THE TIMES: Galloway denies receiving £370,000 Iraq oil payments
The Times (UK) ^ | 4/22/03 | Melissa Kite
...here's links to the original Telegraph story and editorial posted by MadIvan, the documents on the Telegraph site, and the Sun and Independent takes posted by Pokey78.

Here is the account of how the reporter came upon these documents:

http://news.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2003/04/22/ngall122.xml&sSheet=/news/2003/04/22/ixnewstop.html

I'm afraid that the establishment media will simply stonewall this to death, despite the direct revelation having been made by one of its most loyal members, the Daily Telegraph. The antiwar group ANSWER has been directly financed by the Iraqi regime since its formation, in the form of "legal fees" paid by Baghdad to ANSWER's leading spokesman and organizer, former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark.

It doesn't get much worse than this. George Galloway is Britain's most active and visible peace campaigner.

Saddam tells Galloway: ’We’ll fight to the death’
The Scotsman ^ | August 11, 2002

[Cicero]

As the saying goes, his name is mud.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Bump - for treachery, greed, and corruption unveiled for all the world to see.

[dighton]

Bookmarked. Thanks for all the work you put into it.

Here's another David Blair piece, from May of last year: Saddam's friend Galloway keeps odd company in Baghdad.

[Shermy]

Hear, hear backhoe!

[MadIvan]

David Blair is also the author of the excelllent book on Zimbabwe, Degrees in Violence. I trust him far more than I trust George Galloway.

Regards, Ivan

[backhoe]

Thanks for looking- he's very clintonian, isn't he?

[backhoe]

I really appreciate that link- it did not show up in several searches I ran!

[backhoe]

Appreciate it- than you.

[backhoe]

Ivan, thanks for that link- I have heard of the book, but did not make the connection to the writer's name...

[hellinahandcart]

you go, backhoe! :D

[Shermy]

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/030422/170/3v7zh.html

[Shermy]

Pic at #11 for use.

Is he saying "Peace", or auctioning himself off?

[backhoe]

Appreciate the graphics; thanks for looking.

I think it's time to bring back the tumbrels & guillotine for traitors.

[M Kehoe]

Bttt.

5.56mm

[LPStar]

What's your perception of the British response to this scandal?

[GailA]

Great minds think a like I'd started putting together a list of FR posted articles on UN Food for Oil program.

THIS TOP ONE IS THE LATEST REPORT OUT OF THE USELESS NATIONS ON THE OIL FOR FOOD PROGRAM

UN OIL FOR FOOD PROGRAM REPORT (what UN is really raking in) 2/22-28/03

UN deal leaves Iraq Kurds at Baghdad's mercy

Oil, Food and a Whole Lot of Questions

The Oil-for-U.N.-Jobs Program

Kofi Annandersen: Enron-style accounting at the U.N. Oil-for-Food Program

William Safire: Follow the money

Bum's Rush for Butcher's Big, Bad Debts

Don’t expect UN to clean up Iraq (a sane German alert!)

U.N. crambles to Reclaim Role Amid Debate on Rebuilding Iraq

NO OIL FOR BLOOD Total says will not be shut out of Iraq contracts Cleaning the U.N. trough

[GailA]

Missed this one Cleaning the U.N. trough

[MadIvan]

My perception is that Galloway is in big trouble - on Sky News they showed a speech he gave to Saddam Hussein, saluting his bravery. Oops.

Also they showed David Blair and how he found the documents. The Telegraph's method was unimpeachable - Galloway is so done it is unbelievable.

Regards, Ivan

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Great work, Backhoe!

I would bet there is a counterpart to this guy in the US, Ramsey Clark perhaps!

[Fracas]

What's the 'buzz' about this? I've read all the major papers, including the editorials, but it's difficult to get a read on what the 'man on the street' thinks.

If Galloway had a decent excuse or could declare his innocence, IMO he would not be trying to shoot the messenger, David Blair.

[Fracas]

Bump.

Thanks for all the effort on this important topic.

[Only1choice____Freedom]

So we see the unraveling begin.

Rat bastards selling out their country, Iraqi children, their word.

He should be hanged as an example of what happens to traitors if proven guilty.

Time to collect evidence for a trial. The only network to cover it would be FOX.

[dancusa]

Galloway drives the latest sports car and vacations in
Portugal.Hmm I wonder how he can afford this on backbenchers pay.The man of the people of the labour party.

[Grampa Dave]

Great job of indexing and referencing the money trail of this POS!

Maybe one of these days we will have data for you to index something similiar for the Da$$hole and other Rat senators and congressits!

[backhoe]

Great idea! I'll add your links to the next mass email/dark underbelly update. Please advise if you find more, and I'll send them out, too.

[Grampa Dave]

This is this POS's minimum bid of 20% of each barrel of oil sold during a specified time period for his help to Soddomite.

Each Finger equals 10%!

[backhoe]

Thanks for the bump!

[backhoe]

Appreciate the comments; thanks for the pings-

I really think this is an excellent opportunity to investigate and expose the utter corruption, veneality, and moral bankruptcy of people like Galloway.

I am waiting with bated breath to learn what more will be revealed.

This is a hot story!

[Grampa Dave]

Great Job, Gail!

[backhoe]

Thanks for looking... God willing, this will be too big a story for the Jackal Pack Press to mention once and then claim "nobody's interested..."

[Grampa Dave]

Ramsey Clark would be a good counter part.

Ramsey Clark set up the phoney interview between Blather and the Soddomite, Clone.

[backhoe]

Galloway drives the latest sports car and vacations in Portugal

Yes, it always comes down to money & bribes, doesn't it?

I'd bear him a little grudging respect if he had taken his positions based on ideals alone, but this is insufferable.

[backhoe]

Dave, I suspect that if this is fully investigated, there will be some American names that turn up.

[GailA]

I did a seperate Master list Thread for the UN Oil for Food program which should make things easiser UN OIL FOR FOOD MASTER LIST

I linked this thread to it.

[Grampa Dave]

If not, they will get a private call. Then they will resign to spend more time with their families.

Thanks to you and Gail for indexing these critical threads/events. There will be so much news of this type flowing out of Iraq, that it will be impossible to keep up without our great indexers.

[backhoe]

I just got it & am sending it off now- too good to wait.

[Howlin]

Gail, did you get a bump from me in the last few days with one for your list? I can't find it now. Just wanted to make sure you didn't miss one.

[MizSterious]

Thanks, this is a great help. I'm trying to talk sense into someone who thinks he's being framed.

[GailA]

I don't have a ping list, it is a feature I'm just learning to use.

But yes I did get your ping.

We now have a Master list of the galloway and Useless Nation oil for food scam..........List

[mewzilla]

I heard about this this morning. Then on Rush. Has this guy been strung up yet?

[GailA]

Any way to get Hannity on this? RUSH touched on it then went off on another subject. Be sure you let your local State talk host know about this. I've made the 3 in our major markets aware of it.

[backhoe]

Links are appreciated- thanks!

[backhoe]

I'm trying to talk sense into someone who thinks he's being framed.

Lord-a-mercy! Good luck!

[backhoe]

Hannity, Rush, Larry Elder all got emails... Rush was doing a good job on the un's coruption earlier today.
