I concur with the following response from my agent to Helen Thomas' lamentable remarks about Israel, and will no longer be working with Helen on our book projects. -- Craig Crawford
"It is with a heavy heart that Nine Speakers, Inc. announces its resignation as the agent for Helen Thomas, Dean of the White House Press Corps. Ms. Thomas has had an esteemed career as a journalist, and she has been a trailblazer for women, helping others in her profession, and beyond. However, in light of recent events, Nine Speakers is no longer able to represent Ms. Thomas, nor can we condone her comments on the Middle East. Nine Speakers will continue to enthusiastically represent all of our other current and future clients." -- Diane Nine (ninespeakers@usa.net)

Open letter to Helen Thomas:
“Dear Ms. Thomas, I read on numerous Web sites the remarks attributed to you (and I did not see any denial) that we, the Jews must “get the hell out of Palestine” and “go home” to Germany or Poland. I am convinced that you are aware of the events which took place during the years 1939-1945 but, to be certain, I think it appropriate to tell you a little about my parents and their families.
My mother was sent to Palestine from Germany in 1933 with the rise of the Nazis to power by her farseeing parents. The British blockade, which prevented Jews fleeing the Nazi horrors from entering, made it difficult for her and only the pretext of coming on a tourist visit enabled her to enter and remain alive. Her older sister, Sarah, her husband and three children aged 12, 10 and seven did not succeed in finding a way of coming to Palestine and were sent by the Nazis to Poland and from there, their journey to the Auschwitz gas chambers, was short. I understand that it is there that you wish to send me.”

Lol! Skimming through the news here - I thought you said:
“Helen was a big monkey “Pole” dancer”. (visualize)
LOL! Sorry - had to share . . .
Before she left they were known as the Nazgul.
Of course, you have now planted a visual in my mind that only alcohol can cure. LOL
I would love to see Helen Thomas penniless and looking for a job in this great “Obama Boom”.
It’s official:
Helen Thomas — HATAH!
Golda Meir said that Richard Nixon wa the best friend that Israel ever had. And she was a LIBERAL!
Helen would always command a table in the back, get very drunk on a cheap red wine that was her favorite and curse the Jews and the entire Bush family. She was a very sloppy drunk, and her hate for Jews was no secret in DC.
Dianne would always try to keep a lid on things, usually not too successfully.

Because one was not blessed with good looks does not preclude one from being a beautiful person.
No maybe I should add a (sarc) to it, her quote was:
When asked where home was for Israeli Jews, Thomas offered “Poland, Germany... and America and everywhere e
“And you KNOW that ‘Ninespeakers” came to this decision only after a board meeting, convened to discuss the fallout and how it might affect their bottom line. It has nothing to do with principle.”
This gives me hope. It means there is real and actual fallout and it is being felt someonewhere up the money chain. This is a GOOD sign!
Will Diane change her name to Eight?
Isn’t she one of the 72 virgins?
Don’t expect the WH to come to her aid. Right before this she was attacking them on their response to the Flotilla thing.
Helen the witch was one breath away from saying, “go back to the ovens”, but I know I heard her catch herself.
Have you ever looked into the origins of the KKK?
As long as she stays in the White House press room, she has the tacit approval of the White House and the White House press corps. She serves as an encouragement and a rallying point to like minded bigots who hate Jews and want them out of Israel.
Golda Meier was “grandma” caliber. I would not have flinched to give her a hug.
HT on the other hand? “Dear God, thank you for not making me relation to Helen Thomas”. Amen.
