WikiLeaks evidence that the imperialist machine was monitoring anti-imperialist Jeremy Corbyn at least since the US invasion of Iraq

The WIKILEAKS Public Library of US Diplomacy (PlusD) holds the world's largest searchable collection of United States confidential, or formerly confidential, diplomatic communications. As of April 8, 2013 it holds 2 million records comprising approximately 1 billion words. The collection covers US involvements in, and diplomatic or intelligence reporting on, every country on earth. It is the single most significant body of geopolitical material ever published. The PlusD collection, built and curated by WikiLeaks, is updated from a variety of sources, including leaks, documents released under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and documents released by the US State Department systematic declassification review. 


A cable from December, 2002, proves that the US officials were closely monitoring anti-war activities. The particular cable was describing a protest "against a possible U.S.-led operation against Iraq" in Istanbul, Turkey, and there is a special reference to current UK Labour party leader, Jeremy Corbyn, who was among the anti-war speakers.

Key parts (most important highlighted):

Around 5,000 people in Istanbul protested against a possible U.S.-led operation against Iraq on Sunday. The anti-war demonstration was organized with the participation of more than 170 NGOs, including the country's three big unions: Turk-Is (the Confederation of Turkish Labor Unions), the Confederation of Revolutionary Labor Unions (DISK) and the Confederation of Public Sector Labor Unions (KESK). Other participating organizations included the Chamber of Engineers and Architects, the Union of Turkish Doctors, Greenpeace, some political parties and several Islamist groups. 

The protest started around 11.00 a.m. in Abide-I Hurriyet Square in Istanbul's downtown Sisli District under tight police control. During the meeting, the union leaders made speeches and the crowd chanted anti-US and anti-war slogans including "No to Imperialist War," and "We Will Not Be American Soldiers." The speakers included a British Member of Parliament, Jeremy Corbyn from the Labor Party. The crowd dispersed after a few hours and there was no violence during the demonstration. 

Comment: Police contacts confirmed to us that 5,000 people participated in the demonstration, but noted that they had anticipated a crowd twice that size.



Another paper from The Global Intelligence Files archive, concerns an email sent by BBC (about eight years later) to one of the top US deep state think tanks, Stratfor. Under the title BBC Monitoring Alert - IRAN, the email is actually a report (in the English language) of the Iranian official government news agency, IRNA. In the short description before the report we read that "British MP says US sanctions will not improve relations with Iran". And from the report, the British MP is Jeremy Corbyn.

Perhaps the most impressive is not the fact that BBC was informing Stratfor, but the fact that Jeremy Corbyn - as it can be depicted also on the title of the email - was troubling the imperialists with his stance on various matters, even as a simple MP and long before his rise as the leader of the Labour party.

Now that he is quite dangerously close to become the next British PM, the imperialist machine attacks him full force, in plain sight. Only a small sample, is a September 2019 article on Foreign Policy. The title leaves zero doubt: Jeremy Corbyn Is a National Security Threat. The rest of the article is essentially the typical US deep state propaganda that seeks to demonize anyone who dares to work for peace and dialogue as a "Russian agent", or, "threat to national security".

The more the ruthless imperialists attack Jeremy Corbyn, the greater our certainty that he should be the next British PM becomes.

Israel is responsible for one of the cruelest genocides in modern history

UN Palestinian Rights Committee   In her address to the Human Rights Council on 3 July 2025, Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, warned of a genocide unfolding in Gaza and the West Bank.    She described the situation as “apocalyptic,” stating that “Israel is responsible for one of the cruelest genocides in modern history.”    With over 200,000 Palestinians reported killed or injured and the real toll “far higher,” she accused Israel of dismantling humanitarian aid in Gaza, replacing it with a “so-called 'Gaza Humanitarian Foundation' [that] is nothing else than a death trap.”    She emphasized that this was not an isolated crisis but part of a decades-long “settler colonial project of erasure” that has intensified in recent months through military force, starvation, and mass displacement. Albanese condemned the deep complicity of corporate and state actors i...
