could  you give some examples of "hardcore Leftists"
(do you mean "Marxists"?) supporting Islamists (I take
it you mean something like "militant pro-terror Islamists")?
(with references)

incidentally, Marxists can support national liberation movements
and that has been so for quite some decades now; the analytic
primacy of class does not rule it out.

thanks
