By contributors | Sep. 27, 2014
BBC
George Galloway told a former member of Tony Blair and Gordon Browns cabinets she killed one million people in Iraq. The former Labour MP, now a Respect MP, turned on Jacqui Smith as they looked ahead to Fridays vote in Parliament on possible UK military action in the Middle East.
Ed. note: It isnt so much that one necessarily agrees with Galloways alternative in every detail so much as that it is refreshing to see politicians speaking frankly and having such sentiments appear on national television. When has any of the networks aired a US Congressman talking to a Bush cabinet member this way? -JRC
