"As you know, Mr Aziz and his family are Roman Catholics. Christmas is for them just as it is for us. It was cold, it was snowing. A little girl sang and some children performed a nativity play."
This isn't going to go over big in Scotland either.
Your average Scot may be puzzled whether or not to hate Saddam and his Arabs, but he knows perfectly well how he feels about Catholics.

There isn't a gallow high enough for a lawmaker in the pay of another country.

Aziz is not Roman Catholic, he is Chaldean Catholic.
The Chaldeans are in union with Rome, but they are not Roman Catholics. They have their own, separate hierarchy of bishops.
They reunited with Rome in the 16th century, I believe.
Galloway says: "As you know, Mr Aziz and his family are Roman Catholics. Christmas is for them just as it is for us. It was cold, it was snowing. A little girl sang and some children performed a nativity play. The archbishop shook everyone's hand ..."
Galloway must have been paying close attention to the Patriarch (not the archbishop).
Anyone have the weather conditions in Bagdhad on Dec 26 1999?
To: Shermy
OK
Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf, or "comical Ali"... then later He said: "As you know, Mr Aziz and his family are Roman Catholics. Christmas is for them just as it is for us. It was cold, it was snowing. A little girl sang and... alright traitor, I'm trying not to make a joke here, but what in the WORLD is Baghdad Bob doing there? He's a Shiite. He betrayed his people and they hate him, but still, exactly what relevance could Bob find in this "celebration" of these true believers the birth of Jesus Christ? Gimme a break, this guy is flailing in the quicksand.

Mr Galloway said no gifts were exchanged...
Just cash.

and a little celebratory ear-ectomies and an electrocution of some poor Iraqis to liven the festivities. and a little back-wall execution one night. that's all. just the usual Baathist rituals on Christmas Eve or any other night for the sadistic regime that ruled Iraq.
To: Cicero
Scotland has a fairly high percentage of Catholics. Mary, Queen of Scots was executed by her cousin, Elizabeth I, because she would not renounce her Catholicism.

On or off Galloway ping list.and miss the story of the century, continually unfolding, ever expanding and like a spider's web, ensnaring all the maggot producing flies?
Never, not for a minute, should you consider taking me off this ping list. I'm looking forward to the day when we can rename these threads the Galloway/DNC ping list.
I may not always be able to comment or participate, but that is never an indication of indifference to this topic.

These people are truly mentally ill if they call themselves Christians.

I thought the same thing.
Maybe in this mentally ill Christmas spirit, they brought some of those bid shredders and let Galloway push the start button as they shredded a few innocent Iraqis for entertainment between dinner and dessert.
