A controversial member of the British Parliament told an Arab TV audience that those who invaded Iraq will burn in hell.
he appearance on Egyptian Abu-Dhabi TV Saturday was par for the course for maverick George Galloway, who has been involved in two libel cases with newspapers over charges he took money from the Saddam Hussein regime.
Galloway's videotaped statement was posted on the Internet by the Middle East Media Research Institute TV Monitor Project, or MEMRI TV.
Referring to the insurgents fighting coalition soldiers as "Iraqi people" who are "resisting," Galloway decried recent crackdowns in Falluja, Ramadhi and Mosul, and claimed U.S. and British troops were "occupying every part of [Iraq] and regularly destroying cities."
He lamented the fact that an Arab conference in Egypt included only the "puppet regime" of Iraqi Prim Minister Ayad Allawi and no one from the "Iraqi resistance." News reports have revealed many of the insurgents fighting in Iraq are not actually Iraqis but Arabs from other Middle Eastern countries.
Galloway then turned to the eternal destinations of the coalition:
"The people who invaded and destroyed Iraq and have murdered more than a million Iraqi people by sanctions and war will burn in hell in the hell-fires, and their name in history will be branded as killers and war criminals for all time.
"Fallujah is a Guernica, Falluajah is a Stalingrad, and Iraq is in flames as a result of the actions of these criminals. Not the resistance, not anybody else but these criminals who invaded and fell like wolves upon the people of Iraq. And by the way, those Arab regimes which helped them to do it will burn in the same hell-fires."
Note to MP Galloway: You should not drink the bong water...
This is the same guy who was on Saddam's payroll.
Of course he's p!$$ed now that a significant source of his income has been cut off.
He's just annoyed becuase the money from Saddam has dried up. (There was a "Galloway" on the Oil options list)
Bought and paid for with Saddam's oil money.
George needs to take up residence in Fallujah.
Is this guy for real?
Nah, just a nutcase.
"maverick" has a somewhat honorable connotation and should not be used in the same sentence as "George Galloway".
Why hasn't Blair had this scum arrested.
Yep. He joins a long list of buffoons who like to listen to themselves whine like a baby. We'll give them some good old Wisconsin cheese to go with their whine.

Sore loser?
A Traitor for sure. He and his cohorts in Crime, Kofi, Jock Strap Chirac and the rest of the Gangsters that accepted money from Saddam. They are the reasons the Sanctikons did not work. They should be arrested and brought to Trial.

He's exactly right. It's just that in his example, he's rooting for the Germans. ;)
No 72 virgins for you, MP.
How about getting your just desert: 72 tatooed Arkansas lesbians!
Britain's own Teddy Kennedy. How special.
