The end part of Galloway's statement at a hearing on Capitol Hill. Looks like Galloway wont be attending any wine and cheese parties in Washington for awhile.

Braveheart takes on the Yank bullies. I think they were totally unprepared for him. I watched the whole 47 minute clip , boy those two senators must have been squirming. I noticed the "neo con" Yank press never featured the hearing the way Canadian and Brit news sources did...hmmm? Too embarrassed maybe?

Maybe I'll start eating hagus

We also watched the show live on BBC World down here. No Yank in the room fortunatly. Is is refreshing to hear someone who can speak and knows his language. It is nice to see an outsider denounce the double standards that are too prevalent in US politics.
Talking about double standards, The Yanks put Martha Stewart behind bars for six months for making 76,000 USD. Yet that same country would like Khodorkovsky to walk free. The man made 15B in a few years and it is all legal?
