Longtime Washington journalist Helen Thomas abruptly retired Monday as a columnist for Hearst News Service when she was caught on video disseminating her anti-Semitic slander of Israel. Following her remarks the White House denounced Helen’s slander. Even her press corps colleagues disassociated themselves from her. Thomas apologized for her comments that were captured on video and have spread widely on the Internet. On the May 27 video, Thomas says Israelis should "get the hell out of Palestine," suggesting they go to Germany, Poland or the U.S. Hearst announced her retirement, effective immediately, shortly after White House press secretary Robert Gibbs called her remarks "offensive and reprehensible."
Nesenoff, the man who caught Helen’s slander on tape told Yahoo news on Monday that he hadn't known of Thomas's views on the Middle East and was "shocked" by her comments. When Nesenoff asked Thomas whether she was familiar with the history of the region, Thomas mentioned to Nesenoff that she is of Arab background. Amazing how most of her media colleagues align their views with Helen Thomas almost 95% was forced to take a stand against her beliefs.
Fact is that most of the bias mainstream media takes a hard left against Israel, yet they know the public is over 80% for the nation of Israel and their struggle to survive. Even Brit Hume said that sitting beside Helen for many years in the White House briefing media room said “Helen has said comments like that all the time I knew her.” How is it then that the far left media and “American Journalism” philosophy can slander Israel and Christianity when they think no one is listening, but when they get out in public, they pretend they believe something else? Truth is, every now and then, they slip up and let their true beliefs show.
My real concern is if Helen Thomas and her media colleagues can slip up and show their true beliefs about Israel, what or should I say, when will they show their true beliefs about Christianity and Christians? If Helen can with an ugly anti-Semitic tone say the Jews should be cast out of Israel and taken back to Germany, when will she and her kind say that all Christians should be taken out of the United States? The fearful thought is, Helen represents all of American mainstream media – the voice of the “so called news.” All I can say is, God help us: www.drtimmcclure.maxous.com/sp1
