Thread: George Galloway vs. SkyNews

Galloway is just one of many people who are pointing out to the biased news networks of the western world, and how easily they are manipulated by politics.

I just had to break a personal vow never to post again here after watching that vid.

Go George.. you tell 'em.

Would that that were truly so. The unfortunate reality is that George and his ilk are like drops in the ocean, when compared to the fatcat materialist men-with-guns who run the world.

Come the revolution..

O? You might like to check out George's radio show on TalkSport Radio (UK), every Friday and Saturday evening at 2200 GMT/BST. Lively stuff.

Yeah, surprisingly enough, I hadn't even heard of the guy until I just StumbledUpon that video. I might have to check out that radio show sometime. I'd like to hear more of what he has to say in a different forum.

Came across this after watching the video above. It's painfully obvious how the interviewer (as well as the previous reporter) is trying to spin the questioning toward answers that would make nationalist viewers see him in a negative light, as well as bulldogging him out of sufficient time to answer the questions in full.

Well, you surprise me. He made international news not that long ago, when he appeared to speak in the US Senate, to answer accusations by a certain Senator who had accused him of a complicit role and bribe-taking in an "arms-for-Iraq" type situation with Saddam Hussein.. (not the original scandal.. a subsequent one). Check out the vids. He absolutely destroys his accusers live on TV in an open Senate session. Wonderful stuff, and cited by many as his finest hour:

Awesome. I will check them out. Thanks!

The video’s not working for me but is that the one where he’s talking about Hezbollah? That was great! He says exactly what I'm thinking when I watch those ridiculous biased reports. It's a wonder they keep letting the bloke on.

Strange for me to be cheering on a left winger.

If it were O'Reilly as the interviewer Galloway would have had his mic cut.

It's funny because it's true.

Yeah, that was the one.

I enjoyed this one, too.

O'Reilly wasn't too bad in that clip. He's always going to have some dumb opinions, but he gave Galloway a relatively fair chance to speak.

Galloway is known as being a bit of a nut over here, but he's often astute.

Obviously Israel is a terrorist nation, and America is essentially their ally. Every single country around Israel has been completely desecrated, as most people are starting to realise with Israel's recent complete destruction of Gaza.

And yet you can't say a word against them without being an “anti-semite”. They even had the gall to try to ban a documentary exposing their terrorism on the grounds that it "Vilified the Jewish state". What a load of twaddle - you can't criticise Israel now without having Nazi sympathies?

I agree that with most of his opinions, Galloway is a nut, but he seems to get the Israel/US situation spot on. Almost makes me wonder if he's been planted to make the truth look bad.
