    Galloway takes on US oil accusers



    Galloway's testimony
    British MP George Galloway has told US senators who accused him of profiting from Iraq oil dealings their claims were the "mother of all smokescreens".
    In a combative performance before a Senate committee, the Respect Coalition MP accused the US lawmakers of being "cavalier" with justice.

    He said: "I am not now nor have I ever been an oil trader and neither has anyone on my behalf."

    The senators say he was given credits to buy Iraqi oil by Saddam Hussein.

    Mr Galloway travelled to Washington to clear his name before the Senate sub-committee on investigations.

    He claims the evidence against him is false. He says forged documents had been used to make claims about him before.

    Mr Galloway went on the offensive from the start of his testimony, saying the committee had "traduced" his name around the world without asking him a single question.

    He told committee chairman Senator Norm Coleman: "I know that standards have slipped over the last few years in Washington but for a lawyer you are remarkably cavalier with any idea of justice."

    Sanctions busters?

    Mr Galloway said he had met Saddam Hussein on two occasions - the same number of times as US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld!!!!!
