1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,930
I'm asking you very warm welcome to my

2
00:00:02,399 --> 00:00:07,020
colleague and friend George Galloway

3
00:00:04,930 --> 00:00:11,480
[Music]

4
00:00:07,020 --> 00:00:15,210
[Applause]

5
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:19,920
your introduction and my presence of

6
00:00:15,210 --> 00:00:22,920
sheriff's and Andrew I honestly didn't

7
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:28,760
know whether to laugh or cry though

8
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:34,280
tribe was the most likely outcome it is

9
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:37,140
surreal to hear collected in this way

10
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:41,570
everything that we in the anti-war

11
00:00:37,140 --> 00:00:48,030
movement predicted 13 years ago almost

12
00:00:41,570 --> 00:00:52,579
to a tee Mr Blair likes now to say that

13
00:00:48,030 --> 00:00:56,280
he has been surprised by the subsequent

14
00:00:52,579 --> 00:01:02,690
course of events but that's just another

15
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:05,460
life because he heard it from millions

16
00:01:02,690 --> 00:01:08,700
even when they didn't know what they

17
00:01:05,460 --> 00:01:10,619
know now that there were no weapons of

18
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:14,820
mass destruction that the entire thing

19
00:01:10,619 --> 00:01:17,280
was a tower Elias I but he had that

20
00:01:14,820 --> 00:01:19,890
face-to-face man-to-man from the outside

21
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:22,799
the gentleman's lavatory in the library

22
00:01:19,890 --> 00:01:29,310
corridor of the House of Commons ending

23
00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:31,590
precisely I told him that the fall of

24
00:01:29,310 --> 00:01:33,390
Baghdad would not be the beginning of

25
00:01:31,590 --> 00:01:36,360
the end but just the end of the

26
00:01:33,390 --> 00:01:40,170
beginning I told him there were no

27
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:42,689
al-qaeda in Iraq but yet he and Bush

28
00:01:40,170 --> 00:01:47,090
invaded there will be hundreds of

29
00:01:42,689 --> 00:01:51,619
thousands of al-qaeda in Iraq that be

30
00:01:47,090 --> 00:01:55,470
extremists would descend like sports on

31
00:01:51,619 --> 00:01:59,159
the wounds that he and Bush were ready

32
00:01:55,470 --> 00:02:01,860
to open I told them that if you invade

33
00:01:59,159 --> 00:02:02,900
and occupy Iraq with hundreds of

34
00:02:01,860 --> 00:02:06,850
thousands of

35
00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:10,010
some soldiers in George Bush's crusade

36
00:02:06,850 --> 00:02:15,040
extremism world cascades all over the

37
00:02:10,010 --> 00:02:21,490
world even I said in our own country

38
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:25,160
more than two years before it did on 7 7

39
00:02:21,490 --> 00:02:28,670
2005 I talked about this Hydra at this

40
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:31,490
point Alastair Campbell about whom or

41
00:02:28,670 --> 00:02:36,020
later pulled him away because it was

42
00:02:31,490 --> 00:02:41,090
threatening to get physical so it is

43
00:02:36,020 --> 00:02:44,870
surreal to me to hear you and Andrew and

44
00:02:41,090 --> 00:02:50,150
Seamus I don't bring the theatres of

45
00:02:44,870 --> 00:02:55,540
conflict and I I won't repeat most of

46
00:02:50,150 --> 00:02:58,850
them but she will said that or you did

47
00:02:55,540 --> 00:03:04,550
Jeremy welcome to this very secure

48
00:02:58,850 --> 00:03:06,890
building well we know so it is a very

49
00:03:04,550 --> 00:03:09,860
secure building if it is it is one of

50
00:03:06,890 --> 00:03:12,830
the few in this country that can be so

51
00:03:09,860 --> 00:03:16,670
described as a very secure building I

52
00:03:12,830 --> 00:03:19,280
want to talk about our prediction that

53
00:03:16,670 --> 00:03:22,700
if you make war against Muslims abroad

54
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:26,390
you will end up at war with Muslims at

55
00:03:22,700 --> 00:03:29,900
home nothing could be more certain if

56
00:03:26,390 --> 00:03:32,270
you got the air full of hatred of

57
00:03:29,900 --> 00:03:35,570
Muslims Muslim League of Muslim

58
00:03:32,270 --> 00:03:40,090
countries Rhodes terrorists do you

59
00:03:35,570 --> 00:03:44,590
expect the tabloid media and other

60
00:03:40,090 --> 00:03:48,860
sections of the media give set the right

61
00:03:44,590 --> 00:03:54,170
the racists to make a distinction

62
00:03:48,860 --> 00:03:57,410
between that Muslim over there and the

63
00:03:54,170 --> 00:04:01,580
one who pray in the mosque or my sleep

64
00:03:57,410 --> 00:04:05,300
or Luann's a shop or a restaurant and

65
00:04:01,580 --> 00:04:07,070
just around the corner from me what kind

66
00:04:05,300 --> 00:04:09,920
of level of consciousness

67
00:04:07,070 --> 00:04:15,080
do you imagine existence that if you

68
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:18,260
given us it landed its various leaders

69
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:22,880
the extent that you are doing you are

70
00:04:18,260 --> 00:04:26,060
suing dragon's teeth and you will reap

71
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:31,700
the whirlwind and we haven't yet not

72
00:04:26,060 --> 00:04:35,300
since 2005 but I can tell you it's not a

73
00:04:31,700 --> 00:04:38,600
state secret and if it is I'm going to

74
00:04:35,300 --> 00:04:41,600
tell you anyway but the head of the

75
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:45,590
British security services but an attack

76
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:50,360
in Britain is and I put him virtually

77
00:04:45,590 --> 00:04:52,940
inevitable now he may not have meant it

78
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:55,310
quite so strongly he did have a price

79
00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:58,910
tag at the end asking for more money and

80
00:04:55,310 --> 00:05:01,040
more resources but if it is virtually

81
00:04:58,910 --> 00:05:04,730
inevitable that means it's almost

82
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:06,350
certain to happen I told you it's

83
00:05:04,730 --> 00:05:07,940
virtually inevitable when you go out

84
00:05:06,350 --> 00:05:11,810
there that you want to be knocked down

85
00:05:07,940 --> 00:05:13,340
by a bus you wouldn't cross the road so

86
00:05:11,810 --> 00:05:13,610
we must assume that he's telling the

87
00:05:13,340 --> 00:05:16,940
truth

88
00:05:13,610 --> 00:05:21,850
and that some kind of variant of these

89
00:05:16,940 --> 00:05:24,230
pallets atrocities is coming our way

90
00:05:21,850 --> 00:05:29,000
which of course will add yet another

91
00:05:24,230 --> 00:05:33,970
twist yet more hatred get more bigotry

92
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:39,860
get more recruits for the extremists and

93
00:05:33,970 --> 00:05:41,810
be fanatics so the wars that you are

94
00:05:39,860 --> 00:05:47,780
describing and discussing this evening

95
00:05:41,810 --> 00:05:51,650
have to include the war at home it turns

96
00:05:47,780 --> 00:05:57,550
out that we have the opposite of what we

97
00:05:51,650 --> 00:06:01,090
need we need smart better intelligence

98
00:05:57,550 --> 00:06:04,669
but we have holes it would appear in

99
00:06:01,090 --> 00:06:10,460
charge of our security I just let the

100
00:06:04,669 --> 00:06:15,140
Guardian tonight that GG HQ has been

101
00:06:10,460 --> 00:06:18,050
building hoovering up the emails of the

102
00:06:15,140 --> 00:06:24,050
journalists on the BBC The Guardian The

103
00:06:18,050 --> 00:06:26,240
Daily Mail the Sun Reuters NBC ABC did

104
00:06:24,050 --> 00:06:28,639
they think that there might be some

105
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:32,870
jihadists working for the

106
00:06:28,639 --> 00:06:35,300
well is this the use to which they're

107
00:06:32,870 --> 00:06:39,949
putting the money and resources that

108
00:06:35,300 --> 00:06:41,930
they have they're spending billions we

109
00:06:39,949 --> 00:06:47,990
don't normally because it's a state

110
00:06:41,930 --> 00:06:52,479
secret it's no reveal but they couldn't

111
00:06:47,990 --> 00:06:57,319
keep track of the two fantastic models

112
00:06:52,479 --> 00:07:01,520
who decapitated lyrically in broad

113
00:06:57,319 --> 00:07:04,430
daylight in a South London Street they

114
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:07,159
have again I often start state secret

115
00:07:04,430 --> 00:07:12,710
they have for the first time in British

116
00:07:07,159 --> 00:07:15,229
history dispersed the ACS across the

117
00:07:12,710 --> 00:07:17,930
country no longer based in one place

118
00:07:15,229 --> 00:07:21,080
telephone but dispersed around the

119
00:07:17,930 --> 00:07:22,520
country because we believe that this

120
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,129
attack Mumbai

121
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:27,469
style attack when it comes will take

122
00:07:25,129 --> 00:07:32,360
place in what they call the provinces

123
00:07:27,469 --> 00:07:37,219
rather than in London and they need to

124
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:40,479
have ACS soldiers three by four a good

125
00:07:37,219 --> 00:07:47,210
reaction so this is a pretty disastrous

126
00:07:40,479 --> 00:07:50,089
situation that we face and it is all of

127
00:07:47,210 --> 00:07:53,509
course I'm not excavating the acts of

128
00:07:50,089 --> 00:07:57,379
mother earth who should be imprisoned

129
00:07:53,509 --> 00:08:00,589
for 99 years the people who kill

130
00:07:57,379 --> 00:08:02,389
drinking but that doesn't thing we can

131
00:08:00,589 --> 00:08:04,879
afford telling the truth as I thought

132
00:08:02,389 --> 00:08:08,719
William a catalyst in this day building

133
00:08:04,879 --> 00:08:11,479
I told will you made these two people

134
00:08:08,719 --> 00:08:14,899
who killed that soldier in South London

135
00:08:11,479 --> 00:08:17,839
if they've gone to Syria instead you

136
00:08:14,899 --> 00:08:21,279
will have paid their airfare you would

137
00:08:17,839 --> 00:08:25,879
have bought on the night our policy of

138
00:08:21,279 --> 00:08:29,569
supporting from the 1980s until now this

139
00:08:25,879 --> 00:08:34,010
day he was comments just on us we are

140
00:08:29,569 --> 00:08:37,969
going to be training moderate Islamists

141
00:08:34,010 --> 00:08:40,310
in Syria and hoping they don't defect to

142
00:08:37,969 --> 00:08:42,800
our garden or Isis

143
00:08:40,310 --> 00:08:45,350
as soon as we have trimmed them like all

144
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:49,690
the weapons we gave which were

145
00:08:45,350 --> 00:08:53,180
immediately stolen by Isis and al-qaeda

146
00:08:49,690 --> 00:08:57,100
our policy of building these

147
00:08:53,180 --> 00:09:00,560
Frankenstein monsters around world is

148
00:08:57,100 --> 00:09:04,160
true that they haven't read the novel

149
00:09:00,560 --> 00:09:08,980
Frankenstein to the end for if they had

150
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:13,640
they would know that once you built it

151
00:09:08,980 --> 00:09:16,460
it's out of your control that's why it's

152
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:21,500
called the monster once you've created

153
00:09:16,460 --> 00:09:23,900
it it will do whatever it likes and

154
00:09:21,500 --> 00:09:27,200
that's exactly what has been happening

155
00:09:23,900 --> 00:09:29,900
for habit in France so happened in

156
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:33,410
Belgium and if these security services

157
00:09:29,900 --> 00:09:36,290
here are actually believed it's

158
00:09:33,410 --> 00:09:40,700
virtually inevitable that it's going to

159
00:09:36,290 --> 00:09:44,750
happen here one last point before I go

160
00:09:40,700 --> 00:09:48,589
to the Drummond room journey somebody

161
00:09:44,750 --> 00:09:51,730
asked me to be in an interview what do

162
00:09:48,589 --> 00:09:59,180
we use to stop this radicalization

163
00:09:51,730 --> 00:10:04,839
should we ban what's up should we stop

164
00:09:59,180 --> 00:10:09,200
these preachers preachers of hate in

165
00:10:04,839 --> 00:10:12,980
tabloids feet should organisations like

166
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:17,210
his battalion dollars be proscribed

167
00:10:12,980 --> 00:10:21,580
I took the interview the only thing

168
00:10:17,210 --> 00:10:24,050
necessary to radicalize a Muslim in

169
00:10:21,580 --> 00:10:25,480
Britain today is the ability to watch

170
00:10:24,050 --> 00:10:30,589
the television

171
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:33,650
last summer everybody including the 2

172
00:10:30,589 --> 00:10:39,380
million Muslims watch not just the

173
00:10:33,650 --> 00:10:43,370
slaughter of 2160 Palestinians struck in

174
00:10:39,380 --> 00:10:46,670
the Gaza Strip five hundred of them

175
00:10:43,370 --> 00:10:49,250
children the majority of the women and

176
00:10:46,670 --> 00:10:51,490
children with nowhere to run and nowhere

177
00:10:49,250 --> 00:10:54,279
to hide not only did they have

178
00:10:51,490 --> 00:10:57,550
once that happened they had to watch our

179
00:10:54,279 --> 00:10:59,800
government supporting the mongrels they

180
00:10:57,550 --> 00:11:02,380
have to watch our government supporting

181
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:06,930
those carrying out the slaughter as this

182
00:11:02,380 --> 00:11:09,910
is the French and Muslims everywhere

183
00:11:06,930 --> 00:11:14,730
cranking what is remarkable is there are

184
00:11:09,910 --> 00:11:19,330
so few fanatics so few extremists not

185
00:11:14,730 --> 00:11:23,230
that there are so many so Seamus is

186
00:11:19,330 --> 00:11:26,440
