my point was, simply, that Corbyn's supports appear to believe he is beyond moral reproach yet even loyal Conservatives would look askance if Cameron cut the line after refusing to condemn the IRA or "forgot" he had shared a platform with an anti-Semitic Middle Eastern activist.

Plenty of people take the view that Bin Laden's death was no sort of tragedy and he got what he justly deserved. Corbyn would have preferred to see him on trial, fair enough, but he apparently doesn't want to see IRA commanders on trial.

Beskar's tone makes me think he's drunk the Corbynaid, as the Americans would say, and it seems many others have too.

You are contriving scandal by wilfully misinterpreting statements that Corbyn has made, and by taking an aggressive and partisan line on political positions that are both reasonable and adult. Whilst simultaneously ignoring great hypocrisy and injustice perpetrated by the Tories because it isn't championed by the right wing press.

Britain's actions in Afghanistan, Libya, Syria and Iraq have been incompetent, murderous and disastrous. The only lettuce leaf of a defence is that it "could have been worse".
