British MP Storming Out: ‘I Don’t Debate with Israelis’ (Video)

The Israeli-British student said Galloway should be barred from the House of Commons. "He clearly had a problem not because I am Israeli - I'm sure he would have talked to an Israeli Arab, he didn't want to talk to me because I am an Israeli Jew," Aslan-Levy said.

    Gallowboy's cowardice and Anti-Semitism is vile, as his whole personna is vile. An ugly, pasty pansy boy who thought it made him look cool to his muslim groupies…too bad we don't have a new Kahane…gallow would be running all right..

    • Is "pansy" supposed to mean "gay?" Are you are a bigot? Yes, you are.

    • Michael D Blum Why is it a comment always becomes "biggoted or racist". If you can't handle comments try another channel. Nanette was only making a comment, she probably wouldn't correlate "pansy" with "gay"…takes a biggot to try that.

    • Nanette CohenRayman says:

      pansy only means a man with no "cojones"…i am not against you Michael and I did NOT mean gay….I meant: with no COJONES.

    • Nanette CohenRayman says:

      Christy: thank you and if you think about it, Michael doesn't seem to mind at all that Galloway hates Jews….he is probably a lover of Galloway….no matter…Thank you, Christy.

      You look Chineese or philipino to me lady and not from the M.E…

      Michael D Blum What's wrong with being a bigot. It's just a lefty word that has no real meaning.

    The hysterical man should be sent to a prayer session to be exorcised from his evil-spirited disposition rather than to any Parliament session.

  6. One of the tragedies of the current international economic meltdown is it brings out the worst in people. For those in Europe, it's a stunning reminder that they have learned nothing of the past. "Blame the Jews"was the mantra in 1930's and 1940's Europe and it produced horrid results. People like Mr.Galloway are tragic examples that they have learned nothing from the past. What would be far more productive is to get all fellow countrymen together Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, and everyone else together to work on a common problem, in this case the economy, in order to come up with viable solutions. By doing this it will help solve a problem, improve peoples lives, increase prosperity, and ultimately return to a better standard of living. More importantly, it will show Jewish people don't have horns on their head or didn't drink the blood of Jesus, they are regular people who struggle just like everybody else. In addition, it will show Jews can be a source of solving problems and are not not the cause of problems. I will be writing Mr.Galloway and his letter will not be quite as diplomatic as this one.

  7. Gallowboy was out witted and he knew it. Shallow solipsistic people always run when confronted with a mirror of themselves. Hurrah for Israel.

    • Djilali Abed says:

      You must be dreaming lady ! G Galloway is a very smart man he can sense the conn from affar.He was set up by the School but he tuned the table arround.GG is very famous but that guy is no one.

    • John Hurren says:

      Christy, you've nailed it! He was too scared to face real debate.

  8. “He clearly had a problem not because I am Israeli – I’m sure he would have talked to an Israeli Arab, he didn’t want to talk to me because I am an Israeli Jew,”.

    That about sums it up.

    Obviously he envisioned himself loosing the debate, no politician would EVER walk away from a debate they expected to win.

  9. Alan Kardon says:

    Galloway proved how totally incompetent he is. Glad he does not live in my country. I would personally debate him back to under the rock he crawled out from under.

  10. Djilali Abed says:

    GGalloway is a smart and independant men.Talking to a land grabber is like talking to a looter, Criminal or a terorist.Just because some idiot Arabs recognised that entity it has put the rest of us in front of the fait accompli and changed all the realities on the ground geographical or historical.The entity appartheid became a state and the historical palestine was wipped of the map.So when somebody outspoken like Galloway sit with this terorist it is like safocating the cause of Palestine -which belong to Jewish, Christian and Muslims-and giving oxygen to a zionist.No one has the right to negotiate on behalf of the palestinians and the eastern european Jewish Russians or else have to negotiate with the Palestians including Jewish and Christians.And frankly the Guy is British and he does not sound middleeastern. Wake up people.

    • John Hurren says:

      ".Talking to a land grabber "???
      Israel belongs to the Jewish People…G-d says so as well as the Balfour Declaration.

  11. Mr. Galloway's policy is simply this "I only debate with people who agree with me, that way I am always right".

And by the way, her being perceived as anti-Israel is really kinda good for the Jews, right?
