George Galloway Died for Our Sins

I missed this story at the time, but old George Galloway, the laughing stock of the British Parliament, made another boffo statement back in October when he described Hamas butcher Yahya Sinwar and Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah as “martyrs”.

Of course, one could excuse George because we all know the guy is off his rocker, but on second thought, no we can’t because he is a classic jerk who has supported pure evil for decades. This is the guy who toured the US back in 2009 speaking at college campuses and passing the hat to take up a collection for his Viva Palestina cause that contributed to  Hamas coffers. He also spoke at UC Irvine and called little ol’ me a “liar”. George and several of his misfit pro-Hamas activists personally delivered the kitty to then-Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Gaza. Israel also made a “martyr” out for Haniyeh after the outbreak of fighting following the October 7, 2023 massacre of innocent Israelis, an atrocity that Galloway could care less about.

Galloway has a long history of associating with odious characters like Saddam Hussein and his two equally murderous sons, Uday and Kusay, all of whom we also made “martyrs” when we invaded Iraq. He also made the trek to Damascus to kiss the ring of Bashar Assad when he was in power and praised him to the skies. George will have to fly to somewhere in Russia to visit Assad now.

To say that Galloway is on the wrong side of history would be an understatement.

I have long given up on the proposition that the British public in his constituency would vote this boob out of office. Like US politicians like Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, his position is safe because he represents a largely Muslim district somewhere in the bowels of the formerly Great Britain.

Galloway would deny that he is an anti-Semite, but his blind support for Hamas and other terrorists make any denials useless. You can’t defend people like Haniyeh, Sinwar, and Nasrallah and deny you are an anti-Semite.  

The plain truth is that Galloway is a despicable person. He is also dishonest. When he called me a liar for pointing out that pro-Palestinian demonstrators in the US had been chanting for Jews to go back to the ovens, Stand With Us put out a video with the very videos documenting my accusations. I wrote to him and sent him the videos, but, of course, he never responded. Any intellectually honest person would have responded and said that he was in error and condemned such statements. Not George Galloway.

Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Is he even aware? Does he even care?
