    Why? Its not like its HIM who is running around and accusing OTHERs of making money from Saddam -- it is him who is being accused and if all the "evidence" they have was obtained from Abu Greid, X-Ray etc, then no decent court should accept it -- this is not even getting evidence under duress, its so much worse than it that I have not got a good word.

    I mean, c'mon, a politician who hasn't taken a few brown envelopes stuffed with fivers, or greased a few palms along the way ?

    No wonder George is so livid....looks like opportunities have passed him by and now he is upset....

    George needs to remember one thing so..so does the rest of the UK.

    Whilst it may be fashionable to prod and poke the yanks at the moment, we should be wary that in 3-5 years times when the next can of Whoop-Ass is opened, we are not the recipients.

    I'm just saying that if we continue to pi55 of the colonials, we shouldn't be suprised if they bite us back in turn.

    Considering the UK were the masters of worldwide Diplomacy during the last 500 years...we need to continue the trend of being "Wormtongue" and letting the King think he has all the power...if the King happens to be the Yanks...then so be it

    Right to Reply ...George Galloway

    Of Tariq Aziz and Ramadan's evidence, he said:

    "The evidence is statements made by the people on trial for genocide and living now in the dungeons of the American occupation in Iraq.

    "Knowing what we do about what happens to people in American dungeons in Iraq, you don't have to be a genius to work out why, after May, they would get somebody to say what they want them to say.

    "Nobody has ever given me one thin dime from an oil deal or any other deal.

    Too right, that scouse singer/songwriter should have gone down for 20 at least.

    Senators seems to have the kind of "evidence" that no decent court would accept - Galloway has certainly got balls to play his cards straight.

    started a topic Galloway challenges US Senators

    Galloway challenges US Senators

    Galloway challenges US Senators
    It is a great deal easier for US senators to launch allegations against someone in the media, than it is for the recipient to defend those allegations in the media. Mud sticks 'n all that.

    Galloway typically has challenged them to charge him with perjury. Those Senators must now put up or shut-up.

    If they put up, I suspect it would be a move they would learn to regret for a long, long time.
