This is the sort of thing that<br \/>\nhappens in Syria every day, except sometimes they even cut out the<br \/>\nheart and the liver of the deceased and eat it on video for the<br \/>\nentertainment of their brothers in the barracks afterwards. And<br \/>\nBritain is helping to pay for that sickening barbarism in Syria.<br \/>\nBut when it comes close to home, happens on our own streets by the<br \/>\nsame kind of people, these people influenced by the al-Qaeda<br \/>\nmindset are exactly the same kind of people that we are paying for,<br \/>\narming, giving all kinds of war material and agitating to give them<br \/>\nmore in Syria.<\/p>\n<p>So I simply ask David Cameron as I asked him before in<br \/>\nParliament if he would adumbrate the key differences between the<br \/>\nhand-chopping throat-cutting fanatics that we saw in Woolwich<br \/>\nyesterday and the hand-chopping throat-cutting fanatics we are<br \/>\ngiving money and weapons to in Syria.<\/p>\n<p><b>RT:<\/b> <i>Do you honestly believe pulling British troops out<br \/>\nof Afghanistan would stop these attacks?<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>GG:<\/b> Britain has been helping to radicalize these<br \/>\nextremist fanatics for a very long time with its support for Israel<br \/>\nand its crimes against the Palestinian people, with its<br \/>\nparticipation in US invasions and occupations of Muslim countries.<br \/>\nWe have spawned across the world maybe tens, maybe hundreds of<br \/>\nmillions of radicalized Muslims, fanaticized by the injustice and<br \/>\nthe double-standards of Western policy towards the Muslim world.<br \/>\nAnd all I see is that in a kind of grotesque double whammy we\u2019ve<br \/>\nnow added to that by reprising our policy in the 1980s of actually<br \/>\nhelping to build a Frankenstein monster in Syria. And the very same<br \/>\nraw material of radicalized fanaticized extremists is being used.<br \/>\nAnd It came back to hunt the United State, Spain and Britain and<br \/>\nmany places after the Afghan experience, when we built the first<br \/>\nFrankenstein monster.
