People will never know how hard it is to get information, especially if it's locked up behind official doors where, if politicians had their way, they'd stamp 'top secret' on the color of the walls.
Helen Thomas
But when will our leaders learn - war is not the answer.
Helen Thomas
Everybody is in the pocket of the Israeli lobbies.
