In a press release entitled ADL Calls On J-Schools And Organizations To Rescind Honors To Helen Thomas After Latest Anti-Semitic Outburst , ADL President Abe Foxman demanded, “It is time for those schools and professional organizations that have honored Thomas in one form or another over the years to consider rescinding those honors in light of her pervasively anti-Semitic rhetoric. Professional associations and academic institutions should not want to be associated with an anti-Semite.”
Yet amazingly, in their indictment of Thomas, the ADL was upset that Thomas “went on to claim that she was made to pay a price for her remarks because of the power of the Jewish lobby in the United States.”
Let me get this straight, the Anti-Defamation League is demanding that Thomas be punished because she says that she was punished by Jewish groups?
The first to cave was Wayne State, which rescinded, with the ADL’s approval, their "Helen Thomas Spirit of Diversity in Media Award."
Isn’t diversity such a strength?
Like Rick Sanchez (A White Hispanic), Thomas, an Arab (who looks white, if not Jewish) views herself as a victim group that is more victimized than Jews.
