Corbyn on Terrorism on 13:40 - May 26 by blueytheblue
I might be wrong but you're missing Corbyn spectacularly refusing to condemn IRA actions in the Manchester bombing, hanging up when being repeatedly asked.

He couldn't hear because of all the noise.
The first ever recipient of a Planet Swans Lifetime Achievement Award.
"Of course all killing is wrong...BUT" That type of thing?
"IRA men and women, many young and hopelessly politically naive, derived great encouragement from the solidarity openly displayed by Corbyn, McDonnell and their associates.I know. I was there. I witnessed the effect. They might not have pulled a trigger or planted a bomb but they certainly made it easier for those who did. By boosting our morale, they prolonged the violence and without a doubt for that, have blood on their own hands."

An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

You believe Ex Ira scum Sean o Callaghan killer of British soliders ?
Although they are currently taking over a city in the Philippines . Bombing in Egypt today as well .
The point you've spectacularly missed is terrorist attacks have taken place by Daesh in European locations where the nations have not partaken in Iraq, Syria, Libya.

Belgium in particular.
Which undermines the "it's our fault" mantra.
But the issue is intervention in these countries has, more often than not, caused massive instability and a power vacuum, creating at climate where breeding grounds for extremism develop.

So our involvement in Iraq is the cause for terrorists in the UK, so what is the cause for the terrorists in France, Germany, etc.
France's colonial history in Algeria?
Dunno about Germany, or Sweden. Probably just a hatred of western values.
There's obviously more going on here than simply a reaction to western foreign policy. Don't recall kids being blown to bits in the west by Vietnamese terrorists.

Corbin is the first politician who has really used the recent attack for political gain
He will deny it,as will his supporters,as will his lieutenant and terrorists champion ,Chaka.
He was duplicitous during IRA days and he is today
He s been questioned about THIS attack not ALL attacks, it's subtle and it flies over many heads
It's why ,like it or not,this nation would be in grave risk if he were PM
You have a seething hatred for Corbyn but not for May whose slashing of police numbers has helped make this recent attack easier to pull off.
Corbyn was one of the first to engage the IRA to persuade them to come to the negotiating table. But in your head he was complicit in planting bombs. Get help.

We hear this "Corbyn was persuading them to come to negotiating table" mantra but is there any actual evidence?
What influence would socialist living in Islington have with the IRA? Especially one who has never held any public office... just seems odd he'd have been in 72 or so events during the IRA's paramilitary years...

Islington's not too far from Kilburn I suppose.
Hmm, wife just reminded me Corbyn backed the campaign to overturn the guilty verdicts of the two delightful chaps behind the bombing of the Israeli embassy in 94.
Both admitted possessing explosives and guns but apparently they were innocent because they claimed the weapons weren't to be used in Britain!
Court High court and ECHR both upheld the verdicts.
Anyhoo, I'd imagine Corbyn's pledge not to involve the UK in dumb foreign sojourns which only serve to destabilise an already volatile region further will meet with quite some support these days.
