Attempt on Blair's life would be "morally justified."

[Keystone Phil]

Yep, you guessed it - Galloway said it.  http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060526/ap_on_re_eu/britain_galloway But our pal would be nice enough to tell the police if any such attempt was about to occur.

Anyone out there that still doesn't believe in a horrible place in the after-life for these people?

As soon as you start trying to justify attempts to kill political opponents, you're on the wrong end of a nasty wedge... there is a very perverse element to his justification, although I'll assume you've all spotted that...

Stephen Pound (Labour M.P for Ealing North) should get the last word on this:

""Every time you think he can't sink any lower he goes and stuns you again."

You're right. Ordering the death of thousands is a lot worse than killing a single person. Galloway's statement implies that one individual Brit is worth thousands of Iraqis.

Who exactly is he attacking here?

No; the bit about saying it would be morally justified for a *suicide bomber* to try to kill Blair (not that the idea of thinking nothing is wrong with shooting or blowing up a political opponent gets any worse if a suicide bomber were to do it) due to civilian deaths in Iraq.

Seems a little strange... wait...

I've just remembered that Respect has happily labeled all the trade unionists that have been murdered as "collaberators"; presumably they think they same about the other people killed by suicide bombers.

Hey, they're a coalition of Trots and people like Dr Naseem so maybe logic or sanity doesn't come into it...

Now judging by the media coverage of Iraq over here ("...50 dead in sucide bombing... yaaaawwwn... 5 people shot outside... yaaaawwwn... a British soldier... wait! A British soldier has stubbed his toe! Stick it on the ticker, and get Damian Day MCVII on it now!!!!!!11111") I think you know the answer to that

I don't know. He probably doesn't either. Poor dear.

Galloway keeps getting more looney as time goes by.

[The Man From G.O.P.]

Galloway needs to be hung

Galloway needs to be hung

Paintings are hung. People are hanged.

[Democratic Hawk]

And George Galloway getting beheaded on Tower Hill would be "morally justified" but you won't hear me calling for it

Thank you!

Galloway needs a swift (well maybe not swift) kick in the balls.

Thank you!

Nowadays, men are hung and women are neither. Except in some African countries, people aren't hanged anymore.
