So the election of Corbyn would usher in a new millennium of peace and put an end to terror attacks by Islamist jihadis?
Somehow I doubt that.
There really isn't any strong connection between the Iraq War and the Libyan refugee who blew up all the little girls at the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, you know. And the Islamists who run down people on the bridges in London and then get out to stab people don't even mention Iraq---in between stabbing and slashing Brits they said they were murdering people for Allah. If they are concerned about a ME war, they are concerned about Syria---not Iraq.
And look at France and Germany. France and Germany took no part in the Iraq War, and yet the Islamist terrorists show no hesitation about attacking France and Germany. There have been hundreds of people murdered in France and Germany just in the last year, not a single one of whom had anything to do with the Iraq War.
I take the terrorists at their word. If say they are murdering people for Allah, then thats what they believe they are doing. They think that are on jihad, fighting "the followers of the cross" and the "crusaders." Thats what they say in their martyrdom videos. Iraq never crosses their minds. Some of them are followers of the Caliphate and ISIS in Syria, but Iraq really doesn't seem to be a big issue anymore, except for older people who haven't kept up with current events since 2004.
Its a pleasant enough little fantasy that the election of Corbyn would end Islamic terror attacks in the UK, but IMHO its really just another deceptive fantasy.
CHEERS!
