RabbiLIVE.com did a quick interview with Thomas, who works for Hearst Newspapers, last week. Her comments toward Israel were illuminating.

Perhaps Ms. Thomas has no grasp of history before 1948. Or, perhaps, her anti-Semitism blinds her to it. Has our national position changed so much toward Israel that we are willing to allow such idiocy to spew from our White House press corps?
Someone should give Ms. Thomas, who obviously lived during the period of World War II, a short primer on what happened to the Jews during those years. If she were so inclined, I could give her details of Israel's history, beginning with the Hebrew/Jewish occupation of those lands from Abrahams original entry through the Exodus from Egypt. Then we could discuss the establishment of the Jewish monarchy through the Davidic line and the Philistine occupation of the area of Gaza. Incidentally, the Philistines were Phoenicians, not Islamic Arabs.
She may be interested to hear that the Jews were taken from their home by Assyrians in 722 B.C and the Babylonians under Nebuchadnezzar in 586 B.C. They later returned to their homeland to find the remnant of Jews surrounded by hostile peoples against whom they were forced to defend themselves, leading to the reconstruction of the wall of Jerusalem. Alexander occupied Palestine as he marched through the region in 332 B.C. The Romans conquered Jerusalem in 63 B.C., eventually destroying the Temple in A.D. 70.
The result of the Jewish War with Rome and subsequent Roman rule was a dispersal of the Jewish people throughout the Empire, although many Jews remained in Palestine. Through the years following the fall of the Western Roman Empire (after A.D. 476), a large percentage of the population of the Holy Land was Jewish. ...

No thanks, Helen. You go take a shower with the nice guard.
will someone pull that old crone off the stage please?
Not to be disrespectful, but does Helen need to head to the “shower”? She already resembles the Living Dead.
She’s an idiot! Dementia? She seems to be even worse than usual. What an ignorant, uneducated, evil harridan!
Excellent :D
The Franks should go back to Eastern Europe?
The Turks should go back to Asia?
The Hispanics should go back to Spain?
The Americans should go back to Europe?
The Amerindians should go back to Siberia?
No? Why not?
As I said previously today, the normal rules do not seem to apply to Jewish people and Israel.
I would say “I wonder why?”, but I know why.
I’d like to send Helen Thomas to Gaza so she can live amongst her kind permanently.
Another National Socialist Democrat supporter of der Fuehrer is heard from. Makes you wonder if she dated Himmler before the war.
FUBO
I guess Helen took some time out from reading her daily copy of Der Stuermer.
How did this happen? Why is it politically correct to hate Jews these days? This is absolutely outrageous, creepy, and disgusting.
Retire / Fire Helen from her job ...simple enough, it needs to happen
As an aside, imagine the caterwauling from the Left if someone like Pat Buchanan made a similar comment ...
I’m literally speechless. Go back to Germany??? Perhaps Helen should take a little vacay at Auschwitz for a few days to attempt to understand why Jews wouldn’t want to go “home”. She should also take a spin through the Holocaust museum sometime. The pile of shoes made me feel sick when I was there in 8th grade...perhaps something will click for her.
Seriously, what’s next? Are they going to start calling for a celebration of Japan on December 7th now?
I have some suspicions as to why, but it is really disturbing to see people taking free shots like this with no consequence. If she’d taken a pot shot at another group, countless people would be horrified. As it is, the only people horrified are those with common sense that understand Israel is our only ally in that region.
Helen’s the one that needs to go home.... To Hell!
And World War I, and the Civil War, and the War of 1812, and...
Hag from hell needs to find the nearest cliff and jump off cause her brain has certainly left the body....
aw c’mon,she’s just proving that her inner beauty mirrors her outer...
