      This actually shows that she is a very astute politician.

      First few days when Israel was caught offguard and Hamas’s attack seemed actually threatening to the settlers, the socdem instinct to protect imperialism was triggered, condemning pro-Palestinian sentiment as anti-semitism.

      Few days later when Israel has finally gotten its shit together and Hamas’s initial momentum had faded, and the fate of the Gaza Palestinians is one that awaits to be slaughtered, the socdem is once again safe to call Israel out for their inhumane treatment against the Palestinians.

      Pay attention to how their rhetoric changes: when the oppressed rises up and imperialists are under threat, they will denigrate you for supporting “terrorism”, and when the imperialists are finally putting down the oppressed, they will tell you how this is wrong and how they have always condemned such inhumane practices.
