> “If anything”

This is an important clause here. It means that they do not believe that pro-Israel views are prioritised but __if__ any it is the case that there are prioritised views are pro-Palestinian views.

Now, you could argue that this is a bad faith rhetorical device but it is not “explicitly stating that they believe pro-Palestinian views are prioritised”.

However it is utter nonsense because they offer no support for either being prioritized.

Of course pro-Israel views can be prioritized and still be in the minority.

Politically, we know the bias of the Western ruling class is aggressively pro-Israel. This indisputable knowledge that means the most likely platform bias is pro-Israel.

How do you figure? Who is the ruling class? Are you talking about media? Politicians? Members of the upper class?

I don’t think what you’ve mentioned is indisputable or really backed by facts.
