And it seems you're not supposed to *repeat* these things if they have been said. I have been impressed by the extent to which the US media have quashed this story -- I've seen minimal coverage on TV and in print. E.g., check Slate's "summary of what's in the major U.S. newspapers" today -- not a word about Galloway's Senate testimony: <http://slate.msn.com/id/2119050/>
