I previously posted about the latest rash of scandalous photos coming out of Afghanistan showing U.S. military atrocities under Obama’s command, and wondering if the media would pick up on it the way they did when it was Bush’s army… Well, here’s a twist I wasn’t expecting: yes, one of the U.S. media, Rolling Stone, [...]
Jeffrey Goldberg, a correspondent for the Atlantic, cast a spotlight on yet another disgustingly overt example of pure bias in the mainstream media, particularly at the anti-Semitic Reuters newswire. He points to a Reuters news item which contains the following despicable sentences: Police said it was a “terrorist attack” — Israel’s term for a Palestinian [...]
In the [sparse] reporting of the Palestinians’ massacre of the Fogel family, several newspapers stand out with their distorted sense of “balance”, i.e., where they feel overwhelmingly uncomfortable describing the barbarity of the Palestinians without at least taking a swipe or two at the Israelis, no matter how patently irrelevant or disgustingly disrespectful it comes [...]
The Wicked Witch of the White House Press Corps

RabbiLive.com has posted an explosive video on YouTube showing Helen Thomas, the most famous member of the White House press corps, making unbelievably insensitive anti-Semitic remarks, telling Jews to “get the hell out of ‘Palestine’” and to “go home” to Germany and Poland. To add insult to injury, these comments were made while attending the White House Jewish Heritage Celebration!
Maybe the old hag forgot that the Jews lost all their “homes” around the time that they were herded up and marched into gas chambers and ovens. As Jeff Dumetz says, addressing that witch in a column he wrote immediately after that video broke, “you do remember the Holocaust right? Heck you’re old enough to remember the Crusades”! Or, maybe, being of Arab lineage herself, she just chose to rewrite the Holocaust completely out of history like so many of her people have already done.
She has since issued a half-hearted apology on her web site, saying, “I deeply regret my comments I made last week regarding the Israelis and the Palestinians. They do not reflect my heartfelt belief that peace will come to the Middle East only when all parties recognize the need for mutual respect and tolerance. May that day come soon.”
Isn’t it ironic that her heartfelt belief that peace will come when there is mutual respect and tolerance comes right on the heels of the most disgusting display of disrespect and intolerance? Spoken like a true hypocrite.
I join many others in calling for the job of this Nazi witch. Let her go back “home” to her parents’ Lebanon and find a job there.
UPDATE
The fallout has been rapid so far.
Already, her agent dropped her as a client, a prominent DC suburb high school canceled her appearance at their graduation, and an author who collaborated with her on her last book has issued a statement saying that he “will no longer be working with Helen on our book projects”.
