To me it makes more sense realizing that this group is a mix of:
- bigots - people who irrationally hate the US, Israel or Jews
- people who have few connections with other people and want a group to belong to
- genuinely ignorant people with little to no understanding of ME history
The one thing they have in common is an unwillingness to address the holes in their argument. Example: "Israel is an apartheid state". They cannot understand that there are Israeli Arab judges putting Israeli Jewish criminals in jail, and why would any of the 2mm Israeli Arabs stay in Israel when they can leave and live in an Arab country.
After the "Palestinians" lost every war yet still refused to accept the existence of the Jewish state, they turned to a new dual strategy: terrorism and PR.
The PR was designed to emotionally manipulate gullible Westerners into seeing them as helpless victims of the Zionists, and seeing their cause as a natural extension of the modern Western secular crusade for "universal rights".
The Palis may be terrible at governing but their PR campaign has been a smashing success. They know how to play on Western white guilt and saviorism like Jimi Hendrix knew how to play guitar.

It is shocking stupidity.
