Israel’s strike on the Jabalia refugee camp has led to more intense pushback from the Biden administration.

Ukraine and Palestine are the equals in this scenario not Ukraine and Israel
I think their point was, the US supports Isreal and Ukraine, but Ukraines support was conditional on them waging a humane war in self defense, but Isreal has no such restrictions, and the US has been incredibly slow to question them.
Edit - NM, re-read. It’s simpler than that. Ukraine defending itself - good. Hamas defending itself (from a US ally) - bad.
It does kind of stretch “defending themselves” a bit far if it lumps the initial attack. Like, I get how you could somewhat justify it by saying it was the result of decades of apartheid oppression, but targeting innocents isn’t exactly a great way go about that, and why most instantly rallied behind Ukraine after Russia started their war by indiscriminately targeting civilians as well.
