Only my perspective, but Palestine while certainly an issue, it's not as big an issue as in the US. The EU did not park an aircraft carrier on the shore of Gaza to support Israel, and while policy positions slide back and forth, the initial response was mostly a call for ceasefire. The US is the sole country that has been consistently supporting Israel.

Ukraine is a much bigger thing because of its proximity and because we back a horse in the race. And neither of them are as big as housing or cost of living or climate change, apparently.

I see. Yeah that makes sense.
