it seems to be more than that

the Israeli government can be utter pieces of shite, but the framing of most argument is pro-Palestinian more than anti-Israel

i've said this a couple times but this comes down to the respect for power. leftist ideology, at least publicly, hates power and doesn't want it used as a justification for all sorts of things (including creating states). Palestinians are seen as lacking power and are therefore marginalized and perfect members of the modern-leftist coalition. it almost doesn't matter what they do or how evil they can be, because their lack of power justifies it all

hell you even seen this narrative slipped into the reporting on conflicts. the people who promote the leftist/marginalized narratives absolutely hate that Israel has better weapons so they frame reporting to hide the bad acts of the Palestinians and over-represent the Israeli power. it got to the point of absolute lies with this last one, with people reporting "peaceful" protests that were anything but

the sad part is Hamas knows how to play Western media like a fiddle and they carry water for a terrorist organization. have some self awareness

Is it though?

I think most just want to take a balanced look at the situation and be fair to both sides.
