GEORGE GALLOWAY, WHO INSISTS THAT he has never seen a barrel of oil, has announced "George Galloway: The American Tour," coming up later this summer, according to Chrenkoff. One can hardly fault a guy for striking while the iron is hot.

By way of a primer, I thought it would a valuable public service to highlight some of the things he might say, as catalogued by The London Street.

In his memoirs, Galloway says that the day the Soviet Union collapsed was "the saddest day" of his life.

Galloway says the only terrorism in the world today comes from the United States, not from organizations such as al Qaeda or the remnants of the Iraqi Baath party.

London Street also has some info on Galloway's "coalition."

Under its umbrella march such traditional former archenemies as Stalinists and Trotskyites. But the coalition's biggest success is the alliance that it has forged between the extreme Left and militant Islamist groups.

A coalition, by the way, that includes such esteemable members as Carlos "The Jackal."

Carlos says Islam is the only force capable of persuading large numbers of people to become "volunteers" for suicide attacks against the U.S. "Only a coalition of Marxists and Islamists can destroy the US," he says.

A coalition of Marxists and Islamists he says. While the Middle East certainly has the Islamists covered, it looks more and more like the U.S. itself is providing the Marxists.
