that went something like this, “The Jews in occupied Palestine should leave and go back to Poland, Germany or elsewhere”.
Thanks Helen, it’s nice to have someone in your position just tell the truth; and the truth is, the creation of the Jewish state of Israel was the biggest mistake in UN history. And the biggest mistake in American history has been to back that Zionist regime. For that support, America was given 9/11.
However, for that statement of truth, she was either urged or forced to quit her job. This proves once and for all, that you can criticize anything in the world--except Jews & Israel. Too bad, the Truth & Justice For All Committee will miss you Helen.
