Jeremy Corbyn, a former leader of the main opposition Labour Party in Britain, recently expressed his support for South Africa’s case against Israel, stating that it is “very strong.”
Speaking to Al Jazeera in The Hague, Corbyn commended the presentation of the case, describing it as analytical, non-sensational, and minimalist in terms of the images presented.
Jeremy Corbyn emphasized the importance of the interim injunction requested by South African lawyers, expressing hope that it will be granted soon if international law is to hold any meaning.

However, he also acknowledged that even if the request is successful, change would be incremental.
According to Corbyn, every action taken in support of the Palestinian cause, no matter how small, contributes to making a difference. Whether it is waving a Palestinian flag in the streets or speaking up in a parliament, these actions create incremental change.
He believes that each step forward, however small, is crucial in raising awareness and ultimately bringing about meaningful transformation.
Corbyn’s perspective highlights the significance of collective efforts in advocating for the rights of the Palestinian people.
While the outcome of South Africa’s case may have a limited immediate impact, it serves as another step towards justice and equality.
By continuing to raise awareness and speak out against the injustices faced by Palestinians, individuals and nations can contribute to the incremental progress necessary for lasting change.
