I think its disgusting, quite a fan of Galloway. I don't like some of his sucking up to religious people but he has some good stuff to say and is a quite a big mainstream media person in the UK. It's a bit like his opposite number Hitchens I really don't like his right wing politics but i'm totally behind on his views on religion.
Sure Galloway is 100% a trouble maker but that doesnt make him a terrorist, he is an elected member of parliament that has broken no serious laws in his life (refused to pay a couple of taxes he disagreed with is about it)
There's already a topic about this, but that article, just seems to re-enforce my thoughts that you can criticize any country except Israel.
With that said, it seems people think you're either with Israel or Hamas, which is of course a false dicitomy. Granted I don't think Galloway outright supported Hamas. All I've heard is that he's pro-Palestinian.
Galloway did not/does not 'support Hamas'. Hamas, whether anybody likes it or not, is the elected government of Palestine. If you're going to provide aid money to Palestine, you have to give it to the government - which is Hamas.
The Harper government deciding to bar him for assisting civilian non-combatants in getting emergency assistance is just plain batty.

I'm truly beginning to hope someone kills Harper and puts him out of our misery. I now know what it felt like to be an American 2 years ago. At least to a degree.

Galloway is a dishonest prick!
But even if Galloway is a "dishonest prick" or sympathizes with the terrorist organizations, etc.. That still doesn't mean that he shouldn't get the right to say them.
In the words of Voltaire "I dis-approve of what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
And even then, just because Galloway said some stupid and outright outrageous [such as seemingly supporting Hussein] things, doesn't mean ALL things he says is stupid.
He has a right to say whatever he likes.
Galloway is a dishonest prick.Yeah I agree,but he's a prick that has no real power to sway Foreign policy.But Reagan who supported Saddam while he was gassing the Kurds and Rumsfeld who went to Iraq as a special envoy and told Saddam that we support his gassing of Iranians along with supplying him help with our satellite intelligence is something that you won't read to much about in the U.S.,and these pricks have some real power.Check out the NSA archives here:www.gwu.edu/~nsaarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB82/ PS , I can't get this link to work, but if you hit it,it'll take you to a google page with the right link.Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam Hussein
Signature ? How ?
Absolutely appalling editing and any takes that seriously for one second of that is a complete moron, I really don't think I've heard so much shit since well the last god squad shite posted here.
Just one example I was listening to his radio show when he said
'I don't believe in the existance of a jewish state'
What no one mentioned the full statement was 'I don't believe in the existance of a jewish state, i dont believe in an christian or muslim state I believe in a state for all its citizens' . Are there any atheists or even sane people who don't agree with that.
He has never justified suiciding bombing but has said (like our last Prime Minister wife) he could understand people being so angry that they would do such a thing. Empathy is not the saying as agreeing or morally justfying an action.
Galloway does have some really shit ideas (I don't agree with his views on getting eveyone to define themselves as minority and his version of multiculturalism)) and rung him on his show to tell him but that clip like everything else on Fox is an abomination
