Helen Thomas Asks Why U.S. Is Supporting Israel
Friday, March 12, 2010
Helen Thomas asks White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs why the U.S. is supporting Israel when it is breaking international law. She is referring to the announcement that Israel approved the building of 1600 more homes for Jews in east Jerusalem during Vice President Joe Biden's current visit to the country.
East Jerusalem was captured by Israel in the 1967 Mideast war, but the international community does not recognize its annexation by Israel. Palestinians see it as their future capital.
