NO, she was censured because she posted a video using a slogan popular with anti semitics, let's get that right. I understand she's trying to appeal to her people but you can't just come out and support hatred from the other side.
Yes and no. If a terrorist group co-opts and reinterprets my national slogan, whose slogan is it? Which interpretation is right? Which interpretation was she using?
It's pretty much always meant kill all the jews there. Also once a slogan or symbol gets corrupted it's not really usable anymore, see the swastika.
Logic falls apart when you realize swastikas are still common in asian countries. Don't let the terrorists win.
