Kids being murdered is just as awful in Palestine, as it is in Africa, Asia, the Americas or anywhere else in the world. But, at what point does the rest of the world get to run out of "fucks" to give about their conflicts.
I think the US should absolutely stop giving money to Israel, there seems to be no benefit at all and it supports their genocide. But I also see no reason to actually support Palestine. The current conflict can be traced back to the October attacks, but then those attacks can be traced back to some attacks Israel did and back and forth until you get to the Old Testament and probably before that.
It's a religious conflict that won't go away unless you remove religion from it. I don't expect that to happen during my lifetime so I'd rather we just pull the tax dollars out of the region.
This isn't some deep seated religious conflict. The few Jews and other people's lived largely in peace under the ottoman empire. Modern Israel is a joint US and European imperialist settler project where the founders of that movement outright said they intend to take over the area for their ethnostate.
Most of the problems in the middle east can be traced back to European and American meddling.
