Helen Thomas to Playboy - White House in Pockets of the Israeli Lobbies

Helen Thomas, former dean of the White House Press Corps, reportedly told Playboy in an interview for their April issue that Jews have power over the White House and Congress, who are in the pockets of the Israeli lobbies.

Thomas left her post at the White House after she publicly made anti-Israel comments last May, telling the Jews they should "get the hell out of Palestine."

The former reporter told Playboy that the Israeli lobbies "are funded by wealthy supporters, including those from Hollywood. Same thing with the financial markets. There's total control."

When asked about her comments that ultimately cost her her job, Thomas told Playboy that "everybody knows my feelings about the Palestinians," adding "sure, the Israelis have a right to exist—but where they were born, not to come and take someone else's home. I've had it up to here with the violations against the Palestinians. Why shouldn't I say it? I knew exactly what I was doing—I was going for broke. I had reached the point of no return. You finally get fed up."

Thomas also clarified that when she said the Jews should go back to Poland,Germany and America, that she was not referring to the concentration camps, but rather that "they should stay where they are because they're not being persecuted—not since World War II, not since 1945."

However, when asked about the Holocaust, Thomas told the magazine that "there's nothing wrong with remembering it [the Holocaust], but why do we have to constantly remember? We're not at fault."

She then launched into criticism of Israel and its alleged oppression of the Palestinians, accusing the Jews of lacking introspection.

"Do the Jews ever look at themselves?" asked Thomas, "why are they always right? Because they have been oppressed throughout history, I know. And they have this persecution. That's true, but they shouldn't use that to dominate."

The former reporter told Playboy that she is not anti-Jewish, just anti -- Israel, saying she thinks Jews are wonderful people. :I'm not anti-Jewish," clarified Thomas, "I'm anti-Zionist. I am anti Israel taking what doesn't belong to it. If you have a home and you're kicked out of that home, you don't come and kick someone else out."

haha it's really funny to hear this from a Lebanese woman living on native american land...

here's a newsflash: jews are genetically linked to each other and to levantine arabs as evidenced by DNA evidence that gives testament to these ties

next most of Israel's jews originated from the 850,000 Jews who were expelled from Arab countries who attacked them because these countries lost a war to Israel. So the truth is that the arab countries and israel are very much even.

@DmitriyXY Which war are you talking about happened where Jews were expelled to Europe exactly?

btw the die hard muslim supporters of Iran don't have 1.5 million Arab citizens(of the christian, muslim, and druze faiths) who occupy positions in government and who sit on the supreme court of the land

also unlike in Israel, Bahais in iran are a persecuted minority, while in Israel they have THE BAHAI WORLD CENTER....
