Well done Canada...!

Congratulations must surely be extended to Canada for declining to allow the outspoken, odious, wretched, 'infandous' George Galloway entry.

Well done indeed for turning away this Islamist-extremist sympathiser and general purpose whipping boy. It's astonishing: straight after 9/11 his comments were akin to saying 'America got what she was asking for, many people around the world will be delighted about this'; straight after the London bombings his comments were akin to 'oh well, you reap what you sow' - and most recently he has headed up a motorcade travelling through France, Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya and Egypt to reach Gaza, to deliver aid and supplies into the hands of Hamas.

Indeed, it seems that Hamas are so chuffed with the efforts of this attention seeking buffoon that they have presented him with a Palestinian passport. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/7939480.stm)

How can it be that a member of the United Kingdom Parliament can spend so long campaigning and fundraising to support those behind and those who support an inherently terrorist organisation..?(!) Is this what his constituents want him to be doing? If so, it seems to me that somewhere along the lines something has gone badly wrong - i.e. how can a sector of society that must (if that were the case) support terrorist activities and anti-UK aims be allowed to have a voice in the UK Parliament..? But then, I find it very hard to imagine that the majority of Galloway's constituents do support the activities he chooses to engage in - it seems more likely to me that he is content just to carry on and run his own little agenda. 'What is that agenda?', you ask - well check out the t-shirts promoted on his website: http://www.philosophyfootball.com/product_images/pimg4961644291fcf_front

At the end of the day, for whatever reason, Galloway seems (to me) to have positioned himself as the poster-boy (sorry, alternative words fail me) for Islamist-extremist sympathisers in the UK. Whenever there is an 'outrage against Islam', seemingly Galloway is invariably there, blowing hot air into a megaphone, empathising (apparently) or otherwise making sympathetic noises.

George, if the UK really does so little for you that you'd rather channel your time, energy and talents into promoting, and sympathising with those who support, an extremist, terrorist organisation, how about moving, hey? I understand lycra is pretty popular in Afghanistan at the moment...
