in fact, an excuse-maker for totalitarianism and an apologist for nihilistic religious violence.”

In other words, a good progressive.

Exactly who are the people who elect this baboon?

Muslims.

Pure idiocy in Scottish male form.

Truer words were never spoken. Galloway is a friend of the Taliban, perfectly willing to applaud their demolition of all the Buddhas, beating of women who went out in public, shooting of girls who dare to go to school, sending of mentally handicapped suicide bombers to blow crowds of shoppers into little bloody chunks. The Taliban are heroes to Galloway. They are only enemies of civilization.

Galloway said: “I pay for the BBC and I don’t like the idea that the British media should be part of the war effort.”

That’s the problem. Galloway wants the BBC to be part of the anti-war movement and to force the public to pay for the propagation of his views. However, the last thing he wants is for the government to stop taxing citizens to pay for the BBC and its government propaganda.

I have no enemies in Afghanistan.

Correct. He is a friend of the enemy. Like Code Pink, the friend of my enemy IS my enemy.

Galloway is a traitor. I wish this was like the old days and we could put traitors like Galloway in front of a firing squad.

Thing is, we could, but refuse to do so.

What’s Britain’s version of Bellevue?

The equivalent is Kings College Hospital in London.

On April 25, 2005, Galloway was interviewed by the Iraq News Network’s Mohammad Basirul Haq Sinha on the subject of the War on Terror and the clash of cultures between the West and the Muslim world. Mr. Sinha asked Galloway: “You often call for uniting Muslim and progressive forces globally. How far is it possible under current situation?” To this, Galloway replied:

“Not only do I think it’s possible but I think it is vitally necessary and I think it is happening already. It is possible because the progressive movement around the world and the Muslims have the same enemies. Their enemies are the Zionist occupation, American occupation, British occupation of poor countries, mainly Muslim countries…So on the very grave big issues of the day – issues of war, occupation, justice, opposition to globalization – the Muslims and the progressives are on the same side.

Galloway is like a caricature of a useful idiot…..

I always thought that ‘a useful idiot’ was one who did stupid things for a cause that they weren’t bright enough to understand, out of some sort of mistaken solidarity. Not someone like Galloway, who has been paid millions of Dollars (Pounds) by the enemy for for selling out his government (as well as America, Australia etc.)
