Corbyn, let me add, demands a "diplomatic solution" to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Claiming that Ukraine should give up its sovereign right to make alliances as it sees fit as a way to appease Putin.

The only diplomatic solution acceptable is full Russian withdrawal.

(1,631 posts)Corbin was not anti-Semite. He was anti- Israel GOVERNMENT POLICY.
When you conflate the two, you play into the hands of the establishment.
And corybn did not destroy himself. He was destroyed as he explains in the video.
I live in Britain. His policies were good for the most part. His political tactics left something to be desired. He didnt fight back effectively.
I dont agree that peace in the Ukraine is achievable. There needs to be a strong global military and economic strategy for a long time.
However, states like Britain and Israel have long acted as client states for US, Corbyn is correct here.
Its a good recap and the video is worth watching, especially if the viewer and expel any existing propaganda that exists in their thinking.

(92,372 posts)invaded Ukraine. It wasnt Russias fault, we made him do it.
Corbyn is against free enterprise, whether it is regulated or not
For those who argue that Corbyn is only against Israeli policies, not against Jews, is just smoke screen for his actual feelings, which have been demonstrated by his associations.
Corbyn doesnt want to heal anything. He doesnt advocate a two-state solution. He isnt opposing specific Israeli policies. He wants Israel to not exist, and the Jews are just an inconvenience

(111,332 posts)but absent catastrophe that destroys the ability of monopolists and billionaires to block it all, it's not likely to get done.
One thing we can be sure of, though, is that these catastrophes do happen and with sobering regularity. Young people need to think about how to prevent the sickening imbalance of entrenched power and wealth from happening again. Otherwise, the cycle will just keep on repeating over and over again.
We don't even need war or financial collapse or a meteor strike. Climate change is happening more rapidly now and that is going to put a huge wrench into the works of those who want to keep the status quo going. It hasn't been sustainable for many decades. People alive now are likely to see the wheels come off, the engine blow up, and even the movers and shakers looking for ways to survive along with everybody else.

(53,979 posts)Yes, I lost 7 minutes of my life. While I agree with some of his points, he is NO different than politicians on the extreme right also being "persecuted." Again...
