Helen Thomas: Jews ‘Own the White House’
Veteran journalist Helen Thomas sat down with Playboy to discuss her feelings about Israel and what got her fired last year.
The downward spiral for Thomas began last year when she was interviewed in front of the White House and made some controversial remarks that went viral. Thomas told Playboy that she doesn’t regret her words:
PLAYBOY: Take us back to the White House courtyard on May 27 when Rabbi David Nesenoff pointed his camera at you and asked for your comments on Israel.
THOMAS: He pulled that thing out like a jackknife. I mean, he started out very nice, introducing me to these two young boys who wanted to be in journalism. He said, “Got any advice? Go for it.” I didn’t know it was Jewish Heritage Month, which is why he was at the White House and also why he asked “So what do you think of Israel?” That’s when I said, “They should get the hell out of Palestine.”
PLAYBOY: Did you realize how controversial those words were as you spoke them?
THOMAS: I knew I’d hit the third rail. You cannot say anything about Israel in this country. But I’ve lived with this cause for many years. Everybody knows my feelings that the Palestinians have been shortchanged in every way. 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.
Well I’m glad that she cleared that up.
Thomas also accused Obama of pushing a conservative agenda:
THOMAS: They don’t know how intense the pressure from different special interests is on the president and congressmen. Politicians more often than not give in to that pressure. These elected officials are supposed to be doing what we want them to do. But I suppose that’s the reason we have the Tea Party. People are unhappy. The trouble is, swinging to the right is always dangerous. We end up losing so much in the rush to conservatism. But even Obama has fallen down that hole. He’s pushing a conservative agenda.
PLAYBOY: The right doesn’t see Obama that way. How is Obama conservative?
THOMAS: Look at Guantánamo. With a stroke of a pen, the day after Obama took the oath he should have said, “We’re getting the hell out of here.” Same thing with Iraq and Afghanistan. There’s no reason for us to be in a war. “They’ll all come here if we don’t go there.” That is baloney. Go halfway around the world to kill and die? Why? Now the veterans can’t get jobs. I see stories every day about soldiers being liberated from Iraq only to end up unemployed. Where is Obama? How can he continue these Bush policies that were so mean and rotten and unjust? People had this impression that Obama would be a peaceful president, but there he is, as hawkish as any of them. And Hillary Clinton is no liberal either. She put out the word to “capture or kill” for Afghanistan. What would she do that for, really? Capture or kill? What does this mean? I thought, naively perhaps, that she and Obama would bring change, that they would be different. I assumed wrongly that they would be liberal because he’s black and she’s a woman. It’s maddening.
I thought liberals were against racial profiling.
Thomas went on to talk about the Jewish control of the White House:
PLAYBOY: In America you’re talking about a relatively small community. Jews make up roughly two percent of the U.S. population. On a worldwide level, the percentage is well under one percent. Those numbers don’t exactly spell domination.
THOMAS: I get where you’re leading with this. You know damn well the power they have. It isn’t the two percent. It’s real power when you own the White House, when you own these other places in terms of your political persuasion. Of course they have power. You don’t deny that. You’re Jewish, aren’t you?
If Thomas thought that doing this interview would help her cause then she is truly delusional.
While she claims that she loves Jews she goes out of her way to criticize them and makes it seem that Jewish reporters have it out for her and just want to make her look bad.
The reality is that they don’t have to try because Thomas is single handedly doing it for them by continuing to make anti-Jewish and anti-Israel remarks.
Thomas has shown that she is nothing more than a bitter old woman who can’t face the fact that she was fired last year because of her own actions and not some Zionist conspiracy and that’s why she finds herself now working largely in obscurity.

11 Comments for Helen Thomas: Jews ‘Own the White House’
I have often wondered why anything that Helen Thomas has to say was of any interest or consequence. She has neither a knowledge of history or any relevancy in real news. I am convinced that her tenure in the White House Press corps could be explained by some undisclosed quota system that included bigoted and nasty. A review of her”writings” bears witness to the fact that she has never pretended to be a real journalist with objectivity or honesty. Having said that society can be grateful that she did not reproduce and will most likely pass on with her maidenhood undisputed.
The wicked witch with the poisened apple may pretend to be an affirmative action slut liberal called Helen thomas, but white christian princes know the truth! She’s just astonishingly hideous witch Ho who hates freedom and loves her arabic muslime terrorism antecedents. Slay the witch MERLIN and let Arthur PROCEED !
It would appear to me that “jewbastard” and “christianbastard” are far, Far, FAR, F-A-R more depraved and disgustingly racist than Helen Thomas could EVER be!
The arabs in general and muslime in particular are always taking advantage of the generosity of human beings that permit them to breed in their hard earned locations. They destroyed india with viciousness only seen by the european nazis and the north koreans. Helen thomas is typical of the arab filth that parasited off the blood of american patriots that give liberty and high office to women. In her native lebanon the hideous gorgon would only reach the top by covering herself in hizbalah suicide bombs and the blood of the innocents she could kill. In Shanghai we keep the slime down and thats why we have peace and quiet – and we’ll nuke saudi or teheran if they screw us !
NOW,,,,NOW,,,Children,,,can’t we all just get along???
We are all ‘supposed’ to be protected by the 1st Ammendment,,,unless,of course,you offend a ‘protected’ minority ,,that has Congress on their ‘speed-dial’,,then pressure is brought to bear,,,& unless you have Bill Gates’ money,,you are out. Case in point,,Helen Thomas.
P.S. I am NOT one of the above ‘bastards’,,my parents were married 50 yrs.
You want to call yourselves ‘bastards’,,go ahead,,I’ve some other choice names for you that’ll make a Longshoreman ‘blush’,,,so behave,,,please!
P.P.S. If Hillary were POTUS,,it might be true about who has influence at the WH. Since it is B HUSSEIN O instead,,,I give ya 3 guesses who is behind the PRO-Left scenes & the 1st 2 do not count.
I was thinking to use jiggerbastard or blackb. etc., I settled on colored because it was the 50s era when black civil rights took off. The avg black has been sandbagged by the leftist and communist whitey who is using black meat for leftist power. The politics of alienation have created power blocks. Helen Thomas is the result of the Islamic bigotry and viciousness that enslaved and butchered an estimated 230 million africans. The entire North Africa, Egypt,Sudan,Libya etc. were stolen by arab demons from the BLACKS. Black people as well as asians are bought and sold in Arab countries to this day. If we do revolt and justly murder our opressors – I would understand the victims of Helen Thomas types lynching the representative of indescribable genetic EVIL. Okumah Beho Tulaskih ofundipi zilif. Ohanda degjeh rbetugo. (When shall the black warrior arise avenging the hideous musselman – the foul air spirit of the swamp sand.- old african lament)
The Jews don’t “own” the White House or the media but they do have undue and disproportionate influence over them. They are quick to label those that critizize them as anti-semetic and/or racist etc. The truth of the matter is, THEY are the ones who are racist and extremely bigoted against the “Goyim” (non-jews). One only need to observe and listen closely to their daily rantings or their actions to realize that they are only concerned about their own selfish interests and nothing else (well, okay, they like our women) but otherwise, they hate us.
There must be a good reason why they have been persecuted for millenia.
I am NOT an ARAB, IRANIAN, MUSLIM, SYRIAN, LEBANONI, PAKISTAN, FARRIKAN, NAZI, ANTI-SEMITE. I am merely an individual who is jealous of jews and has too much time on my hands. I would get a job if the jews didn’t own all the companies and I wouldn’t be addicted to DRUGS if THE DIRTY JEWS didn’t control South America and Afghanistan and heroin and Cocaine. Salam Alakum.
There’s an irony going on with Enrique Malave. “Malave” is a Jewish name and his rant suggests he knows little about his Latino background.
If we own the white house than why the fuck do we haqve fairykoons buttboy acting as president and the wicked witch thomas still possesing her hideously ugly head.
