Before the invasion of Iraq Galloway was a leading and elequent anti war opponent.
At that time he was still a Labour member of parliament.
He said that the invasion would be a major war crime and that Bush and Blair would be war criminals.It was a crime and the two should answer to war crimes charges.
Galloway said that the invasion of Iraq would lead to death and destruction on a huge scale and he was right.Operation Shock and Awe was launched by the Americans and the British forces and death rained down on the civilian population of Iraq.They were killed and maimed in their homes and apartments,their markets and their mosques,on their streets and in their clinics.They were killed by cruise missiles,high explosive bombs,uranium shells,the modern equivalent of napalm and sniper fire.
Galloway said that Iraq would be plunged into barbarism and it has been...the sectarian mayhem, the massacres,the malnutrition and the lack of water and electricity in one of the hottest countries in the world
Tens of thousands of Iraqi children are suffering in this appalling Bush and Blair made situation.
Bush and Blair said that the Iraqis had weapons of mass destruction but they lied and thousands have died.Galloway was correct and pointed the finger... and that is why he is hated by the chickenhawks and the war crew.
They have been out to get him ever since but he has taken them on time and time again..and won. He may or may not be a hero but those warmongering critics of his belong in the dock and are not fit to clean his shoes.
