I salute him." --John Pilger

Synopsis
A lively, rousing account from the Briton who took DC by storm. ""As a matter of fact, I have met Saddam Hussein exactly the same number oftimes as Donald Rumsfeld. The difference is Donald Rumsfeld met him to sell him guns and to give him maps the better to target those guns. I met him to try and bring about an end to sanctions, suffering, and war."--"George Galloway in the U.S. Senate, May 2005 In late spring of2005, George Galloway, a newly elected British member of Parliament, came to Washington, D.C., to appear before a Senate subcommittee that claimed--without ever talking to him--that he had enriched himself through the scandal-plagued Iraq oil-for-food program. What happened next was a rare political moment: to the surprise of the assembled senators, congressional aides, and press, Galloway turned the tables on his accusers, calling attention to the dishonesty and hypocrisy that led to the war in Iraq. This is the story of Galloway's relationship with Saddam Hussein (including details of their private meetings) and of his remarkable visit to Washington in which he dared to set the record straight--not just his own record, but also that of the U.S. government. Filled with the passion and wit that are Galloway trademarks, the book includes the complete transcript of the famed Senate testimony and is packed with facts about the U.S.'s ignominious history in Iraq--facts that are easy to forget but crucial to remember., In late spring of 2005, George Galloway, a newly elected member of British Parliament, came to Washington, D.C., to appear before a Senate subcommittee that claimed--without ever talking to him--that he had enriched himself through the scandal-plagued Iraq oil-for-food program.

- e***j (91)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseA rocky start after I had to NUDGE the Seller into checking on my order after MORE than a week with NOTHING happening... But Seller communication was GOOD and the item showed up, well packaged, within the delivery window. Item was well priced, and they had a series that I STRUGGLED to find elsewhere, in NEW condition. I would recommend this seller if you can't find it elsewhere, that's the best I can give them.Chillin' in Another World with Level 2 Super Cheat Powers (Manga) Vol. 1 (#305350494827)

This wasn’t passed along by the seller and they didn’t respond to my questions until over a week later. This was a bit frustrating, but the Bible’s were new as described. I’m not sure I would buy from this seller again. ThanksHoly Bible: From the Ancient Eastern Text: George M. Lamsa's Translation From... (#305936194328)
