BBC USES GEORGE GALLOWAY TO CALL FOR REMOVAL OF GADDAFI

Of all people who could have been used to call for the removal of Gaddafi, I did not expect the BBC, i.e. MI5, to use George Galloway.

Galloway has been very vocal and active against US, UK and Israeli policies in Gaza and the West Bank and in the Arab world in general, and so has been the subject of several media operations to discredit him. Two classic examples are the clip of him apparently praising Saddam Hussein (he was actually praising the Iraqi people as a whole and not Saddam as an individual) and his appearance on Celebrity Big Brother during which he wore a cat suit and pretended to be a cat licking milk from the lap of Rula Lenska (he gave his fee to a Palestinian charity).

So when I heard Galloway was in the BBC studios yesterday morning I thought he was going to denounce the proposed invasion of Libya. He did. But he also appeared to call for the swift execution of Gaddafi too.

Galloway first denounced the proposed invasion of Libya, and the imposition of a no fly zone, referring to the absence of a no fly zone during Operation Cast Lead, and attacked the proposed invasion as aristocratic imperialism.

But Galloway also went on to call Gaddafi a brute, mocked Gaddafi's son as "flashy loadsamoney Saif", and finished by expressing his wish that Gaddafi should be hanged from a lamppost.

And just to make sure the message that Galloway was calling for the swift execution of Gaddafi got through, the end of the interview of Galloway was replayed at the end of Your Call by Nicky Campbell.

Is this a sign of desperation?

Listen to the interview yourself, which starts at about 2 hours 5 minutes into the show.
