It's because on the surface it's an interracial conflict (it's not really, I guess, but that is the perception for most), and lots of people are obsessed over racial dynamics and analyzing history through that lens.

There are so many other conflicts going on with many more dead, but if it's not interracial then somehow it is not talked about.

This is an insane take. First of all, the Uighur genocide by China is an interracial conflict, and second of all, it is a racial conflict, how can you say it is not? The Palestinians are on ethnicity of people and the Israelis are another. Even the "Arab Israelis" are the few Palestinians who were given what all Palestinians want, freedom and citizenship, and their homes back.

Yeah it's a silly take, tbh. To clarify I just mean that's the reason people pay attention. That's why there's the colonizer narrative going on that fuels a lot of teh protests. But yeah it's more complicated than just that.
