I am most interested in this story though. If Galloway is found guilty, I would expect him to be dealt with severely What you get for treason these days in the UK? Life imprisonment I would hope.

Hmmm, Mr. Ritter already on the defensive. Anyway, Scott Ritter chips in...I have grown highly suspicious of dramatic revelations conveniently timed to silence a vocal voice of dissent. Is Scott Ritter Credible? aim.org ...We hate to say it, but Scott Ritter has apparently sold out. He received $400,000 from an Iraqi-American businessman with close ties to Saddam for the purpose of producing a documentary called "In Shifting Sands." The Weekly Standard described it as a film that "would chronicle the weapons-inspection process" and quoted Ritter as saying it would "de-demonize" Iraq...

>> Having been on the receiving end of smear campaigns << As far as I know, Ritter's never denied soliciting sexual acts from an undercover policeman posing as a young girl on the Internet. He evades the question, refuses to discuss it, but never denies it. Nor can he deny the fact that he changed his opinion about Saddam's WMD at about the same time he was given several hundred thousand dollars by one of Saddam's supporters to make a documentary that doesn't appear to have ever been made.
