You actually read what this guy wrote? Just because one time he said that Netanyahu would be better at removing settlers does not mean he was a Netanyahu supporter some quotes from your own article:

Not because a Netanyahu government will more effectively rebuild the Israeli left.

And Netanyahu is the only one who will be able to confront these refusenik settlers.

We, as the backbone of the Israeli peace camp need to reframe our political challenge. Under normal circumstances, it is the main task of the opposition is to convince the public to replace the ruling regime and its political platform and propose a real alternative. Now, in Israel 2012, our task and challenge is to embrace Netanyahu and to convince him to become the historic leader that he thinks he is. Netanyahu’s historic role must be not to bomb Iran, but to make peace with the Palestinians and to reach out to the Arab world and embrace the Arab peace initiative.

Sounds like he is supporting Netanyahu only because he thinks he will be heavy handed with the extreme right, not because he sees eye to eye with him in any way. Now that Netanyahu has made it clear, he has no intention of immediately withdrawing any settlers, he's probably changed his tune. Now he sees this as an opportunity to remove Netanyahu.
