Is Helen Thomas Wrong?

On May 27th, Helen Thomas, LONG time White House reporter did the unthinkable in American Society. She spoke her mind.

In what is being called an unforgivable anti-Semitic remark, Helen, who was off the record, not on the job and not at the White House, gave an "impromptu interview to a Web site called RabbiLIVE.com and asked about recent arrests of Palestinians by Israel, Thomas said Israelis should "get the hell of Palestine."

"Remember," Thomas said of the Palestinian people, "these people are occupied. And it's their land." In response to another question, she said Jews living in Israel should go "home -- [to] Poland, Germany . . . and America, and everywhere else."


Well, considering the tremendous and swift backlash Helen might as well have said, "I love Hitler, hate the Jews and oh, by the way, BP is innocent. What spill?"

We think it's ridiculous the way people have to retract their remarks every second in this country and have to apologize over and over for what they really believe.

Do you really think that Helen is anti-Semitic? We're more prone to the realization that she is almost 90 years old and is entitled to her opinion. We don't think she was being racist and instead we appreciate the honest remarks.

The State of Israel is a mess. The occupation of Palestine is real. Creating Israel in the first place seemed okay back then, but did it really? Millions of people were trying to get their lives back together after WWII and the notion that the Palestinians were losing their land seemed inconsequential at the time, but has been an ongoing problem since DAY ONE!

We're all sad for the Jews. Hitler and his extermination policies were the blackest stain on history and no one or group should ever have to endure anything like what happened to them.

The Holocaust was the worst thing that could happen to anyone, but does it give Jews the Universal Right to be Universally Right from then on?? Why can they never be questioned about anything? Why if you think any differently than "poor Jews, they were persecuted" does it make you an automatic Anti-Semite? Of course they were persecuted and yes, they are WRONG TO OCCUPY PALESTINE.

You know, the entire reason there is a Holocaust Denial (talking to you Mahmoud Ahmadinejad), is because of the entire set-up of the State of Israel. To anyone who wasn't involved in WWII, say the Middle East, specifically, Iran and Palestine, what they hell did they get when the war ended? Well, Palestine got occupied and an entire race thrown on them. This makes ignorant men like..ahem..Ahmadinejad question everything about the Holocaust then. You know the old axiom, follow the cigar smoke and find the fat man.

Well, to the 9 activists that were killed on a aid-giving, peace-keeping mission to Gaza last week, Israel is the fat man.

And Helen was right to call it out.

If World Peace rests entirely on the shoulders of the Jews of Israel, wouldn't it be in the world's interest for them to LEAVE ISRAEL and just give it back? If all we had to do to save the world was move, we would.

And we are NOT Anti-Semitic. We LOVE our Jewish friends, neighbors and co-workers. You know the ones who live "everywhere else" but Israel.
