Iraq oil cash funded MPs' campaigns (GALLOWAY!)

Corrupt politicians. Do they come any other way? BTW, what the hell is an MP?

I highly recommend to you the Yes, Prime Minister series. It's British Comedy divided up into 1/2 hour shows. I found it to be hysterically funny as it's all about corrupt British politicians. The funny lines in it are relevant to things going on today. I rented them from Netflix.

What do these documents say about US politicians on the take? It would be politically much harder for the US government to reveal this.

Do we need a FOIA request? The UK scandal has been growing for some time, but there's nothing on the Demos here? LOL, hard to believe!

Democrats are experts at taking bribes- they do so indirectly. Look for the name of the Iraqi-American lobbyist al-Khafagi aka al-Khafaji on the list and you should find it there receiving oil from old Saddam. That's the individual who paid off Ritter, and also Cynthia McKinney and McDermott and...?

If there is an Elgindy's on there, take notice- I haven't gone through the entire list, but I would be amused if there's an Elgindy on it.

Is this the same Mr Chalabi that is among candidates for leading Iraq's future government?

No.

APRIL 27, 2003 : (GALLOWAY IN HOT WATER)George Galloway, the anti-war Labour MP who is suing over allegations he secretly took money from Saddam Hussein, faces the prospect of a criminal prosecution for treachery. The Observer can reveal that the Director of Public Prosecutions is considering pursuing the Glasgow politician for comments during the Iraq war when he called on British troops not to fight. In an interview with Abu Dhabi TV during the Iraq conflict, Galloway said: 'The best thing British troops can do is to refuse to obey illegal orders.' Lawyers for service personnel claim his call for soldiers to disobey what he called 'illegal orders' amount to a breach of the Incitement to Disaffection Act 1934. The maximum penalty is two years in jail. Galloway's calls for British troops to disobey orders came during the TV interview in which he described Tony Blair and George Bush as 'wolves' for embarking on military action. After Galloway made the comments on Abu Dhabi TV, Hugheston-Roberts wrote to the DPP asking him to prosecute or allow a private prosecution to be brought. - "MP may be tried as traitor (Galloway))," by Antony Barnett and Martin Bright, The Observer (U.K.) , 04/27/03
