*** raden-mas-ngabehi George Galloway ***
Si Oom ini ... tadinya adalah anggota parlemen Inggris dari partai "buruh"-nya Tony Blair; tapi haluannya dipandang terlalu "kiri" bagi partai "buruh"nya Tony Blair < partai "buruh" nya pak-de Blair ini seringkali bahkan nampak lebih "kanan/konservatif" dibandingkan dengan partai konservatif-nya Inggris yang "asli" :) ==> Partai "Buruh" UK = "Buruh" nya Bush & B.a.n.i ISROIL? :) > setelah invasi Amerika-Inggris di tahun 2003, Galloway mem'berontak' dan mengecam habis partai "buruh" yang dia sebut sebagai "mesin penipuan" ciptaannya Tony Blair, akibatnya dia di usir dari partai "buruh" - lalu mengajak koalisi kelompok-2 "kiri" di UK, mendirikan partai sendiri yang dinamakan RESPECT - The Unity Coalition. Melalui partai inilah setelah Pemilu 2005 den-baguse Galloway dapat menduduki lagi kursi di Parlemen Inggris. b.e.t.a pertama kali lihat wajah den-mase ini waktu dia di-'panggil' untuk menjadi 'saksi' pada sidang sebuah komite Senat US di Washington yang memeriksa keterlibatan bbrp. 'oknum' amerika di dalam kasus KKN program 'Oil for Food' nya PBB di Irak. Alih-alih menjalankan perannya sebagai 'saksi', Galloway menggunakan kesempatan langka ini ( adalah langka seorang anggota parlemen Inggris mendapat "kehormatan" untuk berbicara di depan komite Senat USA ) untuk mengecam habis-habisan policy US & UK terhadap Irak sejak perang teluk II 1991 hingga perang teluk III 2003. *** Pada wawancara dengan Sky-News di bawah ini Galloway mengecam habis sikap hipokrit & moral ganda pihak barat di dalam menghandle konflik Israel-Lebanon-Palestina. Di bawah nya saya sisipkan tautan & sedikit uraian tentang 'biografi' Oom Galloway dari sumber Wikipedia. ----( IM )--------------------- wawancara Galloway dengan Sky-News tentang konflik Israel-Lebanon-Palestina <http://news.sky.com/skynews/video/videoplayer/0,,31200- galloway_060806,00.html> *** Uraian biografi Galloway: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Galloway> --------------- George Galloway --------------- George Galloway, MP (born 16 August 1954) is a British politician noted for his socialist views and rhetorical style. He is currently the Respect Party Member of Parliament (MP) for Bethnal Green and Bow, and was previously elected as a Labour Party MP for Glasgow Hillhead and Glasgow Kelvin. Galloway is perhaps best known for his vigorous campaign to overturn economic sanctions against Iraq, and for his visits to Saddam Hussein in 1994 and 2002. In October 2003, he was expelled from the Labour Party when a party body ruled that he had brought the party into disrepute over the 2003 invasion of Iraq, when he called the Labour government "Tony Blair's lie machine" [1], and stated that British soldiers should "refuse to obey illegal orders." [2] In January 2004, he teamed up with the Socialist Workers Party, leading members of anti-war movements such as Salma Yaqoob, and other figures on the British left such as film-maker Ken Loach and journalist George Monbiot (who later left), to form RESPECT The Unity Coalition (Respect), a new political party to the left of Labour. He won his seat in the 2005 general election, standing for his new party. In January 2006 he sparked controversy for taking part in the television series Celebrity Big Brother. *************************************************************************** Berdikusi dg Santun & Elegan, dg Semangat Persahabatan.
