UK warmongering imperialists immediately attack Jeremy Corbyn for being the voice of reason against a possible war with Iran
UK ministers including the foreign secretary have been quick to ridicule Jeremy Corbyn’s call for caution over blaming Iran for two attacks on Gulf tankers last week. The problem is the EU supports the Labour leader’s stance.
In the aftermath of Thursday’s attack, Corbyn took to social media to warn that the UK government’s rhetoric concerning the issue would “only increase the threat of war.” He suggested that they should be working to “ease tensions in the Gulf” and called for “credible evidence” to be put forward before entering into the blame game.

A viewpoint that riled Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt, who branded the Labour leader “pathetic and predictable,” and asked why Corbyn can never back “British allies” [the US] or “British intelligence.”
Home Secretary Sajid Javid also waded in on Twitter, claiming Corbyn was “never on the side of the country he seeks to lead,” preferring to side with those that ‘threaten Britain’s national security’.

Pathetic and predictable. From Salisbury to the Middle East, why can he never bring himself to back British allies, British intelligence or British interests? https://t.co/8JyGz7T4Yx— Jeremy Hunt (@Jeremy_Hunt) June 15, 2019
Why is Jeremy Corbyn never on the side of the country he seeks to lead? Time and time again - be it the provenance of Novichok, or the banning of Hizbollah - he gives the benefit of the doubt to those who threaten our national security https://t.co/s8eRBYYwQA— Sajid Javid (@sajidjavid) June 15, 2019
Yet, Twitter users slammed both Jeremy Hunt and Sajid Javid. Here is only a sample of the responses:

Seeing the booming industry profit in body bags & munitions, Hunt is intoxicated by the scent of blood condemns closer scrutiny, of a staged event.— Meurig Davies (@crustycobs) June 16, 2019
Unfortunately Jeremy- we have all witnessed in recent ywars the false flags of the US and UK to damage countries, oust legitimate Govts. No-one believes you anymorehttps://t.co/hbBazs1HEw pic.twitter.com/RKdKYJ0Yoqkmm9973 (@kim9973) June 16, 2019
That’s one of the most stupid tweets I’ve ever read. Are you by any chance trying to be leader of the Tory party?— Randall Northam (@RandallNortham) June 15, 2019
Is this latast tactic to gain favor in the Tory leadership race Jeremy? See who can be the most blatantly obsequious to Trump & the NeoCon warmongers busy manufacturing consent for another needless forever war? #NoWarWithIran— Pitchforks4All (@RaybouldJohn) June 15, 2019
All of you Israeli embassy $$$ recipients, show some originality. You all tweet the exact same vomit, over and over again.
Tell you paymasters in the embassy to vary the text.— irrumabo religio Ⓥ (@quaeritis) June 17, 2019
You think we should back our government's foreign policy, even when it's wrong, purely in the name of patriotism? You have an unenlightened, childish perspective. I'm proud to have opposed Iraq; I suspect Jeremy Corbyn is too.— Nathaniel Bayard (@NathanielBayard) June 16, 2019
He’s trying to save the UK from the traitors. He’s actually on the side of the people. That’s what democratic leaders are suppose to do. Not be in the side of the corrupt oligarchs. Perhaps you should take a civics lessons 😳— Anna Le Claire ⏳ (@annaleclaire) June 16, 2019
