Saving 1-2 million people from genocide seems like a worthy cause for EU dollars.

We're saving ca 10 million people from the actual genocide the Arabs have been trying to perpetrate against Israel since at least 1948.

There is no genocide, attempted or not, in the other direction. In fact, the IDF has a non-combatant/combatant casualty ratio of around 1.2 : 1, which is by far the best (lowest) in the world. Typical is around 10:1.

What about the ethnic cleansing they are currently planning? That used to be considered a no-no, now I guess it's just fine.

It's really not that hard to achieve a casualty ratio of 1.2:1 if you consider groups like <1-year-old babies and patients on life support as 'active combatants'.
