    Not true. They post hate speech from right wing politicians verbatim all the time.

    As for the tweets being somewhere else, it seems that it’s this:

    Can someone please tell the freedom fighters in Palestine to flip their phones and film horizontal

    To the inattentive and/or wilfully misinterpreting, that might come off as an endorsement of Hamas as “freedom fighters”, but note that she doesn’t mention Hamas by name and that Hamas aren’t usually the ones filming any of their atrocities.

    Add her clarification from a few days later and it’s clear she’s talking about regular people filming the atrocities of the Israeli oppressors and isn’t referring to terrorism at all, unless you define it broadly enough to include the Israeli state terrorism:

    I just want to make it clear that this statement in no way shape or form is [inciting] spread of violence," she said. "I specifically said freedom fighters because that’s what the Palestinian citizens are… fighting for freedom every day

    As I suspected, she didn’t do what they said she did. She just had the temerity to speak up against the apartheid regime.

      I tried to read all her Tweets despite not having a Twitter account and yes, none of them mention Hamas or support Hamas. She’s just telling people to tear down the wall.

      Apparently, that’s only okay in Berlin and other places. Clearly tearing down the siege wall surrounding Gaza or the apartheid wall that has plagued Palestinians and ruined their agricultural lands for years and years is a big no-no.

      Down with the goddamn fucking walls.

        apartheid wall that has plagued Palestinians and ruined their agricultural lands for years and years is a big no-no.

        Not to mention thousands being forced to go through military checkpoints to reach the nearest schools and hospitals, if they’re lucky enough to even be allowed to pass.

          She meant freedom fighters, not necessarily Hamas. She seems to have also clarified in another tweet what she meant by that.
