I understand the sentiment, but I think it distracts from the urgent issue. Right now, surely the important thing is for Israel to stop massacring civilians is Gaza. People on either side are more likely to sign on to that. If you make it contingent on any particular solution to the greater conflict then you’ll just make people dig in to their held opinions.
By supporting Israel, the US government lost all its credibility to talk about war crimes and human rights in the future. This has always been this way but the general public is much more aware of the hypocrisy now.
