Galloway, Che and JFK

I’m not even slightly surprised that George Galloway would suggest that the same sinister imperialist forces which supposedly incapacitated Fidel Castro and killed Hugo Chavez also infected the late Tony Benn with Guillain–Barré syndrome.

What I find more interesting are two of the photos I noticed here in back of Galloway:

That’s right, Galloway apparently idolizes both Che Guevara and John F. Kennedy. The irony of this becomes apparent when you watch this video of JFK and Mrs. Kennedy addressing a 1962 rally in Miami honoring the veterans of the failed CIA-backed Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba:

Kennedy had his doubts about the invasion plan, but he never stopped loathing Fidel Castro or wanting to see his regime overthrown.
