Corbyn has made it abundantly clear that he is sympathetic to groups such as Hamas, so this is no surprise.
“Influential Corbyn-supporting Facebook page run by Hamas from Gaza,” by Donna Rachel Edmunds, Jerusalem Post, December 9, 2019:
Hamas officials in both Gaza and London are working in support of Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party, ahead of the UK general election on Thursday.
According to Tazpit Press Service (TPS), the “We Support Jeremy Corbyn” Facebook page, one of the largest and most influential Corbyn support networks globally with some 72,000 members, is managed from the Gaza strip.
For over two years the page was managed by Walid Abu Rouk, a resident of Khan Yunis in the Gaza strip, after Labour Party members added him as a page manager in June 2017, declaring him “our man in Gaza.” Abu Rouk confirmed to TPS that he served as the page’s manager until recently.
However, Rouk also has clear ties to the heart of Hamas’ propaganda efforts. A source in the strip who wished to remain anonymous told TPS “Abu Rouk serves Hamas’ information campaign and is guided by it.”
The official said that Rouk is a key link in Hamas’ English language propaganda service thanks to his excellent command of the English language, and is operating under guidance from Hamas officials….
Speaking with TPS, Rouk said that he writes for Al Jazeera, the Qatari owned news network affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood, for PALESTINE 24, and for Middle East Eye. He is also the founder of the GP+ media site based in Gaza, which is run by Muhammad Ibrahim Madun, a journalist often quoted internationally as a Hamas affiliate.
But his links extend beyond the Middle East and into London: he also writes for London-based Memo Monitor, thought to be one of the Muslim Brotherhood’s media outlets. Memo Monitor often publishes pro-Corbyn and Labour Party content….
In addition to his media roles, Rouk also writes for Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), a supposedly Jewish movement known for its support for the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement.
He has further promoted the so-called Freedom Flotillas to the Gaza strip which aimed at breaking Israeli security measures in the Mediterranean Sea. The flotillas were run by Viva Palestina, an organisation set up by disgraced former politician George Galloway, who was expelled from the Labour Party under previous leadership for antisemitism….

Is Corbyn a secret Muslim??? Sure looks like it.
Janice Mermikli says
I very much doubt it, as he is more or less communist in his outlook and world view. He supports Islamic movements because, like them, he is virulently anti-West. He also sees Muslims as downtrodden and disdavantaged, which they often are, although he doesn’t recognise the fact that they are almost invariably downtrodden and disadvantaged by other Muslims, not by “infidels.” He seems to be very dull intellectually, and, despite a wealthy and privileged background and first-rate private education, has no academic qualifications.

Once again the left shows that it is very intimate with the jihadis.

Hamas runs influential pro-Corbyn Facebook page out of Gaza
……………….
Corbyn is *way worse*t than the average Leftist clueless about Islam–he is actually pro-Jihad, so this does not surprise.

“Corbyn is… actually pro-Jihad…”
Corbyn’s actions do corroborate your statement.

Grimly true.
Janice Mermikli says
He is pro-Jihad because there is a shared hatred of the West.

My goodness. This is foreign influence in the UK’s “democracy”. Should they not impeach Corbyn immediately? BBC needs to fuel some impeachment hysteria.

Corbyn has now stepped down. Glad to hear it.
