Gearge Galloway taken to hospital

GG was posing for pictures so it wasn't in response to anything he said at the time.

depending on previous history and good character etc. the assailant could get 2 to 3 years for GBH.

Galloway, on his radio show just a few years ago, challenged one
of his callers to a boxing match...this is why the lower classes should
not be allowed in politics, it really is typical !

What kind of an image does this send to the rest of the world, a British politician brawling in the street.
Dreadful times.

egg throwing is the norm

pity they didn't smack the odious c$nt harder

George should have to explain his behaviour to parliament, as soon as he can speak.

Keep casting out lfc1971, right next to the lily pads you may get lucky.

Hopefully this sort of thing catches on and more politicians are on the receiving end.

He went to far with his rant on Israel but at the same time, when Israel were using completely disproportionate attacks on Gaza and with Cameron not saying a word, I didn't see as much contempt for him then as being shown towards Galloway now, what's worse, Cameron a leader of a country turning a blind eye whilst kids are being killed on beaches and in hospitals and schools or Galloway going on a rant asking to boycott Israeli goods?

I agree with Charwell, a 32 year old beating the living daylights out of a 60 year old for having an opinion be it strong, is out of order, you'd have to be a bit of a knuckle dragger to think otherwise. Always enjoyed his radio show on talksport but don't agree with much of what he says either.

would be ironic if hospital doctor was jewish

An over simplification SH re hitting him for having an opinion.
I'm not condoning the violence used against him but Galloway does spout bile at times and goes way over the top in his condemnation of anything he disagrees with which, given the amount of nutters roaming the street, isn't the cleverest thing to do.
As regards his recent attack on the Israeli's he much further than just asking his constituents to boycott Israeli goods he urged them to refuse to serve Jews or have anything to do with them.
That's the mark of a bitter and twisted man with a hatred for Israel and it's people rather than someone showing sympathy to the Palestinians.

Israel ' s attacks on Palestine are wrong. Sanctions against Israel are required. Galloway was right to voice his condemnation for this oppressor. If he spewed hatred towards Jews, this was wrong.
Receiving a violent attack was disproportionate. The thug needs punishing.


Jet Davison  - regretting that Galloway wasn't beaten to death, is the most moronic statement I've read on this forum.

As Jewish survivors and descendants of survivors and victims of the Nazi genocide we unequivocally condemn the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza and the ongoing occupation and colonization of historic Palestine. We further condemn the United States for providing Israel with the funding to carry out the attack, and Western states more generally for using their diplomatic muscle to protect Israel from condemnation. Genocide begins with the silence of the world.

We are alarmed by the extreme, racist dehumanization of Palestinians in Israeli society, which has reached a fever-pitch. In Israel, politicians and pundits in The Times of Israel and The Jerusalem Post have called openly for genocide of Palestinians and right-wing Israelis are adopting Neo-Nazi insignia.


Furthermore, we are disgusted and outraged by Elie Wiesel’s abuse of our history in these pages to justify the unjustifiable: Israel’s wholesale effort to destroy Gaza and the murder of more than 2,000 Palestinians, including many hundreds of children. Nothing can justify bombing UN shelters, homes, hospitals and universities. Nothing can justify depriving people of electricity and water.

We must raise our voices and use our collective power to bring about an end to all forms of racism, including the ongoing genocide of Palestinian people. We call for an immediate end to the siege against and blockade of Gaza. We call for the full economic, cultural and academic boycott of Israel. “Never again” must mean NEVER AGAIN FOR ANYONE!



This statement by Jewish people  condemning the Attacks by Israel , hardly makes the  voice of Galloway  anti Jewish .

Meeow did Galloway say anything about Rotherham?because he encouraged it,he should learn to stay out of christian lands.

Can we deport him if the scot's vote for independence?
as an undesirable or will he quote human rights?

Deport him!

Why ? What's he said that's controversial ?

He must have said something to make that nice young man so angry.

Doesn't take much, too many knuckle dragging rock apes around these days

Unfortunately this is what happens when you have unbalanced law.  How is it right that Galloway is allowed to openly spout anti-Semite bile in this day and age?  Jews are obviously going to feel unfairly dealt with by the UK's law and policing and are going to take matters into their own hands.

"Why ? What's he said that's controversial ? "

He wanted to make Bradford an Israeli free zone.  Try substituting "Israeli" with another nationality and see how that sounds.

I loved his rant at the senate though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrdFFCnYtbk

Shameful behaviour at the senate, the US could not believe that someone
from Britain could be so loutish...of course Britain is guickly becoming known
as a country of religious fanatics and murderers.

He was top drawer at the senate and spoke with facts, the Americans don't like the truth rammed up  them, bit on a **** aren't we lfc, seemingly you support an English club but are the NUMBER ONE anti-English poster, I think you are a confuse little BOY eaten up with self hate.

Keep your shirt on! , a country and how it is percievedby the rest of the world
can change surprisingly guickly.

YOU are always ranting and PUTTING DOWN Britain, admit it,

I will admit many places are a s***hole, and it has a shameful history,  but reaseons for that are mostly down to FEW individuals who didn't colonise the world in my name, didn't open the floodgates to immigration with my permission, let's face it though, almost every worthwhile invention is British.

welcome to the forum, Ray Wilkins.

Britain has a glorious history.

He said something the other day about declaring somewhere in England as an "Israel Free Zone".

If someone else had said say Tower Hamlets was to be a " Free Zone" Galloway would be first in line screaming they should be arrested for it. And they probably would be, which appears a bit of a double standard.

Read my earlier post.

He's not being anti-Semite. He's condemning the bombing of Palenstine Jews by Israleli Jews.

Cmt


As in Neanderthals.

The political  tide has turned against Galloway he should be looking over his shoulder wherever he goes,unlike Enoch Powell he will not be remembered as a visionary,he  took a mother of a beating and he asked for it.

Feel sorry for the hospital.

He's not being anti-Semite. He's condemning the bombing of Palenstine Jews by Israleli Jews.

well said facts, Palestinian Arabs there

I like George...he says it as it is
Some people do not like hearing the truth
get well soon George.
they won't silence you I know it

The fact that someone feels the need to beat George up...because of his comments on Israel
does the Israeli cause no good at all, believe me

Galloway and truth. Two words ive never seen in a sentence before.

Dotchinite and truth...I do not believe I have heard them either

luckily I am anonymous...you cant beat me up
I am a keyboard warrior

Can't believe that this has got to its second page without anybody pointing out the misspelling of the name "George" in the thread title!

Have Chit-Chat standards slipped so low?

Difficult not to smile really.

^ that's because you're a tw@t. Hth

Thanks for telling me arseface.

pumphol

get well soon george, freedom of speech will always prevail over violence...

not this time

oh sorry you must be right.!! george discharged from hospital, and some idiot waiting to get banged up on an abh charge.

  surely even you can work that one out.

Lets hope he has eyes in the back of his head when he ventures out of his enclave next time one mans free speech is anothers racism and Galloway was a serial player of the race card .

thought george bit of a boxer
more like a ****cat imo

he got lessons Audrey

Indefatigable

"We don't even want any Israeli tourists to come to Bradford even if any of them had thought of doing so”

Quote from George on 2nd August 2014. If that's not hate mongering I don't know what is. Very hard to have any sympathy for the man he might choose his words more carefully in the future.

Must say I was both shocked and disappointed with this story as it developed.

Shocked that Gorgeous George had been assaulted and had to go to hospital.

Disappointed when I read he had been discharged.

why the phuck would any Israeli tourist want to go to bradford

Shame the bloke didnt do a proper job. Vile human being

@Facts
You finished your post by stating:

This statement by Jewish people condemning the attacks by Israel hardly makes the voice of Galloway anti Jewish.

I'm struggling to see your logic given that Galloway asked that all Jewish visitors to Bradford be shunned and that they should refuse to serve them in shops and etc..

The guy who thumped him will probably be jailed and rightly so but I still can find no sympathy for Galloway who has stood up for murdering terrorists both here and abroad. He's an opportunist odious wee cant who the Scottish public saw through years ago hence he fled down south.

Also a huge fan of Saddam. A torturer and murderer. What goes around...

Ironically the last thing he tweeted before this attack was a warning to Alex Salmond that he would hold him responsible for any physical attacks on him from the Yes campaigners, while speaking on his Just Say Naw tour. George of course is no stranger to attacks and confrontations, but his fears were wildly misplaced this time.

@Platini
It's Jim Murphy who's on the Just say Naw tour and it was him that tweeted the warning to Salmond.

akabula


'......The MP for Bradford West said in a speech that Bradford had been "declared an Israel-free zone" and urged people to reject all Israeli goods, services academics and tourists......'




Think the key word here is Israel, not all Jewish

Had a look on Jim Murphy's twitter account and couldn't see that tweet anywhere.

This is what I see (on GG's Twitter) : https://twitter.com/georgegalloway/status/505417524927004674

Facts
It may have been wrong but the report I read mentioned the word Jew. Lets assume he didn't and you're post is accurate. He has still asked people to boycott tourists. (I can't imagine Bradford getting many tourists from anywhere in the world but he still said it)
That assumes that they must support the actions of their government. Galloway should have stopped short at condemning the bombings and etc., but he can't help himself such is his hatred for Israel and it's people.

@Platini
I was going by the reports in one of todays papers and they attributed that tweet to Murphy. It was alongside separate article on Galloway.

On reflection it is more like Galloway than Murphy to say something like that. As an aside I can understand Murphy's position on independence given his political position but Galloway's is strange.

Aka, you still read the papers? Let it go man, it's all BS, propaganda and agendas.
The truth is out there, its on Twitter.

hope george makes a speedy and full recovery, and the scumbag coward who thinks it clever to attack old men is dealt with

by the full force of the law.

@Platini
I still can't understand why Galloway supports the Union.

why not? you mean because he's a Celtic man?

No.
Because he never misses a chance to stick the boot in to the UK and shows sympathy to anyone we are in conflict with.

Obviously being the opportunist that he is there must be something in it for him.

"'......The MP for Bradford West said in a speech that Bradford had been "declared an Israel-free zone" and urged people to reject all Israeli goods, services academics and tourists......'

Facts - are you simple?  Do you think it would be acceptable for someone to declare a town a "Pakistan free zone" after the Rotherham child abuse?  Of course it wouldn't, and nor is it acceptable for Galloway.

Galloway took a slap, no big deal. Marginally worse than an egging. He'll live

It couldn't have been serious, he's out and about tonight.

He took a beating for about 3 minutes. The two Moroccan gentlemen he was posing for photo with at the time were of an age and of little physical help.

His ribs took a proper kicking by all accounts.

A brilliant politician to be admired by all.

Beating him up will only strengthen his will.

So you're happy with public anti-Semitism?

I'm happy Israel's disproportionate attacks on Gaza were attempted to be highlighted albeit by a politician on the fringes, whereas the leader of our country kept his mouth shut. Like I said, we need more George Galloway's.

nothing wrong with being passionate, if indeed he has spouted race hate abuse he wouldnt be walking the streets.

Demagogue.

Cleon would be horrified..

"I'm happy Israel's disproportionate attacks on Gaza were attempted to be highlighted albeit by a politician on the fringes"

Would you be happy for a fringe politician to declare an "anti Pakistan" city in the UK in response to the child abuse in Rotherham?

I wouldn't.  So if you are happy for the same to be said of Israel then you are disgusting imo.

why then is he still walking the streets ( albeit with a limp ) if he has broken race hate laws go to your nearest police station

  and report him.....no i didnt think so.

From The Guardian Tues.Aug 19th.
Respect MP George Galloway has been interviewed by police under caution after claims that he incited racial hatred by declaring Bradford an "Israel-free zone".
A police spokesman said that the matter would be referred to the Crown Prosecution Service for their consideration once inquiries are completed.


He might still get locked up.

acq 12 can get a VO

...FIVE men, including four from Bradford, have been jailed for a total of more than 28 years for trafficking a 13-year-old girl for sex.

Shakeal Rehman, 26, of Haworth Road, Bradford, was found guilty of rape and trafficking the girl, who was taken to Bradford after running away from her home in Sheffield

He was jailed for 12 years today by Judge Jonathan Durham-Hall at the end of a four-week long trial.

Yaseen Amini, 37, of Broadway, Bradford, and Mohammed Shapal, 22, also of Haworth Road, Bradford, were both found guilty of sexual activity with a child and trafficking.

....and the connection between this and mr galloway is what may i ask ?????

George likes the grevilles.

Haworth Road used to be a lovely area.

Obviously when this happened some time ago it wasn't a racist attack.

  What do the MP s in Bradford have to say about this? In particular Galloway? He usually has plenty to say?

George keeping schtum on this, they're his friends.

He wouldn't stay quiet for long if the paedophiles were Jewish.

Epilogue.

....nothing to do with what george thinks.....this was an open and shut case dealt with by a court of law, and the scum involved got

what was coming to them imo.
