(Arab News) British MP Ian Paisley has called Facebook’s decision to appoint Muslim Brotherhood sympathizer Tawakkol Karman to its oversight board “unbelievable.”
Karman rose to prominence as part of Al-Islah Party, a Yemeni affiliate of the Muslim Brotherhood known for its divisive and violent agenda. Her appointment to Facebook’s oversight board, the body established to arbitrate on the content allowed on the platform, has drawn global ire.
In an online discussion, British MP Ian Paisley expressed disbelief at her appointment.
“This decision by Facebook, I believe, is so counterintuitive, it’s unbelievable,” he said.
