When it comes to Israel, polling was always lower in younger populations, although yes - the trend worsened.

Israel chose to trade popularity for having real geopolitical gains on the ground. Popularity could be won back later, but removing the Iranian ring of fire around it is a real and tangible achievement that would last decades and change the Middle East.

You make it sound as if Israel merely made a few PR blunders.. They’ve killed 10s of thousands of Palestinian children.

This is not salvageable without justice and accountability.

Do Palestinians have to be held accountable for their actions?

No. Any other questions, or do you want to just continue feigning interest in having an actual conversation?

This is an actual question. It seems to me that you only care about Arabs dying. Jews can die left and right in the hands of Arabs and you won’t blink an eye. Am I correct?

I just want to clarify it for others who reads your comments to see.

I think most of the sane public understands that Israel was aggressive in Gaza but did not deliberately target children. The reality is that you can't conduct a war in Gaza without hurting civilians because its such a densely populated place, and the lines between civilians and combatants barely exist. So either you accept it and move on, or you grant Hamas an immunity (which was pretty much the situation until October 7th). Given that, it's not clear what justice and accountability you are looking for. Are you looking to investigate each child death as a murder case? Do a Nuremberg style trials for Israeli leaders?

The world will move on, because most accept while this was bad - doing nothing was even worse.

		Not really sure what to say here. Maybe it’s a lack of empathy or imagination because the victims are Palestinians? Perhaps a good thought experiment would be to swap out Israel and Palestine with some other similar (real or fictional) conflict to help you think through your apparent confusion.
