What is the irony of mark Antonys funeral speech?

The irony of Mark Antony's funeral speech lies in his repeated assertion that he is not trying to incite the crowd against the conspirators who killed Julius Caesar, while simultaneously doing exactly that. He uses the phrase "Brutus is an honorable man" to undermine Brutus's credibility, all while appealing to the crowd's emotions with his genuine grief over Caesar's death.
