Some of the Thomas backlash is unnecessarily critical of her words, which were a flippant off-the-cuff reply to a stupid question (I'm sure she wouldn't wish such a tragedy on the Poles and Germans, although, as all moral and decent people know, the Jews are eventually going to have to lose all political control in the Middle East), and which would have gone completely unnoticed had the Jews not needed to change the subject and cast aspersions on the motives of those who dared criticize their slaughtering of humanitarian aid workers:- Farewell Helen Thomas

09/06/2010 Hezbollah on Wednesday saluted veteran US reporter Helen Thomas's "courage" for her comments against Israel, which forced her to retire.
"Respected American journalist Helen Thomas's answer shows ... a courageous, bold, honest and free opinion which expresses what people across the globe believe: that Israel is a racist state of murderers and thugs," Hezbollah MP Hussein Moussawi said in a statement.
Thomas, who is of Lebanese descent, retired on Monday after coming under fire for her remarks against Israel.
Asked at a May 27 "Jewish Heritage Celebration" whether she had any comments on Israel, Thomas replied: "Tell them to get the hell out of Palestine.
"Remember these people are occupied and it's their land, not German and not Poland," 89-year-old Thomas said. "They can go home, Poland, Germany, and America and everywhere else."
