Upholding the integrity of his Office at all times.
Ha ha ha...hilarious. After all his nose-thumbing to the congress. (remember he wrote a book about his trip). What an ego-maniac.
The debate where Hitchens flattened him is a classic.
Upholding the integrity of his Office at all times.
Great Britain Met 'to investigate Galloway for taking cash from Saddam'
Hate cleric allowed into UK(championed by Galloway, of course)
But, he strenuously denies it! A one month suspension is what he received. He must have Sandy Burglars lawyer, he should be doing some major time in the poky.
Galloway deserves to hang.
I have no respect for any man in a public position acting like a leashed dog on British TV.
Hopefully, Norm Coleman will issue a press release and impersonate Rush Limbaugh and say.."See, I told you so!"
Gallow-way suspended. Now if only he’d been suspended by a Mr. Lynch...
Not really.
One month suspension is no punishment at all. It might even further endear him to his supporters.
Further, the case against him is extremely weak. He says he was the unknowing recipient of dirty money. Even if he's lying how guilty is he? Using the same standards how many U.S. politicians who've accepted money from American companies who took the same dirty money are also guilty? Has anyone even bothered to try to trace the connections? We know that several American oil companies took dirty money from Saddam. They must have made political contributions - all major companies do. So who were the recipients?
True, Galloway took money - indirectly - from foreign source but that seems to be legal in England and anyway how important is that? These days, in the global economy, money has no nationality.
Well lookey here at who was taking bribes?? Wonder how many in our congress had envolopes from Saddamn.
Pray for W and Our Troops
Who here in the US was getting kickbacks too...
"In the United Nations oil-for-food programme in Iraq?"
Eid Mubarak to you, Bro Mohammed and all the strugglers of the democratic Saudi opposition.So, who is Dr Saad Al-Fagih ?I had a visit today from the PR people - John and Patricia. It seems they have some ambitious plans for the future. I just wanted you to know that their plans are theirs alone.
I should prefer to deal directly with you; either on my own proposals or any others you have.
I hope you all enjoy the feast; and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Allah Makh.

* US Embassy Bombings in E Africa : 1996 : () The [bin Laden sat phone] telephone records have come to light following the trial last year of four Al-Qaeda terrorists who planned and carried out the bombing of the two American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. According to trial documents, the telephone [the one bin Laden used] was bought in 1996 with the help of Dr Saad al Fagih, 45, a bearded surgeon who heads the London-based Movement for Islamic Reform in Arabia. [MIRA] This fundamentalist Muslim group is dedicated to the overthrow of the Saudi Arabian government but is not part of Al-Qaeda. ------"Bin Laden called UK 260 times," by Nick Fielding and Dipesh Gadhery, The Sunday Times (U.K.), 03/24/2002
... Two of the men contacted by Bin Laden in Britain — Khaled al Fawwaz and Ibrahim Eidarous — are now in prison awaiting extradition to the United States for their part in the embassy bombings, which killed 224 and injured thousands.
However, another senior terrorist suspect, Mustafa Nazar, is still on the loose. He spent up to two years in Dollis Hill, north London, recruiting for Al-Qaeda. A key figure in Bin Laden’s terror training camps, he left Britain in 1998 and was last seen in Afghanistan fighting alongside the Taliban.
The telephone records have come to light following the trial last year of four Al-Qaeda terrorists who planned and carried out the bombing of the two American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
According to trial documents, the telephone [the one bin Laden used] was bought in 1996 with the help of Dr Saad al Fagih, 45, a bearded surgeon who heads the London-based Movement for Islamic Reform in Arabia. This fundamentalist Muslim group is dedicated to the overthrow of the Saudi Arabian government but is not part of Al-Qaeda.
Al Fagih, who has been regularly used by the BBC as an expert on Bin Laden, has in the past explained that Muslim scholars said the killing of civilians, including children, was allowed by the Koran as “collateral damage” in the holy war.
It was al Fagih’s credit card which was used to help to buy the £10,500 Compact-M satellite phone in the United States and it was shipped to his home in north London, according to American court documents. His credit card was also used to buy more than 3,000 minutes of pre-paid airtime.
Last week al Fagih, who has not been arrested or charged in connection with any of these actions, said: “I am willing to speak to the authorities if they ask me about this or any other issue, but not to the press.” ...------ "Bin Laden called UK 260 times," by Nick Fielding and Dipesh Gadhery, The Sunday Times (U.K.), 03/24/2002
