WASHINGTON, March 4, 2005 (IslamOnline.net) – Arab Americans have taken a swipe at "racist" and "outrageous" remarks against Helen Thomas, one of the first female journalists and the dean of the White House Press Corps, because of her Arab descent.
"Ann Coulter uses this context as an opportunity for Arab bashing and perpetuating Arab phobia," Arab-American Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) (ADC) said in a statement, a copy of which was obtained by IslamOnline.net, on Thursday, March 3.
In an article published on February 23, Coulter, a syndicated writer and journalist, said that "press passes can't be hard to come by if the White House allows that old Arab Helen Thomas to sit within yards of the president."
Her article was intending to refute claims that the White House denies press passes due to political motivations.
"The implicit characterization of Helen Thomas as a threat to the president due to her Arab-American background is outrageous," the ADC said.
Coulter has a long history of insensitive and outright racist remarks and attitudes toward people of Arab descent and Muslims, the remarks that drew concern of several other civil rights groups in the country.
Among her controversial comments, Coulter said that "we should invade Arab countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity."
Leading Reporter
The Arab-American group called Thomas, of Lebanese origin, one of the first female journalists and dean of the White House press corps.
She has struggled with the White House to guarantee women reporters would have the same access and privileges as their male counterparts.
As a result, she has interviewed or questioned every elected American President since John. F. Kennedy. Thomas is known to have had personal relations with American presidents.
The ADC said it was deeply distraught over Coulters' repeatedly outrageous claims and attitudes towards Arab-Americans, Arabs and Muslims.
"Her articles often compound paranoia, and outright racism in order to make otherwise unsubstantiated points," the statement said.
"Her attack on Helen Thomas is especially offensive considering Thomas's stature as a pioneer for female journalists, who paved the way for equal access to the White House," it added.
In an earlier comment, the right-wing writer said that "ethnic profiling is the only reasonable security measure that has been thwarted in the war on terrorism."
Coulter is one of the most famous right-wing writers, whose books make best sellers in the United States, according to IOL Correspondent.
She is also a repeated guest in the famous TV shows such as ABC's Good Morning America and Fox News' O'Reilly Factor.
ADC called on those concerned over Courtier’s article to call her or write a letter to Universal Press syndicate to express worry at the remarks.
A recent nation-wide poll, conducted by the Cornell University, showed that at least 44 percent of the Americans backs curbing Muslims’ civil rights and monitoring their places of worship.
A May 2004 report released by the US Senate Office Of Research concluded that Arab Americans and the Muslim community in the US have taken the brunt of the Patriot Act and other federal powers applied in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks.
The Islamonazi-apologists like CAIR try repeatedly to reassure us about the "religion of peace" but:
Why is the religion of peace directly responsible for 28 out of the 30 violent conflicts raging in the world today?
Why is the religion of peace responsible for the vast majority of chattel slavery in the world today?
Why is the religion of peace responsible for the vast majority of terrorism in the 20th and 21st Centuries?
Why are the practitioners of the religion of peace routinely slaughtering unarmed practitioners of every other religion wherever they can get away with it?
Why does the religion of peace call for the murder of anyone who converts from the religion of peace to another religion?
Why do so many of the believers of the religion of peace look forward to the opportunity to rape 72 virgins in heaven if they die while killing innocent women and children of other religions? Is it a god they worship, or just sex? If a god, then shouldn’t heaven have more to do with him than their libidos?
Why do the leaders of the religion of peace routinely issue fatwas (death warrants) for anybody who questions their holy book of peace and their holy prophet of peace?
Why is the religion of peace responsible for the sexual mutilation of millions of little girls and the savage oppression of women?
Why did millions of the practitioners of the religion of peace laugh, cheer and dance in the street because 3,000 innocent men, women and children were murdered by seventeen men who supposedly “hijacked” the religion of peace? And why don’t the real practitioners of the religion of peace condemn the supposed “hijackers” of their religion? Why the deafening silence? Why the smiles? Why the cheers and high fives?
Perhaps I just don’t understand this whole PEACE thing. Did the definition of the word change, or is somebody just blowing a lot of smoke?
Only since I saw it the first time.
LOL! :^D

Helen Thomas: Sea Hag!
thats right....there werent ANY !!!
I had no idea Helen was a Muslim. She really is a Muslim? She's just a royal pain in the butt no matter what she is. Why doesn't she retire. If I looked like that, I sure wouldn't want to have my face in the public all the time. She sure is a thorn in the Conservatives side. I guess she likes it that way.
For a long time after 9/11 we always had several FBI, etc. cars around and about ~ all the time, 24/7.
Oh I know it! Gives me the shudders.

She said it on her own website.
Oh, Well, doesnt' sound like she was being racist to me. Just a comment, We call Chirac a Frenchman all the time, no difference.
Bigots like you sicken real Americans.
See post #10 in this thread. Then try to refute the facts.
What facts? That some Muslims do bad things? Duh. Some Jews do bad things too. So do some Catholic Priests.
I'm not even denying there are more problems with Islam then with other religions, in their current culture, and very arguably with their core doctrine.
But if you want to go around accusing people of being 'Muslim lovers', you are nothing but bigoted trash. You and the jihadist deserve each other.
LOL! They called Joe McCarthy names, too, but when the KGB files were released in the '90s, it turned out that old Joe was right all along.
Dang! I couldn't find a decent one of
RW as "Popeye" with his pipe!So I made my OWN!! :^D
WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE NINETEEN 911
HIJACKING TERRORISTS WERE ARAB?Uh, 19 of 19, I believe. What do I win??? :^D
Islam longterm might cause the world to go into a bigger world war of all the civilized world against them.
The way they keep producing homicide bombers and terrorists, at some point they are going all die or revamp their whole belief systems to a more peaceful existence.
Joe Stalin was second, and Adolph Hitler was third.
The Arabs really weren't in any shape to undertake widespread terror, although they did get a lot of press coverage.
Don't waste a perfectly useful word like "bigot" when you can use the much more accurate "ignorant".
