Hey "punishment beatings" were popular in Northern Irland (still are to an extent).

Difference is the N. Ireland government will prosecute those they catch. Hamas gives them rewards.

Come on hamas have thrown people off roofs and thats the best video you can find (with a slight odd cut as well)? Try liveleak.

Just trying to keep the really graphic stuff off this forum geni.

Zeuzzz, are you understanding what Hamas is all about yet? And the people like George Galloway who praise them?

Come now, don't be coy: what exactly do you mean by that question?

Are you a Zionist?

If not, do you share similar ideologies? Because thats the impression I have gotten so far. I may be mistaken, I dont frequent this section of the forum much.

I am on the anti-imperialist left." The Stalinist left? "I wouldn't define it that way because of the pejoratives loaded around it; that would be making a rod for your own back. If you are asking did I support the Soviet Union, yes I did. Yes, I did support the Soviet Union, and I think the disappearance of the Soviet Union is the biggest catastrophe of my life. If there was a Soviet Union today, we would not be having this conversation about plunging into a new war in the Middle East, and the US would not be rampaging around the globe.

He does not support Hamas in this sense, infact he has made it clear that he does not support many of Hamas' ideas and policies.

Absolute nonsense. This is part and parcel of Hamas, it is what they do.

[Godwin warning]

It's like saying you admire Hitler and think he is a great man because he gave Germany a great highway system. Oh, that other stuff you don't approve of but it's not important.

Do you live in Iran?

What a pathetic post.

Peoples nationality, unfortunately, I have found does make a major difference in discussions like this. Patriotism is a very influencial thought system responsible for the deaths of millions, probably just behind religous thought systems. I hate patriotism, personally. It was a round world last time I checked.
 
BTW, what was the nature of his "humanitarian" work with non other than Uday Hussein?

I've seen that word used in too many different ways to know what you mean by it. I do not describe myself as such. And why do you care? What does it matter? My statements stand or fall on their own, who I am is of no consequence.

Yes, you hate your country. Is this why you like George Galloway? He seems to share your contempt for your country (i assume your British).

He's well known for his critisism of capitalism. Look at where capitalism has gotten our economy today :eye-poppi And see how much influence the major corporations have over polotics. And although he is by no means an all out marxist or communist, he does often tend towards these type of political systems. But not the extreme ones, he is a big fan of letting the people decide and voting in govenments. This is where his political views become somewhat complex, as he prefers neither pure capitalism nor communism, but ideally an mixture of both. A political system where the rich - poor gap does not keep getting bigger and bigger is a point he continually makes.

Hate my country? I dont hate my country any more than I hate any part of the world. Its a place on Earth.

By "my country" do you mean the arbitrary location on the planet where my parents had sex and I was born?

I am british. And George does not hold contempt for his country; quite the opposite. He loves the people of the UK; its the UK poloticians and companies abusing their power that he dislikes. As do most of the british population.

He is a four times elected member of parliment. The british people voted for him. And continue to do so.

Bull****. He's an admirer of and appologist for all forms of totalitarianism, provided that they're anti-west. Listen to him deny the Tiananmen Square massacre:


he is a big fan of letting the people decide and voting in govenments.

Bull****. His pretensions towards democracy only arise in opposition to pro-western authoritarians or in support of anti-western opposition parties. He has no real commitment to democracy at all.
