That’s definitely not the case. Where I live almost everyone supports Ukraine uncritically (less than a couple years ago, but still) while opinion on Israel is much more divided but generally in favor of Palestine. Even a majority of european, generally extremely pro-imperialist governments voted in the UN for a ceasefire. There have been protests going on pretty much everywhere, which wouldn’t have happened in a million years in response to the Ukraine war.
The response has been undeniably more lukewarm than the jingoistic fevor that happened when the Russia-Ukraine war begun.
I don’t think it is, at the start there were pro Israel points pushed by the media, but all I’ve seen from mainstream news since about it has been highlighting the atrocities commited by the IDF. Among my workplace, a massive wealthy organization, I have seen numerous pro-Palestinian statements and art, and nothing explicitly supportive of Israel.
Compare this to the Ukraine war, supporting Russia or even being neutral on the topic is highly controversial among circles I’ve interacted with since the Russian offensive. It is really only among the most potent left spaces, like hexbear, that I see really any doubt about the holy righteousness of Ukraine.

Damn maybe its my own perception that is skewed
