Show Him the Way to the Gallows

British Parliament member George Galloway has once again thrown his support behind Islamic terrorists, while showing his hatred for the US and Israel.
British Member of Parliament George Galloway has described Jerusalem as being “raped” by foreigners, in a series of speeches delivered on Arab television.Galloway is leader of the Respect Party, an anti-Iraq war political party based on an alliance between Britain’s Socialist Workers Party and the British branch of the Muslim Brotherhood.The broadcasts, which were translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute, will likely present a challenge to British prime minister Tony Blair, who has vowed to crack down on overt incitement to terrorism in Britain and abroad. Galloway said that Jerusalem and Baghdad were “crying out for help,” before praising Iraqi jihad fighters, saying they were “defending the whole Arab world.”Two of your beautiful daughters are in the hands of foreigners – Jerusalem and Baghdad,” Galloway said on Syrian television. “The foreigners are doing to your daughters as they will. The daughters are crying for help, and the Arab world is silent. And some of them are collaborating with the rape of these two beautiful Arab daughters. Why? Because they are too weak and too corrupt to do anything about it.”

Regarding the “rape” of Jerusalem, if there are any “rapists” here, they are the Muslims. The Jews have always had a very special relationship with Jerusalem. Jerusalem is mentioned countless times in our Torah and prayers. We mourn the destruction of Jerusalem of thousands of years ago to this very day. In fact, many Jewish laws are only applicable to Jerusalem. She clearly has a special and exalted status in our religion and national consciousness.
In contrast, Jerusalem is not mentioned once in the Quran. Jerusalem never served as a cultural center for Islam, and Mohammed never even set foot there. Moslems pray in the direction of Mecca, with their backs to Jerusalem.
But all of this does not matter to the likes of Galloway. At least part of his motivation seems to be hatred of Israelis (and likely Jews, in general). How else do you explain this:
“This started out as a wish to terrorize the world with American power, or as Sharon would say: Terrrrrrorize,” said Galloway, attempting to imitate an Israeli accent.
