1. Jerusalem
Matthew ,   Switzerland   (08.03.05)
"these two beautiful Arab daughters" Daughter of Zion - an Arab daughter? Jerusalem was, is and will always be the heart of the Jewish people. At least, Galloway is right when he says that Jerusalem is raped by foreigners, since the Muslim Waqf authority has been busy destroying archaeological artifacts on the Temple Mount for several years.
2. Britons have lost their minds.

3. The tide is turning
Jenin, Palestine   (08.03.05)
Finally someone have the courage to say the truth and revolt against the corruption of the world on the hands of the Zionist, and this could be the snow ball which will sweep evil and bring tranquility, harmony and peace back to earth 57 years of taking the world hostage is enough, enough lies enough killing, enough massacres, enough......enough.......enough The problem is with Occupation, Complying with UN resolutions by retreating to the 1967 borders removing all settlements from all occupied lands including Jerusalem, the return of refugees to their homes will be to the best interest of Israel, Israel can only survive with peace with the Palestinians and its neighbors, Stop dreaming and come to reality, nothing will prevent the inevitable. Israel is buying time its on life support now, how long can you stay like that before the tide starts turning against you, American support will not last forever, America will be looking after its own interest and it will not be siding with Israel forever. So hurry before it’s too late, STOP DREAMING 57 YEARS IS ENOUGH SLEEP WAKE UP?????!!!!
4. Jerusalem
Birdi ,   Israel   (08.03.05)
Galloway & Ken Livingstone need to be sent to Siberia for the rest of their lives.
5. Extreme left and islamism, eternal love
Ignacio ,   Zaragoza, Spain   (08.03.05)
Although I do understand the news behind the text, this kind of stuff is not really new at all. Since WWII, the world has condemned extreme right parties, but not extreme left ones. As a result, the left, without any equilibria, got skyrocketed in its diatribes, and now the rocket is landing... on islam-o-land. This EXACT discurse is the same we have here in Spain, changing the arab paraphernalia with basque's or catalonian's. What we, the west should do, is to behave as what we are, civilized people, ban these radical marxist parties, and isolate the radical muslim world, and of course, apply the Bush theory. Standing quiet before these killers is not civilized, its simply stupid.
6. a NAZI with a BRITISH accent
rani   (08.03.05)
nothing less than a NAZI with a British accent and Muslim constituency
7. George Galloway
T. A. Adams ,   Oklahoma City USA   (08.03.05)
George Galloway is a socialist, heathen idiot, the likes of which the world hasn't seen since Hitler.
8. One simple question
Matthew ,   Switzerland   (08.03.05)
You claim that the occupation is the problem and that Israel retreating to the 1967 border and removing all 'settlements' would bring peace. Then answer me the following question: Why wasn't an independent state of Palestine established between 1948 and 1967, when Judea and Samaria was in the hands of Jordan? Back then there were no settlements, because all Jews living there were ethnically cleansed by the Jordanian Arab hordes. Do you have an answer?
9. Morons #3
Andy ,   Israel   (08.03.05)
You think that Zionists control the world. You agree with people like Galloway who justifies suicide bombers against civilians (so called freedom fighting). With deluded morons like this, we Israelis are safe.
10. Sent to Siberia?
Samir ,   Canada   (08.03.05)
The problem with most of the Israelis that they don't like anyone to tell the truth about what they are doing to the Palestinians or they should be sent to Siberia. They dream that the entire world should be sent to Siberia so that no one notice what they are doing. why don't you Birdi ask the authorities to send Ilan pappe, Israel Shamir, Gideon levy, Amira Hass, Norman Finkelstein, Naom chomsky and many others to Siberia. I think the best way for you is to close your ears; you know what, may be you should go to Siberia so you stop listening to truth.
11. #3
Pesach ,   Israel   (08.03.05)
There is no place as Jenin Palestine. I live in Palestine and have never heard of such a place. I quess there are many dreamers and those who have no memories of pre 1967 Isreal/Palestine under Jordan. But then nobody likes Jews as we are the only witnesses to the lies of Islam and Christianity that have been propagated for centuries that are all idol worshipers. Keep looking for Jenin Palestine. and good luck I think it is the other side of the Jordan
12. Galloway's really gone bonkers...
(08.03.05)
A bed should be ready for him at Cuckoo's Nest Mental Hospital! Electric Shock treatment should do the trick!
13. GALLOWAY
JAY ,   CHICAGO   (08.03.05)
WITH ALL OF THE SCANDALS HE HAS BEEN INVLOVED IN, I CANT BELIEVE HE IS NOT IN JAIL. Not for his words, but ofr his actions. He has been linked to taking bribes from Saddam and embezeling money from his so called charity to line his own pockets. And after the recent terror attacks, he is DUMB ENOUGH to make a statement like this. He spits in the face of every British soldier and terror attack victim. He should retire form Parliment and oppen up his own lobbying firm because thats all he does, lobby for the Arabs. At least this way, he could oppenly and officially accept payment for it.
14. ahem, Number 3
Eyal ,   Tlv.il   (08.03.05)
yoo hoo For one million dollars, can you please tell the panel why the Arabs turned down the UN partition in 48? and, to take home a bonus prize of, a weekend away at the Hilton in Jerusalem for 2, tell me why the palestinins didn't demand their homeland when it was Occupied by Jordon and Egypt? Just answer those two questions, correctly, and you will be the envy of your friends!
15. Galloway... Jenin... lollipop lovers unite
Sean ,   SA   (08.03.05)
If it were WWII he'd be sucking Hitler's lollipop. What irks me about these moron rabbi's and that shmuck who cursed Sharon is that they have terrible aim. Better they should have sent fiery angels of destruction on Red Ken Livingston and Galloway, the true enemies of Israel and the civilised world. Isn't this how we lost the 2nd Temple? Y'know, when we still ran the place 2000 years ago? When brother fought brother. Yeah, that's it, silly Yids cursing other Yids when we should be fighting the Romans together.
16. actually, galloway is right
mike ,   usa   (08.03.05)
the "raping" is being done by the foreign muslims. they arrived on the scene only 1400 years ago and have been unwelcome guests ever since. they should GO HOME! and take your foreign galloway boy with you.
17. Re: #1 Matthew
Michael ,   UK   (08.03.05)
All what Galloway says is 100% true, the Israeli's always behaving like this when some one just show the world their terorist acts against Palestinians.The Israeli are the one who are continuosly trying to destroy Aqsa Mosque. He described British prime minister Tony Blair and American president George Bush as "terrorists," saying, "It's not the Muslims who are the terrorists. The biggest terrorists are Bush, and Blair, and Berlusconi, and Aznar, but it is definitely not a clash of civilizations. George Bush doesn't have any civilization, he doesn't represent any civilization."
18. This guy is scary
UFIA ,   Israel   (08.03.05)
it must have took him hours to come up with the metaphor that would anger muslims the most. Daughter being raped indeed. What is he trying to do?
19. sheko'ach 'Gorgeous George'; well said!
accessol ,   Spelthorne, England   (08.03.05)
Galloway was right from day one: American soldiers are dropping like ninepins in Iraq and who does the US have to thank for these deaths; why, its very own dear little friend Israel, together with a chorus of 5th columnist neo-concervative likudniks, promising a welcome of flowers and kisses from a grateful Iraqi population. Ha Ha Ha. Hopefully George Bush and Condi Rice will always remember just who got them into this mess (and it wasn't Stan Laurel)
20. STOP YOU SAVAGE-YOU MIGHT MAKE AL QAEDA LAUGH TO DEATH

21. Democracy triumphs yet again
Eyal ,   Tlv.il   (08.03.05)
By a VAST majority the respondents to this poll are in favour of flushing Gallopaway down the toilet. But only after we have wiped his accessol clean. A difficult task, I admit, but with the right detergent avery accessol is wiped away never to return.
22. When did A "Palestinian" country exist? NEVER!
Daisy ,   USA   (08.03.05)
The "palestine" land and people are a sham! These Arabs should be sent back to Arabia where they came from!
23. galloway and cesspool, sitting in a tree, K.I.L.L.I.N.G.
cliff from montreal ,   Canada   (08.03.05)
Yep that two birds of a feather.Not a club any decent human being would want to be in! eh?
24. George Galloway is a joke!
Abdullah ,   Kuwait City   (08.04.05)
Mr. George Galloway is damaged goods! He lost a dear friend and financier (Saddam) and now he is dispread for money!
25. Traitors: Wacky George & ACCESSerol
Park ,   Hong Kong   (08.04.05)
-Charged: Treason, Islamic apoligist, ACCESSory to terror, Traitor, 5th Columnist, Useful idiot and Fool! -Judgement: Guily on all counts -Sentence: Accessoral-Deportation to the most Taliban-like Islamic regime George-A seat next to a homicide bomb detonation ARAB/MUSLIM CULTURE & VIOLENCE The problem is with their cultural narrative. It is quite simply backwards and stuck in the middle ages, dreaming of what once was. They still seem only to know mindless violence. Violence against Christians, Jews, Hindus, Budhists, animists, other Muslims (Sunni vs Shia, religious vs secular, family vs family, clan vs clan, tribe vs tribe, nation vs nation), etc. Various conflicts and terror attacks in the Middle East, Africa, Indian Subcontinent, Central Asia, SE Asia, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, North America, Latin America, etc. (Do I need to list out all of the individual countries?) Violence against their own families, clans and women in general. Slaughtering their own daughters, sisters, etc for reasons of honor. Ordering of gang rape for reasons of honor. Jailing of their wives for reasons of honor, etc. Refusal to acknowlede rape unless there are four witnesses and then jailing the victim for adultery. Stoning of homosexuals and adulterers. Forced female genital mutilation. Vendettas lasting decades, etc. Beheadings, defiling of bodies, suicide bombing and other various orgies of violence. Women, children, elderly, invalids, mentally impaired (victims and perpetrators). Hospitals, schools, houses of worship...is nothing sacred? What is wrong with these people? Is it a feeling of impotence that drives them to commit these acts? Is it the sexual repression (which is why women need to coverup)? The Arab/Muslim world needs to be a bit more honest and introspective and stop looking to blame everyone and everything else, but themselves, for their problems. The Arab and Muslim world only need buy itself a mirror and take a good long clear look into themselves, their cultures and their societies. The truth shall set them free...
26. @ #3 "the tide is turning"
Pieter ,   the Netherlands   (08.04.05)
The tide is turning?...Yes, you can bet your life on it! It’s an understatement, although that I don’t think that this "tide" is going the way you would like to see it. At least, not in Western Europe……and believe me,… I know,…. I live there. For your information: After the attacks in the US, Spain and the UK, people like Galloway have become a minority. Just a few more attacks and they will be extinct. Good luck.
27. Galloway - to the Gallows
barry ,   tokyo   (08.04.05)
This Scottish clown needs to be jailed for incitement when he returns to Londonistan
28. Galloway
mohan ,   canberra, Australia   (08.04.05)
I have read Galloway's speeches and articles while in the UK. He is far more measured and coherent than waht your report suggests. Coming to Ronnie Fraser's condemnation of Galloway, Fraser seems to ignore the fact that while Jews have lived in Jerusalem for centuries, the Zionists are a 19th century colonialists who came there as settlers and refugees and are ethnically cleansing Palestine and Jerusalem.
29. Palestinian country
mohan ,   Canberra, Australia   (08.04.05)
Learn your history Daisy ! There were Palestinians under the Ottaman empire long before the Mayflower landed at Plymouth harbour. There were Palestinians before the European colonisers massacred and exterminated the Native Americans. What did not exist was Israel until Herzl's project of colonisation and mass displacement of the Palestinians. The Palestinians did not have a government of their own and the British and Zionist terror prevented the formation of a Palestinian state.
30. the langauge of hatred and incitement
tom ,   toronto, canada   (08.04.05)
it's idiots like this that give free speech a bad name. if this video doesn't qualify as incitement to violence, then what does? if tony blair is serious about doing anything to stop further islamist violence, then he should charge and convict idiots like this, and put them away for a very long (and lonely) time. the propaganda war is very real and very dangerous, and the west (including israel) cannot afford to ignore it. pray for the peace of zion.
