Maybe I'm a highly sensitive 
person 
but this whole thing is really 
bumming me out and it's like no one around me cares.
And it's not even the dead Israelis, it's more that 2 millions Palestinians could die potentially. That's a lot? Then it came to me, totally 
originally, about how this is like 9/11 and Afghanistan 
so we have that suffering 
to look forward to. While people on Twitter 
are crying 
about a few dead families, think 
about the kind of dread I have been experiencing all by myself.

It actually bums me out how readily americans let israeli perspectives drown out any consideration for Palestinians.
Sorry but I'm gonna vent. Coworker who I otherwise respect pulled me over to show me a vid on ig of an israeli woman revealing how the son of someone they knew was murdered along with his girlfriend, and she (coworker) said "I wish we could kill these people [committing these attacks] so we can study how their brains work". Frick! I didn't really say anything, but that grossed me out, and honestly it's been bothering me the whole day. It's like Palestinian lives have no value. They grow up generation after generation in an open-air prison in which every average israeli gets an opportunity to be a prison guard, settlers evict families and tear up centuries-old olive groves and destroy wells, IDF snipers shoot protesters and journ*lists, whole families get wiped out by bombings, and this is just everyday reality for Palestinians, but outrage and remorse from the average spectator in the US only comes when the people being murdered are israelis. I'm not of the opinion that anybody who's been killed over the last few days deserved it, but it's almost sickening how little consideration americans give to anything that led up to this or how these kinds of acts are motivated. Can't help but feel some level of despair over this.

None of this is wrong (and if you think it is you're an r-slur and should keep yourself safe) but this rsp user answers the why right after
Americans don't care about the motivation or the causes (even though this is how we got stuck in the middle east for 20 years, yay for trillions wasted) because they have no reason to care. Support for Israel doesn't come from burgers thinking Israel is moral - that's post hoc rationalization. Burgers support Israel because they like Israel. That's it. The average person doesn't care about being righteous or being moral or whatever you're coping about. But when you're an neurodivergent moralstrag whose identity is predicated on taking the high ground you're going to have a completely different understanding of politics that's alien to the average bozo.

But the moral high ground is supporting Israel?

I'm sorry about your dread Ms. Oates. I'm sure there will be other Arabs to take up the mantle of Israeli-slaying when the Palestinian freedom fighters are all gone.

By virtue of high turnover, todays Palestinians have prolly committed less atrocities on average than todays Israelis.

The Israelis deserved it, and there's no real argument to be made in their defense.
