I'm asking you very warm welcome to my
colleague and friend George Galloway
[Music]
[Applause]
your introduction and my presence of
sheriff's and Andrew I honestly didn't
know whether to laugh or cry though
tribe was the most likely outcome it is
surreal to hear collected in this way
everything that we in the anti-war
movement predicted 13 years ago almost
to a tee Mr Blair likes now to say that
he has been surprised by the subsequent
course of events but that's just another
life because he heard it from millions
even when they didn't know what they
know now that there were no weapons of
mass destruction that the entire thing
was a tower Elias I but he had that
face-to-face man-to-man from the outside
the gentleman's lavatory in the library
corridor of the House of Commons ending
precisely I told him that the fall of
Baghdad would not be the beginning of
the end but just the end of the
beginning I told him there were no
al-qaeda in Iraq but yet he and Bush
invaded there will be hundreds of
thousands of al-qaeda in Iraq that be
extremists would descend like sports on
the wounds that he and Bush were ready
to open I told them that if you invade
and occupy Iraq with hundreds of
thousands of
some soldiers in George Bush's crusade
extremism world cascades all over the
world even I said in our own country
more than two years before it did on 7 7
2005 I talked about this Hydra at this
point Alastair Campbell about whom or
later pulled him away because it was
threatening to get physical so it is
surreal to me to hear you and Andrew and
Seamus I don't bring the theatres of
conflict and I I won't repeat most of
them but she will said that or you did
Jeremy welcome to this very secure
building well we know so it is a very
secure building if it is it is one of
the few in this country that can be so
described as a very secure building I
want to talk about our prediction that
if you make war against Muslims abroad
you will end up at war with Muslims at
home nothing could be more certain if
you got the air full of hatred of
Muslims Muslim League of Muslim
countries Rhodes terrorists do you
expect the tabloid media and other
sections of the media give set the right
the racists to make a distinction
between that Muslim over there and the
one who pray in the mosque or my sleep
or Luann's a shop or a restaurant and
just around the corner from me what kind
of level of consciousness
do you imagine existence that if you
given us it landed its various leaders
the extent that you are doing you are
suing dragon's teeth and you will reap
the whirlwind and we haven't yet not
since 2005 but I can tell you it's not a
state secret and if it is I'm going to
tell you anyway but the head of the
British security services but an attack
in Britain is and I put him virtually
inevitable now he may not have meant it
quite so strongly he did have a price
tag at the end asking for more money and
more resources but if it is virtually
inevitable that means it's almost
certain to happen I told you it's
virtually inevitable when you go out
there that you want to be knocked down
by a bus you wouldn't cross the road so
we must assume that he's telling the
truth
and that some kind of variant of these
pallets atrocities is coming our way
which of course will add yet another
twist yet more hatred get more bigotry
get more recruits for the extremists and
be fanatics so the wars that you are
describing and discussing this evening
have to include the war at home it turns
out that we have the opposite of what we
need we need smart better intelligence
but we have holes it would appear in
charge of our security I just let the
Guardian tonight that GG HQ has been
building hoovering up the emails of the
journalists on the BBC The Guardian The
Daily Mail the Sun Reuters NBC ABC did
they think that there might be some
jihadists working for the
well is this the use to which they're
putting the money and resources that
they have they're spending billions we
don't normally because it's a state
secret it's no reveal but they couldn't
keep track of the two fantastic models
who decapitated lyrically in broad
daylight in a South London Street they
have again I often start state secret
they have for the first time in British
history dispersed the ACS across the
country no longer based in one place
telephone but dispersed around the
country because we believe that this
attack Mumbai
style attack when it comes will take
place in what they call the provinces
rather than in London and they need to
have ACS soldiers three by four a good
reaction so this is a pretty disastrous
situation that we face and it is all of
course I'm not excavating the acts of
mother earth who should be imprisoned
for 99 years the people who kill
drinking but that doesn't thing we can
afford telling the truth as I thought
William a catalyst in this day building
I told will you made these two people
who killed that soldier in South London
if they've gone to Syria instead you
will have paid their airfare you would
have bought on the night our policy of
supporting from the 1980s until now this
day he was comments just on us we are
going to be training moderate Islamists
in Syria and hoping they don't defect to
our garden or Isis
as soon as we have trimmed them like all
the weapons we gave which were
immediately stolen by Isis and al-qaeda
our policy of building these
Frankenstein monsters around world is
true that they haven't read the novel
Frankenstein to the end for if they had
they would know that once you built it
it's out of your control that's why it's
called the monster once you've created
it it will do whatever it likes and
that's exactly what has been happening
for habit in France so happened in
Belgium and if these security services
here are actually believed it's
virtually inevitable that it's going to
happen here one last point before I go
to the Drummond room journey somebody
asked me to be in an interview what do
we use to stop this radicalization
should we ban what's up should we stop
these preachers preachers of hate in
tabloids feet should organisations like
his battalion dollars be proscribed
I took the interview the only thing
necessary to radicalize a Muslim in
Britain today is the ability to watch
the television
last summer everybody including the 2
million Muslims watch not just the
slaughter of 2160 Palestinians struck in
the Gaza Strip five hundred of them
children the majority of the women and
children with nowhere to run and nowhere
to hide not only did they have
once that happened they had to watch our
government supporting the mongrels they
have to watch our government supporting
those carrying out the slaughter as this
is the French and Muslims everywhere
cranking what is remarkable is there are
so few fanatics so few extremists not
that there are so many so Seamus is
right and who is right what is to be
done the opposite of what we're doing
it's not rocket science we should do
nothing else and reverse that which we
are doing on the principle that when
you're in a hole stop digging we should
stop supporting the mother earth in Gaza
and start supporting the victims of the
mother earth in dozen we should stop a
baby and falsified 20 muslim country
after another and subvert in one muslim
country after another back in the
extremists in Syria supporting the
military junta and Egypt and so on we
should stop it and let the people of
those countries decide their own teacher
stopped propping up these rotten corrupt
dictators who rule the Muslim world
almost without exception from one end to
the other Saudi Arabia which was in
front of the march in Paris valuing the
Saudi ambassador was marching for press
freedom and he in fact interfering with
that they were lashing with a whip in
public fifty times for the next twenty
weeks someone who no longer criticizing
not Islam not a prophet criticizing the
product appointees in the religious
establishment who are nearly
Stooges of the doctor said of run Sunday
River Saudi Arabia is our best friend we
are never done trying to sell them more
weapons we are never done trying to send
them more trainers when the invasion of
neighbor Bahrain we support it so
seriously can any Muslim take our
protestations of being in favor freedom
absolutely freedom of speech
where our best friend is the dungeon of
the region and the unfreeze country on
the other thank you very much
[Applause]
