Inspired by Michael Moore’s documentary Fahrenheit 9/11, exposing George W. Bush’s misdeeds and his war on terror, the Respect MP for Bradford West, UK, outspoken politician, George Galloway, has decided to produce a film titled The killing of Tony Blair.
The film project is, Galloway hopes, the first step in a campaign to get Tony Blair tried for war crimes in an international court. He acknowledged that the film’s title was chosen for “shock value,” but in response to claims it is in a bad taste, he said that Blair’s was a shocking story. His decision to go to war in Iraq led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of civilians. Galloway intends replicate Moore’s technique of ambushing unwilling interviewees by confronting Blair and other prominent New Labour figures.
This week Galloway and Greg Ward, the film’s co-director, will launch an online fundraising initiative to get members of the public to contribute toward the cost of producing the feature film. There is no doubt that the former Labour prime minister of Britain will be fully exposed in The killing of Tony Blair and we are in for some shocking news, hitherto not known to the members of the public. Until then let’s wait with our fingers crossed! Bravo Galloway! — S.H. Moulana, Riyadh
