That's all. If you're very inattentive or deliberately misinterpreting her words, you'd think that she was endorsing Hamas as "freedom fighters".
But if you DO pay attention and know anything, you'll notice that she never mentions Hamas and know that Hamas aren't usually the ones filming any of their atrocities. Add her clarification from a few days later and it's clear that she did NOT endorse Hamas and is the victim of character assassination because she had the temerity to speak up against the apartheid regime:
Holly shit the mental gymnastics here are astounding. You're just casually assuming that she is some kind of top geopolitical expert.
Nope. I'm merely refraining from assuming without evidence that she's endorsing terrorism.
You don't have to be "some kind of top geopolitical expert" to know that Hamas don't tend to film their atrocities themselves and that oppressed Palestinians very often film the atrocities of the Israeli occupation forces.
If there's any mental gymnastics here, it's in confusing common knowledge for elite geopolitical expertise.
I think you don't realise how little knowledge "common knowledge" actually is. Peolple on lemmee arent you're average joe when it comes to geopolitical knowledge. I am not dismissing her knowledge eitherx but i believe you are overestimating it.
Yeah because a Lebanese-American public figure who sympathises with the plight of Palestine has NEVER had to answer bad faith arguments equating Hamas with all Palestinians and would thus have NO need for more knowledge about the methods of them than your average inattentive and incurious casual ingester of pro-regime billionaire-owned American news! 🙄
