KyrolAnz - MP British George Galloway
telah dipenuhi dengan pujian dan kritikan untuk ucapan yang diberikan dalam
Parlimen hari ini, di mana beliau dinyatakan kesnya terhadap campur tangan tentera
di Iraq.
Galloway kepada Ahli Parlimen bahawa strategi mereka
untuk mengalahkan militia jihad Negara Islam (juga dikenali sebagai ISIS, atau
Isil) adalah salah ber-kepala dan tindakan di Iraq akan merebak "lanjut dan
lebih mendalam di seluruh DUNIA, sama seperti [lepas] perang Iraq" .
"Tidak ada fundamentalisme Islam di Iraq
sebelum Blair . . . dan Encik Bush serang dan menduduki," katanya.
Galloway juga memberitahu Ahli Parlimen Negara Islam
tidak "menumpukan perhatian sebagai tentera" dan tidak "tidak
mempunyai asas", yang bererti bahawa serangan udara secara amnya akan
menjadi tidak berkesan. Beliau juga mengkritik pakatan UK bakal dengan
negara-negara lain di rantau itu seperti Arab Saudi.
"Kita mempunyai tentera khayalan, Saudi, UAE,
Qatar . . . mereka semua tentera khayalan. Mereka tidak memberitahu orang ramai
mereka sendiri mereka pada masthead! Adakah sesiapa pun yang melihat gambar
mereka, berperang di Syria? "
"Arab Saudi adalah sarang yang Isil dan ini ular lain telah
datang," katanya.
‘TOTALDisgrace’:
George Galloway blasted Over ISIS Comments Opposing UK AIRSTRIKES . . .
British MP George Galloway has been met with praise
and criticism for his speech given in Parliament today, where he set out his
case against military intervention in Iraq.
Galloway told MPs that their strategy to beat the
jihadist militia Islamic State (also known as ISIS, or ISIL) was wrong-headed
and that action in Iraq would spread “further and deeper around the world, just
like the [last] Iraq war”.
"There was no Islamist fundamentalism in Iraq
before Mr Blair. . . and Mr Bush invaded and occupied," he said.
Galloway also told MPs that Islamic State did not
“concentrate as an army” and did “not have bases”, meaning that airstrikes
would generally be ineffective. He also criticised a prospective UK alliance
with other nations in the region such as Saudi Arabia.
“We have imaginary armies, the Saudi, Emirati,
Qatari… they’re all imaginary armies. They haven’t even told their own people
they’re on the masthead! Has anyone even seen a picture of them, fighting in
Syria?”
“Saudi Arabia is the nest from which ISIL and
these other vipers have come,” he added.
Walau bagaimanapun, Bradford West MP dikritik
selepas beliau mencadangkan bahawa orang awam Iraq menyambut Negara Islam
daripada kemarahan di campur tangan tentera Barat.
"Itulah penduduk mendiamkan diri kerana dasar
pencerobohan Barat dan Barat," katanya kepada Commons, sambil menambah:
"Satu-satunya cara suatu kuasa yang berjaya saiz boleh memegang wilayah
mereka memegang adalah jika mereka mempunyai penduduk yang bertindak sebagai
air di mana mereka berenang."
MP Ian Austin (Buruh, Dudley Utara) dengan segera
dipanggil comments Galloway ini "seluruh kehinaan".
"Bagaimana orang akan terkejut mendengar dia
berkata wanita ditanam hidup-hidup, wanita sebagai hamba, adalah elektrik tidak
aktif dalam penganiayaan mereka dengan orang-orang ini!" Katanya.
Ucapan Galloway tlh disebut-sebut oleh beberapa
media sebagai 'paling kontro-versi' sepanjang perbahasan Iraq Jumaat, di mana
majoriti Ahli Parlimen British telah mengundi memihak kepada menjalankan
serangan udara di Iraq.
Dalam tally akhir, 543 Ahli Parlimen mengundi memihak kepada serangan
udara, manakala 43 Ahli Parlimen menentang usul kerajaan.
Awal bulan ini Ahli Parlimen telah diserang 'kejam' oleh seorang lelaki,
kononnya untuk pandangan anti-Israel itu.
Penyerang, yang mengatakan polis adalah seorang
lelaki berusia 39 tahun dan sejak itu tlh ditangkap, didakwa dipanggil MP
"Hitler" & juga melompat kepadanya.
Selain daripada tugas parlimennya, Galloway juga merupakan tuan rumah
program RT "Sputnik".
However, the Bradford West MP came under fire after he suggested that
Iraqi civilians welcomed Islamic State out of anger at western military
intervention.
"That population is quiescent because of
Western policies and Western invasion," he told the Commons, adding:
"The only way a force that size could successfully hold the territory they
hold is if they have a population acting as the water in which they are
swimming."
MP Ian Austin (Labour, Dudley North) immediately called Galloway’s
comments a“total disgrace”.
“How appalled people will be to hear him say women buried alive, women as
slaves, are quiescent in their persecution by these people!” he said.
Galloway’s speech has been touted by some media
outlets as the ‘most controversial’ throughout Friday’s Iraq debate, in which
the majority of British MPs have voted in favour of conducting air strikes in
Iraq.
In the final tally, 543 MPs voted in favour of air strikes, while 43 MPs
opposed the governments’ motion.
Earlier this month the MP was ‘brutally’ assaulted by a man, allegedly
for his anti- Israeli views.
The attacker, who police say was a 39-year-old man and has since been
arrested, allegedly called the MP “a Hitler” and also leapt on him.
Apart from his parliamentary duties, Galloway is also the host of RT’s
programme “Sputnik”.
