Helen Thomas: The US Has No Right To Give People Freedom
Expose the Left ^ | February 18, 2006 | Ian

Posted on 02/18/2006 2:13:08 PM PST by West Coast Conservative

From Real Time with Bill Maher last night:

DAN SENOR: For three decades we’ve been told by the foreign policy establishment that people in the Arab world don’t want the right to vote, they don’t want to live in a free society—

HELEN THOMAS: They’ve never been told that.

SENOR:—and, and we’ve been consistently told that, just like we were told about the Russians, just like we were told about the Chinese and the fact is, when we’ve given the Afghanis the vote—

THOMAS: They don’t want to be invaded; they don’t want to be killed.

[applause]

SENOR: Ok. But when we give—

THOMAS: And they don’t want to be forced, they can be The Grateful Dead.

SENOR: When we give Afghanis and Iraqis the right to vote, they turned out in the millions and millions, in the last election 11 million Iraqis—

THOMAS: You have no right to give these people whatever. They are a sovereign nation, you invaded them without any cause, they did nothing to us.

[applause]

THOMAS: I think it’s terrible to invade a country that did nothing to us and did not attack us.

SENOR: Did you think that it was a good thing or a bad thing that millions, and millions, and millions of people who lived in tyranny now can go to the ballot box.

THOMAS: I think that it would be a good thing if would say how many thousands of people you killed.

Poor Helen. She is such an unhappy, hardened cynic.

If WJ Clinton had freed the Iraqis, Helen would be glorifying him.

THOMAS: You have no right to give these people whatever. They are a sovereign nation

Helen thinks that there is an unalienable right for a dictator to rule his country. Helen doesn't think that there is an unalienable right to freedom.

Helen is a dope.

Helen Thomas hangs up on Hugh Hewitt.( about half way down the site.) She's so nasty she doesn't even relize it. Awsome destruction of her by Hewitt.

Helen Thomas thinks that the Aghan based Taliban supported Al Qaeda did not attack the US on 9/11?
