From the BBC - Mowlam: We must talk to al-Qaeda:
Mo Mowlam has called on the British and American governments to open talks with Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda.You may be thinking, "Swell, when do we hear from Joe Grobnik?" but ole Mo (who is a woman) used to be the Northern Ireland secretary in the British government.
And she says she will use her new one woman show to criticise government policy on Iraq and the Middle East.She ought to check with Richard Clarke about book deals.
Here's the problem, Mo. Their first demand will be that you put a bag over your head. While most folks will be real easy with that, the second demand will be that we join their grand medieval delusion. That's going to be real difficult. And failing that, they want to kill us. All of us, including stupid fat hags. So shut your pie hole.
