Galloway vows to break Gaza 'blockade'
Former British MP George Galloway has announced that he plans to lead a land and sea convoy to break Israel's 'blockade' of Gaza right after Ramadan (Hat Tip: NY Nana). “Following our negotiations in Istanbul, I can announce to you that the day after Ramadan [September 10], two mighty convoys, one by sea and one by land, will begin” he said to rapturous applause. “The land convoy will leave from London, will travel though Europe, Turkey, Syria and Jordan, and it will sail from Aqaba to Sinai and enter the gates of Rafah, and I ask the Egyptian government, in the name of millions of people, open those gates and let the convoy through.”I wouldn't worry about this just yet. For starters, as you might recall, Galloway is persona non grata in Egypt. For seconds, what happened to the last flotilla may make boat owners and crews a bit hesitant to use their boats for this sort of thing.
With Hizbullah and Turkish flags waving in the background, Galloway claimed that the convoy will be the “mightiest breach” of the siege that has ever been.
“The sea convoy will simultaneously leave on the same day, sail from country to country around the Mediterranean,” he said. “We will arrive off Gaza together. We will enter together with the mightiest breach of the siege there has ever been, and we will end this siege that day.”
Galloway added that the UN Security Council and the Arab league would be unable to end the siege.
“This siege in now shaking, the wall is now tottering, we have to break it down ourselves,” he told the crowd. “Viva, viva Palestina.”
Pointing in the direction of the Israeli Embassy,
Galloway accused Israel of being murderers and terrorists.
“Those nest of criminals in the Israeli Embassy, we don’t want these murderers, these terrorists in the heart of London. We don’t want our police protecting them, the police should be protecting us from them,” he said.
He also said that the flotilla incident will mark the beginning of the end of Israel.
“Just as Soweto began the countdown to the end of the racist apartheid State of South Africa, so the killing of our martyrs on Monday began the numbering of the days of the Zionist apartheid State of Israel, be sure about that,” he said.
“There can be no peace between truth and falsehood, there can be no peace between justice and oppression, there can be no peace between the occupier and the occupied, there can only be eternal struggle between them. There can only be eternal struggle until justice has prevailed and freedom has been won,” he added.

in the last election, the british people stated very clearly that this clown doesnt represent them
cant he be arrested for attempting to incite violent acts?
Thanks for the hat tip, Carl.
I wonder if he knows how to swim? ;)
In Australia, boat that attempt to illegally enter our waters are compensated. That costs the owners a lot of money. Unfortunately it does not stop them sending in ships.
George Galloway is a certifiable loon! Even the Brits had enough of him. Will he ever go away?
Heh
