There is one famous journalist who’s unafraid to denounce Barack Obama’s agenda. Legendary left-wing journalist Helen Thomas appeared on Tuesday’s Democracy Now on radical Pacifica Radio, and denounced Obama’s acceptance of pro-Israel U.S. foreign policy: "I think that Obama, during the campaign, made many promises, as every president, potential president does to Israel, that they seem somehow bounded by their promises, promises to uphold all Israeli goals. I don't see how the U.S. can provide F-16s, gunships, Apache gunships, phosphorus, possibly phosphorus, and cluster bombs and so forth to kill helpless people, children who are starving to death."
Thomas also denounced the White House press corps for bowing to Bush yesterday at his final press conference, offering a "platform of self-defense and self-delusion," and then compared the Israelis to the Nazis: "I remember the rabbi who spoke at the Martin Luther King march on Washington. [Rabbi Abraham] Heschel had a cameo appearance, and he said, ‘The greatest sin of all in the Nazi era was silence.’ When you remain silent to the suffering and the incredible aggression against a people, then you are culpable."

Helen Thomas.
It’s no longer a name, it’s a punchline!
I haven’t seen any postings of Helen of Thomas (the face that sunk a thousand ships) condemning the Palies for sending missiles into civilian areas for the last few years. Did I miss it somewhere?
Just curious.
Danny Thomas was a Lebanese Christian Arab.
Is this witch an Arab?
Theft, corruption and spending on weapons instead of food or medicine is the problem....
So.....F’em.
Hey HELEN!
If the Hamas terrorists can smuggle all of those new Iranian rockets into Gaza, what is stopping them from bringing in food?
Someone should cut of Helen’s coffee supply.
Please come over to my house in Gaza and we'll talk about what's for dinner. The Israelis were kind enough to send some trucks with food and medical supplies but the Hamas took it all and want us to pay. By the way please bring some money too, Hamas needs it to cover the cost of distributing the stuff they stole. Thanks the Gazan starving children.

VERY INTERESTING.
Apparently not ALL Christian Arabs agree with Brigette Gabriel about the horrors of Islam.
Hideous living organism - inside and out
Sixty years of hanging around and they haven't even figured out how to grow their own food!
Too busy using fertilizer to please allah...
Obama has a lot of anti-Semite supporters like this gnome, but weighed against that are millions in dollars from rich liberal Jews, who certainly would be shocked if his foreign policy sided with this hideous human impostor.
Both Danny Thomas and HT were raised in Detroit.
Don’t know if there is more of a connection.
However, Danny started St. Judes Childrens Hospital,
which is a great deed.
Obama is welcome to her!!!

Oh well Helen, sh*t happens. At least Bush isn't around any more.
Helen Thomas, living proof of what happens when brothers and sisters mate.
ROFL!
Greetings, sofa.
Hullo ducky ... hope that you’re doing well ...
If the Israeli’s were destroying tunnels that were bringing food and first aid materials to Gaza, I too would condemn them.
If the Palestinians had taken the money they have used to buy rockets and bought food with it how many Palestinians would be starving.
If the Palestinians are such great people why is it the Egyptians refuse them egress?
