The revelations keep on coming. This time from the Jewish News https://jewishnews.timesofisrael.com/corbyn-praised-convicted-terrorist-as-ambassador-for-peace-in-2004/
'Jeremy Corbyn praised a convicted terrorist as an "ambassador for peace" in a parliamentary motion, an investigation by an Israeli media outlet has revealed.
The Labour leader hailed the head of the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, Marwan Barghouti, in two Early Day Motions (EDM) in 2004.
In 2004, Marwan Barghouti was sentenced to five consecutive life sentences by a judge over connections to a wave of terror attacks and membership of a terrorist group, during the second intifada.
Following a probe by Israeli TV station and website i24News, it was discovered that Corbyn sponsored at least five EDMs demanding his release.
In a 2007 address, Corbyn's "endorse[d] the call that has been made for the release of Marwan Barghouti", adding he'd "be part of a dialogue that will eventually bring about peace and justice for the Palestinian people".
The earliest EDM was signed by 33 Labour and Liberal Democrat MPs in 2002, while a 2004 motion demanded his "immediate release".
The current Labour leader and other MPs praised him as an "ambassador for peace" who had "campaigned tirelessly for the implementation of the peace process", despite I24News revealing that Corbyn deleted an article on his website from 2004, saying Barghouti "gave up on the Oslo peace process".'
More in the Jewish News but obviously not on the institutionally anti Israel, and antisemitic based on at least one of the IHRA examples, BBC. The BBC will do their very best to not publicise such facts as they work ceaselessly to get Jeremy Corbyn as the next Prime Minister.
