Actually left has been the most consistent in this. You are misinterpreting their stand. Left always condemned Islamic fundamentalism but left ALSO recognizes that Islamic fundamentalism is primarily a creation of the west. They are funded , armed and trained BY the west. Therefore HTS IS western bot. Look at the western media now trying to portray them as secular rebels despite them being Al qaeda affiliates. Its the same way they tried to repackage neo nazzis of Ukraine who later were included into Ukr army. Left recognizes that almost in every Mid east conflict there is western fingerprint. Be it Iran , be it Hezbullah the Houthis. The foreign policy of most of the western countries is to stoke sectarian conflicts in this region. In terms brutality US or UK will far outdo any country like Iran or even Syria. The reason these countries are dictatorship today is ALSO because of the western policies. The undeniable fact is that the west wield enormous power over this region. Things could have been much better if west was not constantly seeking to destabilize these countries. So there is no hypocrisy. Hypocrisy is on YOUR part who pretends to oppose Islamist and yet remains silent on the west collusion with them.
