More Evidence Surfaces on Galloway and Saddam

Power Line

This morning, the staff of Senator Norm Coleman's Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations gave a press briefing to preview a new report on George Galloway's testimony before the subcommittee last May. The announcement of the press briefing said:
    The briefing will provide a detailed analysis of 
    Galloway's sworn testimony as it relates to significant 
    new information in the form of interviews, documents, 
    bank account information, and Iraqi documents uncovered 
    by the Subcommittee regarding the Oil-for-Food scandal.
The only article I've seen on the report is in Britain's left-wing Independent; the article is titled "Galloway lied over Iraqi oil payments, says Congress report." An excerpt:

<<<

In a report issued here, Minnesota Senator Norm Coleman and his colleagues on the Senate Subcommittee for Investigations claim to have evidence showing that Mr Galloway's political organisation and his wife received vouchers worth almost $600,000 (£338,000) from the then Iraqi government.

"We have what we call the smoking gun," said Mr Coleman, who will send the report to the US Department of Justice and the British authorities. The MP could face charges of perjury, making false statements and obstructing a Congressional investigation.

Galloway, of course, denies receiving any money from Saddam; he claims to have supported the tyrant for free.
