Untrue Anti-Tatchell Smears Rebutted

A statement by friends of Peter Tatchell, written in co-operation with him asserting that the defamatory smears made against him in this thread are untrue.

FRIENDS OF PETER TATCHELL WRITE:

Smear campaign against Peter Tatchell

Wild, unfounded allegations have been made against Peter Tatchell by Karl
Khan / Stelios. These allegations are his spin on Tatchell. They are not
true. They are being made by a person who is a member of George Galloway's Respect Party, which is hostile to Tatchell and Tatchell's party, the Greens.

These attacks by Karl / Stelios look like a sectarian campaign to gain
advantage for Respect by smearing Peter Tatchell and the Green Party.

We would advise people to go to Tatchell's website:

" http://www.petertatchell.net"

Please read Tatchell in his own words. Thousands of his articles, speeches
and news releases are archived there. None support the Iraq war or an attack on Iran. None back the neo cons. None are racist or Islamophobic. None support Zionism. These allegations are all fiction. But if you don't believe us, go to Tatchell's website and read for yourself.

You can also read the archive of Tatchell's Guardian articles here:

" http://commentisfree.guardian.co.uk/peter_tatchell/"

Again, none of these articles support any of the outrageous defamatory
allegations made by Karl / Stelios.

You can also read a biography of Tatchell here, which shows that Tatchell is the exact opposite of Karl / Stelios's misrepresentations:

" http://www.petertatchell.net/biography/biography2007.htm"

Read all this and judge for yourself. You will see that Karl and certain Respect Party colleagues are stooping to dirty political tricks to gain political advantage.

Best wishes.

Friends of Peter Tatchell
