If you've read the comments in full then I'd say you were being naive. She refers to Jews as a problem and likens Israeli policies to those of Hitler. The tone is very clear and these comments weren't made a decade ago when she was young and immature - it was 2014. I agree people have said a lot worse, but Labour were very clear that there was a zero tolerance policy being imposed. Corbyn then does nothing and Shah is subsequently suspended by the General Secretary. It's shambolic at best.
Did she though? The original tweet says nothing about 'Jews' and in the context of the state of Israel being created in 1948, is not actually that outrageous a thought experiment.
I feel that most of this outrage is a thinly-veiled excuse to bash Labour.
The original tweet isn't where she made that remark. This is far from a 'thinly veiled excuse to bash Labour'. The ones doing the bashing are Labour MPs and Labour peers!
