Israelis rally to condemn Tel Aviv’s war plans against Iran

The campaigners fear that mounting pressure on Iran can escalate into an all-out regional war, the effects of which will reverberate globally Press TV reported.

The protest followed a recent spontaneous Facebook campaign in which a large number of anti-war activists working on the internet united in their opposition to potential war against Iran.

On Saturday, the participants in the march held signs with captions such as "No to War with Iran," and "Talks, not Bombs," as well as “No to pre-emptive suicide.”

Jeremy Corbyn, the chair of the 'Stop the War Coalition,' told Russia Today that isolating Iran and allowing Israel to continue with its threats will lead to very dangerous developments.

“The way forward has to be de-escalating the tension and denuclearizing the region, otherwise somebody somewhere is going to develop a nuclear weapon,” he said.

He urged people to think about the consequences of a possible attack on Iran, saying it would dramatically affect the world economy and result in an inconceivable human loss should it happen.

“If we let slip the dogs of war, we will all regret it,” he concluded.

A recent poll conducted by the Israeli daily Haaretz in cooperation with Tel Aviv University in early March showed that 58 percent of the respondents were against a military strike by Israel on Iran.

The US and Israel accuse Tehran of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear energy program.

Iran refutes the allegations, arguing that as a committed signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and member of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), it has the right to use nuclear technology for peaceful use.

The IAEA has never found any evidence indicating that Tehran's civilian nuclear program has been diverted towards nuclear weapons production.
