which means what about her being an anti-semite?
i am not discussing her body of work. i am discussing her hatred of jews.
and if someone said black people should go back to africa, you and the other people defending her would rightfully be all over that person.
i don't think it's too much to ask that a single standard be applied to all racists.
She has been a quarrelsome anti-Semite her entire life.Right. Thomas ended her career with these hurtful remarks. She was professional the rest of her career.

I dont know or care , why not start your own thread on instead of deflecting?If Thomas has to go, then why does Pat Buchanan still have a job?
Helen Thomas' view of the Israeli-Palestinian situation is out of step with mainstream American thought. She's been nearly universally condemned and rightfully so. And I'm not arguing that she's been wronged; words are weapons and sometimes, you shoot yourself. However, people should not be shocked at her comments. She is the daughter of Lebanese immigrants (no, I don't think all Lebanese think like this) and has long had very well know views on the Middle East.
Buchanan, meanwhile, has been able to successfully launder his racism through CNN, MSNBC, and as a syndicated columnist for decades despite that a career including stints in the Nixon and Reagan White House's in which he advised Nixon that Martin Luther King was "one of the most divisive men in contemporary history"; referred to the 1960 Sharpeville Massacre in South Africa as "whites mistreating a couple of blacks" (sixty-seven Blacks were killed and scores more beaten and injured); defended South African Apartheid belittling the Free South Africa Movement, and delivered that disgusting 1992 Republican National Convention speech in which he declared that the country was in a culture war and his side had to "take back our cities, take back our culture, and take back our country." Allow me to translate: Black and Brown people out of the cities, no diversity, immigrants go home.

The single standard was applied. Thomas' career is over. I don't agree with her hurtful anti-semitic remarks.
She has a right to her opinion even if it's wrong.

why defend her?
SkyDancer I have a question.
Do you think HT would have gone so far and achieved so much had her personal views had been public record as they are now?
