1. Fuherer Galloway you need to check your legal rights
zionist forever   (08.07.14)
Galloway sounds like a dam Nazi with his talk about Bradford being an Israel free zone the way the Germans had Jew free zones before it was decided to herd them into ghettos. What Heir Galloway doesn't quite realise England is not Nazi Germany. If Israeli tourists are stupid enough to want to visit muslim Bradford Galloway and his thugs can't stop them. Shops in Bradford are allowed to sell Israeli products and Bradford University is allowed to employ Israeli lecturers.
2. This guy's been around forever
arne ,   chicago usa   (08.07.14)
That's how he makes a living--I wouldn't make comment about him--he's a non-entity- He'll fade away.
3. Speak hatred. Get publicity. Oldest and cheapest trick.
Adi ,   Israel   (08.07.14)
Speak hatred. Get publicity. Oldest and cheapest trick.
4. Welcome to Bradfordistan
Benji ,   US   (08.07.14)
King Galloway has declared this a Jew free area. A space where he can spit racist rants, be foul 24/7 and not let anyone speak unless they feed his ego and mimic his agenda. Didn't think the old buzzard was still around. Thought he stroked out some time ago. Mention Israel and he starts frothing at the mouth. Entertaining to watch.
5. We reject this illegal, barb.......
bob ,   chennai   (08.07.14)
1.- But you made it in first and second world wars and your greed to rule...the hidden excuse was there is no concept of India for last 800 years till British rule . Gandhi cease it of with a mantra QUIT INDIA and successfully manage it with the help of all the national leaders like Nehru, Patel and Nethaji but you mange to cut that country in to two so shed blood for a while but when Ms Indira Gandhi made it clear no Bangladesh in Pakistan - that part of the region became silent. 2.Any where the British ruled they left with this mess. 3. In India they took Ahimsa ( non violence) and social protest to make it free at a time there was primitive awareness of human rights and media coverage leading to international attention don't think 1. if you support a himsa protest (killing or eradicating) it will be ever lasting. 2. The only way to rectify the errors you do before for your own concise---( the sound in your soul saying good or bad) is not to support the so called weak but to look at the truth!!! as an MP of British parliament- I no need to furnish with information how Gaza leaders are using this opportunity as a war to make some money and using innocent children and women as their protective shields to gain it please watch the below and please re- think on your statements in a humanitarian way. How much they get in total a) how much an average Gazen get as developements. b) how much will be spent for tunnels or terrorism And c) How much the Hamas leaders get to invest overseas . http://bcove.me/1c3o1j6t Last please watch the french and ndtv reporters how the hamas use or trying to use civilian victims in the war.
6. Excellent news
(08.07.14)
In October many of Bradford's residents will go on Haj and may be exposed to Ebola virus before flying back to Bradford without symptoms. When they get back to Bradford and come down with Ebola they will heroically refuse to take Larry Zeitlin's Ebola medicine. No one can deny that Galloway is a genius.
7. Britain should declare itself a George Galloway-free zone.
Jake   (08.07.14)
8. Infection
Stephen ,   Winston-Salem, USA   (08.07.14)
Wow, Bradford, UK, is terminally infected from the bottom to the top. Pest-ridden trash-heap corner of UK. Should be treated like any landfill, and buried under dirt.
9. Thank you for telling me how you feel...
Erin Priest ,   Israel   (08.07.14)
I will be sure not to visit your area as I have Israeli citizenship. Thank you and have a nice day!
10. Galloway
oscar hernandez ,   honduras   (08.07.14)
hey George, fuck you, nobody gives a shit what you say, go to gaza and fire rockets behind children too you damn fuck
11. i have managed to avoid Bradford all my life and dont intend
(08.07.14)
If you want to see the derelict satanic mills of the North go to Bradford otherwise best avoided.
12. Bradford to be Israeli free zone
Valerie ,   Ra'anana   (08.07.14)
Have you ever been to Bradford? Back in the 60s the joke was that you need a passport to go there. Seriously, this man is an out and out racist, and anti Semite. His political party is called Respect. Who is he respecting. According to the Daily Telegraph the police are investigating his remarks. What is he going to do? Set up border controls.
13. Germany reawakens in Bradford
Dani Konstantin ,   Germany   (08.07.14)
When will he utter the word "Judenrein" and not just think it?
14. Galloway is a hypocrite!!
Barry ,   US   (08.07.14)
He's happy to part with a lecture from a visiting professor, or some Israeli tomatoes, but let's see him follow through by giving up his computer operating chip, his hard drive, his cell phone and many of the medicines he probably takes - all primarily developed in ISRAEL. He's just a HYPOCRITE and a Jew-hater, and pandering to his constituency.
15. Deny him israeli services
Daniel ,   Phoenix, AZ, USA   (08.07.14)
This man is not only misinformed and anti-semetic, but also ignorant. If he want's nothing to do with Israel(ies), then all the technology Israel has provided to the world should be denied to him and his constituency. I wish there were a way to get the word out, but if you have a list of technology that was developed by Israel and is in use over there (it should be rather easy, in fact, cell phones would fit into this category) please list it here. That way, we can send a letter to this Egel indicating if he wants nothing to do with Israel, and Israelies are not welcome in his town, then the following should be avoided as well: Cell Phones Etc. (please reply with answers, including apps like WhatsApp, Waze, etc.) I'll GLADLY write the letter, I just need YOUR help in filling in the list of things he should have removed from his town. I don't think he realizes just how much of his daily life is made easier (or even possible) due to Israeli innovation.
16. Mr Galloway about Israel
noordanus ,   Christchurch New Zea   (08.07.14)
Why is Mr Galloway not protesting against the Barbarians in Syria the Isis in Iraq or the Sunnies and Shiites there is not one Islamic country where the rights of minorities are respected or where there is democracy, ecxept Israel where there are Arabs in Parliament. He should read the memoirs of Sir Winston Churchill about Islam.
17. i know the area. signs saying barbarians only allowed.
ralph   (08.07.14)
18. Well the Brits fail to surprise me
Ed Stack   (08.07.14)
There always seems to be a Brit who is a full blown anti-Israeli and in this case anti-semite Will the Brits never stand up for equality and fairness that they were known for in previous centuries?
19. That dog should've been silenced long ago. My apologies to
tom ,   tel aviv   (08.07.14)
all canines!
20. Time for another Trip to Bradford
Claude ,   UK and Cape Town   (08.07.14)
Visited Hockney Museum last year, via Bradford as Bradford itself can hardly be described as an attractive tourist destination. I visited a post office counter to deliberately test the attitude when asking counter staff to price a postcard to Israel. The reaction would have met with Galloways approval, but as I am persistent I reminded the creep behind the counter, that as public servant she better address ( no pun intended ) my request more politely, as I was asking for a stamp not her opinion, or a formal complaint would follow. Time for another trip to this vile outpost where the Respect Party has lost all its local councillors after they defected from the Galloway nutter. This time I will be more assertive about supporting Israel. It's amazing how this clown of a man has managed to alienate other nutters on the far left like the SWP, many Moslem voters are fed up with his partisan politics within their own community. It really would not surprise me if this creep came to a bloody end. The champagne bottle is chilling in the fridge.
21. and if an Israeli tourist does come there
(08.07.14)
what will you do? I assume you'd ask them politely to leave?
22. Bradford: BRITISH-free zone !
Andre ,   Clichy, France   (08.08.14)
1st muslim-occupied city of the now defunct "United Kingdom". Ruled Britannia...
23. Bradford
Warren ,   Perth, Australia   (08.08.14)
I like their idea. Let them boycott Israeli products and service, but make sure that they do it properly. Remove their computers, mobile phones, food and a lot of their medical treatments and see how they fare without any of the millions of positive things Israelis do for the world.
24. Okay. I can live with that.
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.08.14)
Of course, they will have to discard all their computer equipment, mobile phones, smart phones, iPads, iPods, and pretty much everything along those lines. Each of the foregoing contain chips and software that were developed by, and patented to, Israelis. Israeli-free zone, remember? Hope no one in that zone ever needs chemotherapy. What with it being an Israeli-free zone, and over seventy percent of all chemotherapy protocols developed in Israel, they wouldn't want to be hypocritical, right? Well, they can always use two tin cans and a VERY long piece of string, and they can import a kaffir witch doctor to heal thier sick. Works for me.
25. Galloway
Paul ,   London UK   (08.08.14)
Please realise that a large proportion of the UK population feels that this man is a certifiable loony-toon.
26. George said it unambiguously - he wants Bradford Judenrein
(08.08.14)
George I always suspected you were a national socialist and you proved it tonite.
27. We are hoping that the Scots vote for independence...
Truth Hertz ,   UK   (08.08.14)
The we can deport the dirty little collaborator.
28. George Gallaway
Peter Jones ,   Chelmsford, UK   (08.08.14)
Having taken account of your terms of use, I think it is ok to state that George Gallaway is considered by most in the UK to be "on the fringe". His seat in the UK is in a predominantly Muslim area and he has very little support from the majority of the UK's population. We shall see if the British Police and CPS consider his speech racist or likely to incite racial hatred. If so, then he will be facing a trial and possibly prison. This is not the first time that his utterings or actions have been considered ill-judged.
29. May this human
US citizen ,   Atlanta, US   (08.08.14)
that calls itself George Galloway be rejected by humans with a brain all over the world. May all humans be rejected for their pandering for their livelyhoods in this world.
30. George Galloway
Donna ,   NY, USA   (08.09.14)
Excellent commentary George. We have just declared NY to be a Galloway free zone!!! BTW, none of us have ever even heard of Bradford and all of us will avoid the place at all costs. Make sure none of you are even thinking about coming here. No one that stupid is allowed on these shores!
