...anti-Jewish racist, and as such, her name must not be honored by anyone or any institution that promotes liberal democracy!!

Let us compare: Helen Thomas like other distinguished people /mainly jews/ is not antisemitic. Many would welcome her visit in their homes. Nobody would welcome idi.. like Alan Dersowitch. No, the only sad think is it took her so long to see truth picture and speek....Critics of Israels policy are friends of Israel and Israels only hope for future. peter czech

I remember the first time i got drunk too; hang in there and stay away from the keyboard.

The largest Arab population in the U.S. is in Dearborn and the Dearborn Heights area outside of Detroit. So it isn't surprising she made her speech there. Certainly anybody who talks like the Klan and Neo-Nazi's shouldn't have award in her name. I'm sure she is paid well to follow the speaking circuit of hate. Hey at $25,000 dollars a pop, who is she to talk about Jewish control of the media or congress. It has always struck me as ironic that people like Helen Thomas or Carter whine that legal contributions to political candidates means they bought and paid for. Yet these same people fail to mention the money they have taken from the anti-Israel crowd. For instance Carter has taken in excess of $20 million dollars, yet he whines about a $5,000 dollar contribution to a political candidate. How much money does Helen Thomas make per speech? Of course with her, antisemitism seems to be her religion. Fortunately, most see her for the hatemonger she is, and it's only fitting she die in disgrace among civilized society. Only a hero among the Muslims, the biggest hatemongers and least tolerant people on earth. So she fits right in.

This is normal, always great people face such reactions from stupied people, she is very brave and wise to tell the required truth at the right time and place.

she does not need award , she needs to rest, just keep silent : -)

You forgot to add: and bloody ugly too.

Takes a year off my life every time I stumble across that mug. Spare us all, YNET, and don't tack that Medusa's pic up again.

Do not use the name of G-d too freely. Criticise a person's action or words but do make personal attacks of a derogatory and immature nature. It reflects poorly on the arguments you put forth - empty and bankrupt of ideas!

Thomas is a pariah. Her press credentials have been yanked, she was unceremoniously dumped by Hearst, she was removed from the roster of the member journalists of the National Press Club and she left Washington D.C. in complete disgrace. She is shunned by everyone, all of her serious speaking engagements have been cancelled (and with them, those highly lucrative honoraria), and now her alma mater has deep-sixed an award named for her. And still she continues to spout racist drivel and make baseless accusations about Jews and Zionism. She truly is an embarrassment and a disgrace. She is no lady. A lady always knows when it is time to leave. What a disgusting creature she is! Does she not realize that her incredible demise and slide into complete oblivion was self-inflicted?

and Wayne State did the right thing. And as for Helen Thomas, they say beauty is skin deep - MAN! how can someone be so ugly inside AND out!

Helen Thomas deserves the Ben Franklin Award; that is, "Miss Kite." (miskeit)

She looks like a witch and talks like one.

runs to the bone. And oh, is she ugly.

we "have the face we deserve". It must be even more so at 90.

Thank you Wayne State University for your brave action.

Hatred and racism distort the mind, soul and body too. This hateful b..ch is a perfect example. She can easily join the ranks of Osama Bin-Laden, Ahmedinejad, Nasrallah and their followers. THAT would be a tough Ugliness Contest for Miss Racism.

Please, you are all much too harsh. A close look at her face and it becomes apparent that her disposition might be mitigated by one good bowel movement.

You posters who say she is ugly should be ashamed. Your 90 year old parents arent beautiful any more either.

This wretched womans only legacy is hate and mendacity . This is what she will take with her to the grave . Antisemites come and go like the weeds that grow and then die in the fields unfortunately to be replaced with a fresh crop to defile and stifle all that is good . Thomas will soon be forgotten and her grave untended. On the other hand the legacy of our people is 3000 years and counting and a disproportionate contribution in every facet of human endeavour Medicine ,science, the Arts , As for Thomas only the cold silence of the grave beckons.

Bad enough we have to deal with one sour, ugly old woman, but we don't need a Canadian version cropping up as well. The bar must drop no further.

Naturally Wayne State is within its rights to cancel the Helen Thomas Award, a move which is a craven cave-in to the Zionist lobby. She is punished for telling the plain truth. The Zionists/Jews must leave the Holy Land, which is rightfully Muslim and Christian today. As for the Zionists' huge control, I take some issue with that, simply because there are not enough Zionists to exercise such control. They would, however, if they possibly could.

when you reach 90 yrs old and Raised on hate and anti-semitism. Wayne State is a diverse campus, however the stain of helen will be forgotten in time.

certainly my elderly relatives could never win a beauty contest. But the tenderness in their eyes and the warmth in their smiles mirrors another kind of beauty. However, if ever i've seen a scowling, snarling, nasty looking pus, this is it. While I was reading this article my dog came by (a boxer no less), took one look at the moniter and ran out of the room. Trust me, my dog has never slandered anybody.

Helen Thomas, Edward Said and other Arab American elite intellectuals do not care about the plight of the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza. They care about old nationalistic cliche' that means that co existenxe between Jews and Arabs is out. Helen Thomas told Jews to "get out of Palestine" specifically ignoring the centuries, 2000 years, of Jews living in the Holy Land. She also ignores the history of this Holy Land that never was the home of a non existant Palestinian nation. Thus her comments a purely anti Semitic, Nazi style. It took too long to get rid of this racist and open the door to peace through co existence.

Very funny

And like the sycophants in the MSM and in the US congress they all cower before the might of zionist money interests. At least Helen Thomas has a backbone. She speaks the truth and can't be frightened or bought off.

Loved your comment! Love the fact that you have a boxer, too. There are more -- er, shall we say "facially attractive" -- dogs, but few breeds have a sweeter or gentler disposition than the boxer.
