      Jews can be white-passing and Israelis live a quality of life similar, if not better, than most Americans.

      Seeing Israelis get killed is almost like seeing Europeans or Americans getting killed. People from Europe and America knew people who were killed in Israel. I know people, who knew people that were killed in Israel (none myself.)

      I don’t know a single person who even knows anyone in Sudan. Like it or not, these relationships will affect a nations response to global crises.

      Israel has a sizeable Western immigrant population. 20% of Jewish Israelis are from America and Europe.

      ^ this - people keep making this assumption and it’s tiring. None of the groups involved in the conflict have European origin. Having diaspora that migrated to Europe ≠ being European or white
