Corbyn's Chorus

The provided article critiques Jeremy Corbyn's recent speech on the Israel-Gaza conflict. The article argues that Corbyn's call for peace and adherence to international law serves as a smokescreen, deflecting attention from the Labour Party's pro-war stance and preventing genuine action against the ongoing violence. The piece accuses Corbyn of opportunism, asserting that he uses the conflict to rehabilitate his image and position himself as a moral authority, despite his perceived inaction and failures during his leadership of the Labour Party. It claims his calls for de-escalation lack substance and fail to address the root causes of the conflict, specifically Israeli state repression. The article further criticizes Corbyn's avoidance of explicitly condemning Israel's actions and his reluctance to mobilize the working class against the Labour government's policies. It views his approach as inherently limited and ultimately serving to protect the interests of the ruling class, rather than advocating for genuine peace and justice for the Palestinian people. find the original article here: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/03/11/yrkj-m11.html
