Oh, I am sure that Bobby Fisk will still love him.Speaking about traitorous left-wing scum, I wonder how much of Saddam's cash shows up in Fisk's accounts?

Here's another article on Galloway. Not too distant from the shrill Pelosi-types, apparently.
Thanks for the link...did you catch the "correction" at the bottom of the piece? These Brits and their dry sense of humor! Gotta love 'em!

What a fine humanitarian. I suppose the pet slogan "No War For Oil" really means "No War, For Oil." I hope a lot of sanctimonious crooks get outed all over the world.

Yeah, but will he lose the election in Glasgow? Those folks have tolerated everything up to this....I'm not sure treason is enough to get them to vote for someone else. More likely that the local Labour Party wouldn't select (nominate) him to run as their candidate. They don't have primary elections, so the party establishment has a large measure of control over who runs on the party's ballot line.
Galloway could still run as an independent or minor party candidate (asssuming he's not in jail), but his is presumably a safe Labour seat.

"Galloway is done."
Almost too good to be true, ain't it?
I hope it gets even more interesting. ;^)

The dude is done. Is he? I wonder. Maybe things are different in Great Britain, but if this guy was a liberal Democrat the press would spin it away until everyone believed all the money went straight to the RNC bank account.

From your Guardian link is this Galloway comment regarding Bush and Blair...
"As for being a traitor, the people who have betrayed this country are those who have sold it to a foreign power and who have been the miserable surrogates of a bigger power for reasons very few people in Britain can understand," he said.
I don't know what the anti-Blair and anti-Bush elements understand now, but it sure is becoming easier to understand them.

I am most interested in finding out which Americans were in the pay of Saddam.
Jim McDermott would be my first guess.
To: MadIvan
What timely justice for Galloway. Scotty Ritter must be sweating bullets about now. Well now we know why they were so rabbid about Iraqi Freedom.

Fascists feel some need to pretend that they are operating according to the rule of law. That's why they're so anal about documentation -- they need it to prop up that illusion.

This sounds like a soviet style beaurocracy, in which nothing happened without massive documentation. This could be very interesting indeed.
To: The Hon. Galahad Threepwood
I really wonder if there's anything this interesting in the "United States" box.

From the article:
"Two more box files were labelled "Britain". Others were labelled "United States", "Security Council" and "France". Each appeared to contain all the appropriate documents that had crossed the desk of an Iraqi foreign minister."
Yep, it could get interesting.
To: Ursus arctos horribilis
Interesting that vicious regimes require meticulous records, probably with blackmail in mind. Plus, everyone would document everything they observed, did, said, or thought as a form of CYA...

And another excerpt from the article:
"Like every government building in Baghdad, the foreign ministry has been pillaged to destruction. It also suffered an American cruise missile strike in the second week of the war.
Hmmmmm..... I wonder why.
To: Illbay
he certainly seemed to be a cool customer when confronted with it. Like Scott Peterson.
Galloways was apparently a cool customer for years sitting in parliament pretending to be a decent British citizen. He probably lied through his teeth daily. Ans what did he do with the money? Hiding millions takes plenty of doublethink..he's an expert at it.

Four blue folders, each stamped with the Iraqi eagle, lay inside. Opening the first, I happened upon George Galloway's letter nominating Fawaz Zureikat as his representative in Baghdad. Another folder contained a letter from Sir Edward Heath thanking the Iraqi representative in London for attending a luncheon in Salisbury. Hmmm, Edward Heath. What position has he taken on the Iraq war?
To: steve-b
I suspect it's more fundumental that that. A symptom of that particular flavor of insanity...
