| Post subject: | Galloway congratulates Hizbollah |
ITV 8.54, Sat Aug 26 2006 MP George Galloway has congratulated Hizbollah on its "victory" in Israel. At a news conference in a Beirut hotel, the controversial politician said: "I came here to extend my congratulations to the Lebanese people on a great and historic victory against this aggression. "I want to congratulate the Lebanese resistance and their leading edge, Hizbollah, whose martyrs and her s have achieved this great victory. "And in particular to their leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, whose name now rings in joy around the world." Galloway is in Beirut to present a phone-in radio show for a British radio station. He also condemned Prime Minister Tony Blair's response to Israel's war with Hizbollah. "Tony Blair did everything he could to extend, to prolong, to intensify the suffering of the people of Lebanon. The blood of these thousands is on his hands," he said. Galloway is known for his outspoken comments and was kicked out of the Labour party for his outspoken opposition to the Iraq war. |
