Given Israel's recent attack of the flotilla of aid ships, I can believe she, as well as most of the world was disgusted & angered with Israel and let the comment slip. I know a lot of us have strong views on this issue, for & against.

The only aid they were providing was in the form of military reinforcememts to Hamas.
Israel has every right to defend itself, no matter what Obama tries to do to draw attention away from the oil slick.
Don't be surprised if the White House was involved in some way.

So much vitriol and spite being shown here towards Helen Thomas.
It's also a little off to call her "biased" in her view of the Israelis, especially when Israel has your own government, and many previous administrations by the nuts and pays / blackmails them to do what Israel wants, not what is good for America.

She was also correct on one aspect, and maybe the immigrant Jewish converts should go home. It was, after all, they who stole the land that was already occupied.

Yes but if that is to be the new rule, then how would you feel if 100 million yanks who live in America today gave their land back to native Americans then came back home and settled in your neighborhood mate. After all, they stole the land that was already occupied. Maybe we could all go down to the local pub and settle our differences with drinking games.
Stay thirsty my friend.
