Nothing that I don't think any of us didn't already know.... But kinda odd seeing it so openly discussed.

Also, article has some good no nonsense statements.... Here is my favorite... "the US has stirred up a vast amount of hatred against itself by this swaggering arrogance of the intellectually limited President, roaring like a bull in a bomber jacket.."

JEDDAH, 26 March 2003 - In an exclusive interview with Arab News yesterday, British Member of Parliament George Galloway said he had evidence that one motive for the war on Iraq is the eventual partition of the Mideast.

"Here in the Houses of Parliament there are people who have never set foot in an Arab country openly discussing the partition of Gulf states," he said in a telephone interview from London.

"They talk about whether it should be one country, two countries, three countries, even four countries. They openly discuss changing the boundaries of old countries, creating new countries - removing this and that leader," he added.

Speaking about George W. Bush, Galloway said that he was unimpressive. However, "the US has stirred up a vast amount of hatred against itself by this swaggering arrogance of the intellectually limited President, roaring like a bull in a bomber jacket in aircraft hangars to young men and women of the American armed forces who, although they know very little of the world, are ready to get out there and kill."
