Abroad, complicity between British and American officials and reactionary Islam go back a long way in using it as a weapon against nationalist anti-colonial movements.This included plotting with the Muslim Brotherhood to assassinate Gamal Abdel Nasser: the coup against the democratically elected Iranian leader Mohammed Mussadiq with the help of the ayatollahs, with a young cleric called Ruhollah Khomeini a junior member of the conspiracy: the removal of Ahmed Sukarno in Indonesia in another coup carried out with the help of Darul Islam whose followers went on to massacre socialists and trade unionists.

Then, of course, there is the use of Islamists during the Cold War and its aftermath: the creation of the international jihad against the Russians in Afghanistan, during which the murderous Gulbuddin Heklmatyar was a guest of Margaret Thatcher at No 10 --- the US would put a bounty of $ 5 million on his head later: the sending of Muslim fighters to the Balkans, central Asian Soviet republics, into China: support for the Pakistani secret police, ISI, with its terrorist links.

don't forget, when secular & leftist Palestinian leaders were being hunted down like dogs and forced to go into hiding, the usurping Zionist Entity actively encouraged Hamas and other Islamic fundamentalists to build mosques, clubs, schools and libraries (the founder of Hamas ran an Israeli recognized charity) so they could supplant the secular-nationalist movement.
