Corbyn's 'friends from Hezbollah... friends from Hamas speech', what else did he say?

"What we're in favour of is a Palestine [not an Israel] where everyone can live, they can't live if you've got Zionism"

I think he needs to fully explain these comments.

Thread 1/7
A longer segment.
Apparently it's not antisemitic for wanting a Palestine, but evidently no Israel and of course no Zionism.

Also, allegations of antisemitism didn't just start in 2015, this Corbyn acknowledging them back in 2009.

Corbyn started his speech welcoming his "friends from Hezbollah... and friends from Hamas"

He then went on to say that meeting these terrorists organisations in Parliament (that he had arranged) was absolutely the right function of using Parliamentary facilities. 3/7
Here Corbyn lavishes praise on Hamas.

"an organisation dedicated towards the good of the Palestinian people"

"It brings about long-term peace & social justice and political justice"

"labelling them terrorists is a big, big historical mistake." 4/7
Here's what Amnesty International said at the time about Hamas' 'social & political justice'.

'a flagrant disregard fro the most fundamental human rights norms'

'It wants Hamas to 'immediately end the campaign of abductions & unlawful killings, torture and death threats.' 5/7
Corbyn concluded his speech by essentially coming out and supporting both Hezbollah and Hamas, two terrorist organisations.

'Our function is to support those people who are supporting & defending & representing the Palestinian people.'

He welcomes these friends to London. 6/7.
This is what Hezbollah were doing in London.

'Radicals linked to Hizbollah, the Lebanese militant group, stashed thousands of disposable ice packs containing ammonium nitrate - a common ingredient in homemade bombs.' 7/7 End.

Here are some photos of social and political justice Hamas style.

Coming to a country near you, if Corbyn has his way.
