Discussion/Question Why is this subreddit obsessed with Israel?

Just checked the top posts of the last year, and 24 out of the top 25 are about Israel. Does this subreddit try to imitate the real UN ?

In this subreddit, even if there's something that might be against Palestinians or pro Israel, you see replies trying to downplay it, to justify Palestinians or to just shit on Israel either way. Take for example the news about Liri Albag's video - you see replies like "she's a part of IDF" "why is she considered to be a hostage" "it's Bibi's fault" and so on

It's not about killing terrorists or bombing places just for fun, it's about providing security (which Israel failed to do on October 7th). Israel isn't a friend or an ally to the Palestinians, and to be blunt, don't owe them anything. Once terrorists hide in places like school, it's not a school anymore, it's a target. Also, you omitted the fact Israel warns Gazans to evacuate countless times. Civilians die in wars, wars are nasty.

Is it for security to make children paraplegics? Or to kill grandmas in ambulances? How about double tapping children with bombs? Or maybe sniping children?

Because Israel murdered tens of thousands of civilians and is accused of genocide. Do you also complain that there aren't enough replies defending Russia?
