George Galloway's family ties

British Labour MP George Galloway, charged with taking bribes from Saddam, happens to be married to Yassir Arafat's niece, Aminah Abu-Zayyhad.

UPDATE: Since Galloway is in the news right now, people might get a chuckle over his frantic attempts last month to avoid a very determined Kurdish refugee. And Galloway had already been accused of treason when he called on British troops to "refuse to obey illegal orders."

Saddam; Arafat; UBL; Iran and its mullahs; Syria and Assad; and now their not-so-secret supporters. They are all part of the same evil. Their desire “Death to America” and, of course, Israel. We won’t be safe as long as any of them remain in power. I hope we have the fortitude to face this enemy and deal with them accordingly.

Man, the guy is slimy. Notice how calls on British troops to not obey "illegal orders". Then he says that the war is "illegal".

Of course, everyone in the civilized world, and this probably even includes Russia, would agree that soldiers do their duty in disobeying illegal orders. Nothing wrong with that. It's when he pairs it with his stance that the war itself is illegal that then he implies that soldiers should not fight at all in the war.

Later on, after the war is over, he can just go back and say, "I just called on British troops to not obey illegal orders." And then an interviewer will press him and say, "But you said that the war itself is illegal, so therefore were you not implying..." and then he can turn on the Blowhard Machine and churn out doubletalk and rhetoric like Niagara Falls.

The man makes me sick.

Even the BBC doesn't like him, check out last night's Newsnight on http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsnight, "Latest programme" link.

He would so be hanging already in the 17th Century... Treason is so under used, and the worst is the compassion that judges have for these assholes...

His talk should have been enough to lock him away for a couple of years... Freedom of Speech IS NOT Speech without consequence...

GALLOWAY TO THE GALLOW... Even the leftist communists can manage that, only 1 word with more then 1 sylabol. (sp)

Scum, Scum Scum! I still think he's French. Check his family tree, provided it has more than one branch.
