Whether one supports the Israelis or Palestinians or Russia or Ukraine is a tribal political marker. Generally pro-Israel and pro-Ukraine is the establishment position, including neoliberals and neocons, pro-Palestine and pro-Ukraine are normie progressives/woke libs, pro-Palestine and pro-Russia are Third Wordlists, such as Tankies as well as Third Positionists, and pro-Israel and pro-Russia are primarily MAGA, or perhaps Russian Israelis.

The pro-Palestinian side includes anti-globalists and anti-imperialists but also normie woke liberals, such as Al Jazeera, AOC and MSNBC’s Mehdi Hasan. Obviously Black Lives Matter and Antifa types supports the Palestinians. The Russia/Ukraine issue is what divides the two camps. There are woke Zionists as well, like the ADL, which has become an Alt-Right meme. The split between the centrist liberal totalitarian humanists and left-wing anti-imperialists/Third Worldists over Gaza might have significant political ramifications.
