What am I missing about Israel? Why have they been, not even enabled by most of the globe, but emboldened, to obliterate Gaza, and now start to do the same to Iran?

It’s one thing to do all this in the name if religion, self-defence, money, etc. But not one thing I have read seems to even give a solid reason as to why the western world has been largely supportive of them seemingly using every dirty trick in the book, and even inventing new ways, to bypass or flagrantly ignore international laws on war.

The amount of information pointing to complete and total annihilation of large swaths of civilized areas in Gaza seems staggering. Couple that with forced starvation, aid blocking, torture and execution of civilians, and we’ve got war crimes on steroids.

Now, they are seemingly encouraged to do the same to Iran?

Like I said, the reasoning is mind-boggling, but articles about active suppression of any entity that speaks out about this is just downright scary. In what were considered more civilized societies, with free speech and democratic core values, I’ve read chilling pieces on crackdowns on anyone not siding with Israel. Others pointing fingers at public figures for a remark against them. Some even loosing their jobs. Why?

Is the information I am reading just propaganda?

Can someone please explain what I am missing here?
