Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't she personally vote to send more weapons to the genocidal entity and justify it by saying that while genocide is bad, the Palestinian people must be eternally oppressed and pushed down because if they are not, they might come after the colonizers who oppress and murder them?

She actually tried the "defensive weapons" line

"I'm not giving them bombs to kill Palestinians, only anti-air missiles to shoot down any response to the genocide and keep it going without reprisal"

"Defensive weapons" is like the new Clean Wehrmacht Myth

Given she voted to give them anti-air missiles, it's more about Iran, not that that makes it much better

Anti-air systems were used extensively against Hamas and Hezbollah and Yemeni rockets as well

Basically, AOC, like most libs, only supports Palestinians if they're meek weak victims and children. As soon as they stand up for themselves and fight for their survival and lives then they deserve the Israeli missile. Hence the Liberal mantra during the genocide that this was "only about killing Hamas" and then Israel would stop. They wanted Israel to kill Hamas, and they give rhetorical cover to the genocide while claiming to oppose it.

Such "allies" are worse than useless. They're confused at best, zionist at worst, and actively wreaking havoc in the pro-Palestine community with their bullshit rhetoric and Hamas condemnations
