It's not that Belle allied herself with Rumple but that she got back together with him despite that not a week ago, he had stalked, terrororised, manipulated her and threatened Gideon. Rumple is abusive towards her and she should not have gotten back with him.

If it had been them being allies but once it's finished and Gideon is safe they split up it would have been much better.

I think Emma wanting to kill Gideon is not wholly unreasonable given that, in addition to kidnapping Hook and holdig him hostage where he could very much die, he had tried to kill her and she did not know he wasn't acting under his own free will. Although I hated Snow in that scene.
