George Galloway in Vancouver: Free Palestine, Free Afghanistan, Free Speech

The man who gave the US Senate a solid drubbing in 2005, former British MP George Galloway came to Vancouver during his cross-country tour of Canada on November 22 -- and he had a lot to say. In this talk he tackles his nemesis Jason Kenney -- the man who illegally banned him from entering Canada in 2009. He continues by lambasting the complicit Neo-Conservative government of Canada and he laments our diminishing reputation as "Peacekeeping Canadians" on the international stage. Mr. Galloway then explores the persistent hypocrisy of Israel and the West vs. Islam and the Middle East. (With specific emphasis on Afghanistan and Palestine.) He concludes by discussing Iran and Islamophobia.

You may agree or disagree with some of the things George Galloway has to say but you can't disagree with his intentions and the force of his convictions.

I think, I am not sure, that many people do not understand there are people on the so called left and the so called right that can actually agree on some subjects. To me where HUMAN RIGHTS are concerned there should be no left no right there should only be people who come together and stand up for human rights for all people. Only then can we call ourselves human and not just barbaric savages.

I think that most people, including myself, would agree with your comments. However, the "divide and conquer" strategy is an ancient, tried and true method long employed by repressive institutions (church, governments, elites, corporations, et al) in order to control and connive populations into doing what the institutions want -- in addition to keeping the people weak, confused and disorganized. The "left / right" political paradigm is the continuance of that methodology.

He doesn't support Dick Cheney, George Bush or Tony Bliar.

He makes me proud to be British! Love George, so knowledgable, so principled, passionate and kind. How did a neo-con gov get voted in power in Canada of all places??? So many fantastic people there!

@yington there's a difference between showing solidarity with Palestinian activists in Canada and interfering in other country's affairs, he's not lobbying anyone or any government official in Canada, neither is he advocating some kind of political revolution in Canada!! He's just demonstrating global support for Palestine and opposition against Western foreign policy, Islamophobia etc etc

Canadian PM Stephen Harper says 'Islamicism' is the main threat to his country. As a Westerner I really don't fear Muslims or Islam in the West, I instead fear the extremely right-wing 'defenders' of the West, or moreover the false defenders of Western values whose only motivation is not a commitment to liberty or equality, but a commitment to bigotry and segregation

Fact: Jason Kenney joined a rally in 2006 for a socialist Iranian group advocating the overthrow of the Iranian regime, but claims he "didn't know it was listed as a terrorist organization."

:)

Not only that he's a shameless vehement Zionist who even admitted he stopped all funding to human rights organizations who were arguing for the boycotting of Israel! THAT is the kind of scum-bag we're talking about.

Canada needs to get rid of that blood-lusting slimeball terrorist Jason Kenney!

The Zio-nazis seem to be particularly strong within the Canadian government - including the Jewish Defense League (which is listed around the world - inluding the US - as a terrorist organizatin and racial hate-group - evidenced by their attempted censorship of the honorable Mr. Galloway. Clearly, as he rightly pointed out, the Zionist owned and run press in Canada is entirely complicit (no surprises there).

Sadly Canada is in the Zionist shackles.
