Another hero of the libs shows his true colors. Galloway: Assassinations Justified By Captain Ed on War on Terror Captain's Quarters George Galloway told an interviewer for the magazine GQ that an assassination of Tony Blair would have justification considering Blair's political positions and decisions, providing the latest in a series of embarrassments for the British Parliament. Galloway also embraced Cuba's Fidel Castro on Cuban television, pronouncing the dictator as a lion among monkeys: <<< The Respect MP George Galloway has said it would be morally justified for a suicide bomber to murder Tony Blair. In an interview with GQ magazine, the reporter asked him: "Would the assassination of, say, Tony Blair by a suicide bomber - if there were no other casualties - be justified as revenge for the war on Iraq?" Mr Galloway replied: "Yes, it would be morally justified. I am not calling for it - but if it happened it would be of a wholly different moral order to the events of 7/7. It would be entirely logical and explicable. And morally equivalent to ordering the deaths of thousands of innocent people in Iraq - as Blair did." >>> Galloway left his critics dumbfounded with this endorsement of violence over electoral politics. One PM called him "disgraceful and truly twisted", while the Minister for Armed Forces said that he had "dipped his poisonous tongue in a pool of blood." Even a leading anti-war group in the UK found it necessary to distance itself from Galloway's appalling proclamation. Bear in mind that all of this got reported last night by the British newspaper The Independent, which is known for its support of radical-leftist causes. Galloway could normally expect sympathetic treatment by this particular newspaper, but excusing assassinations of democratically elected leaders goes beyond the pale even for the Independent. The shock is not understandable. Galloway practically made a career of supporting brutal dictators, and he hasn't changed a bit. Galloway pimped for Saddam Hussein for years, and only recently have investigators at the UN and in the US shown that Saddam paid him well for those efforts. His appearance on state-run Cuban television took viewers by surprise when he launched into heavy praise for the island's dictator. He referred to Castro's political opponents as "monkeys", and put a coda on the moment by "[l]ooking approvingly into each others' eyes" before embracing Castro. Galloway has made a long career supporting brutal tyrants; it comes as no great shock that he endorses their methods as well. The voters of east London should be ashamed of themselves for sending such a sick man to represent them. The only true constituency for Galloway wears long, wraparound sleeves and resides within padded walls. captainsquartersblog.com news.independent.co.uk
