Video footage has emerged showing George Galloway shaking hands with Saddam Hussein's son Uday Hussein — an alleged rapist, torturer and convicted murderer. ... In the video, Galloway is seen to greet Uday, shaking his hand twice and calling him "Excellency." ... Galloway also orders watching journalists not to publish parts of their conversation. Finally, according to the paper, he taunts the U.S. and vows to stick with Uday "until the end". The video was shot for an Iraqi TV station and was smuggled out of Iraq before the regime fell... Uday was shot dead by US soldiers in 2003. He was 39.

Well, that's uncomfortable. :-) The video is from 1999. Say, isn't that during the time when the U.N. inspectors weren't allowed to conduct WMD inspections?? [he asks innocently]

As critical as it was to remove Saddam it was even more important to make sure one of his lunatic sons didn't take power.

But he didn't say anything about being anti-torture/rape/murder.

Gosh, George, you're looking awfully "chipper" these days!

This guy's a real piece of work. Here he is on "Big Brother" lapping up imaginary milk like a cat. Whacko lefty that he is, this was voluntary behaviour. "Tasks" assigned to him on the show can be refused but you risk being voted off.

Apparently his dignity has a price.

And its not very high.

Oh I reported on this yesterday. I've seen the video; it's all over the UK news.

He is the only British politician who had anything nice to say about Uday Hussein. As insane as Tony Benn is, he never chummed around with Saddam or his depraved sons.

Regards, Ivan

Concur wholeheartedly.

This is still my favorite image of the Iraq war, linked in deference to dial-up FReepers:

1999?

From this link, a column by Christopher Hitchems:

1) Between 1999 and 2003, Galloway personally solicited and received eight oil "allocations" totaling 23 million barrels, which went either to him or to a politicized "charity" of his named the Mariam Appeal.

Got to go, be back later...

Galloway's Pal Uday

His appearance on the Big Brother TV show makes him look like a clown, but here’s a reminder that British MP George Galloway is a genuinely bad man—video of Galloway hanging out and laughing with Saddam Hussein’s mass-murdering son Uday: My pal the psychopath. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)

Does anybody have a link to the actual video? I'd like to see it. I've believed for a long time that that Galloway dude is bad news.
