With just one word, Labour MPs reveal utter contempt for Corbyn supporters

31. It depends what you mean by

"Israel's right to exist". I certainly don't agree with its right to exist by fragmenting Palestine to the point where it can no longer function. My objections - and Corbyn's - are shared by quite a number on the Israeli left and the saner members of their society.

I'm not interested in a deep discussion about that here, because in my experience, debating it with Americans online is a waste of time, which is why I doubt you'll see me mentioning it at all in the years since 2008, when I joined, up to now.

And you persist in that horrible anti-Corbyn slur, which means I'm even more convinced my decision in that is right.

Blairite forces are behind the attempted coup. That's not all that's happening. The timing is also because the vast majority of the PLP never wanted him as leader and have been itching for a Corbyn "failure" as an excuse to trigger concerted calls for his resignation since his election, and they all fell flat in the past because he unexpectedly kept winning by-elections etc. (in the same sense he'd have been held responsible if they'd lost).

Corbyn was on the right side of history about Iraq, however else you question his judgement. He wanted to apologize for Labour's part in it when he got elected leader, but postponed that till after the report was released. He's said that Blair should stand trial for war crimes if the report indicates that's appropriate (unlikely from what I've heard in advance, but we'll see how the media spin it as they're out for labour blood right now).

The major figures on the right of the PLP are either implicated in the Labour government in power at the time or think they did "the right thing" and have consistently opposed any inquiry, including Chilcot.

I've joined some dots about all this. I may not be right, but it's a widespread suspicion.
