Israel Conflict: Who's Generation cares more?

Hi Guys, I am a millennial and I really don't feel like I have a connection to the Israeli conflict. I feel more tied to the Afghanistan conflict or the Ukraine conflict as those have happened in my lifetime. The Israel conflict has been going on in the background before I was cognizant of politics and in pop culture it's always been the joke that it's unsolvable or I do not talk about topic. Which generation do you think has the most interest in the Israel Conflict?

Expounding on western seeding of terror in future generations

Many have cited the youthfulness of Gaza along with the populations incapacity to leave the country or safely seek refuge in international humanitarian aid shelters due to direct and indirect bombings as a tragic aspect of this conflict that will undoubtedly result in many child casualties, but it is also a fact contributing and compounding future radicalization of the next generation in the region. On this specifically: 1. As individuals close to and in contact with Washington insiders, is this at all being seen by officials in Congress or their staff, and if so, is their any way to interpret the hyper inflammatory words of those like Marco Rubio and and Mitch McConnel as anything but knowingly advocating for wide scale and indiscriminate slaughter, some would say calls for genocide, to prevent this generation from coming to fruition, thus essentially taking the stance of "mowing the lawn" further than ever before, rather better analogized as pulling the grass from the roots and completely overturning the soil they once sat upon? 2. The radicalization of generations seen in the middle east after American wars seems to have a transverse parallel of the new western generations born after 9/11 in a sense being deradicalized away from neocon empire building government rhetoric. We have already seen a quite heterogeneous yet predominantly critical response by Israeli citizens towards their governments past and current actions/lack of actions in the face of seemingly ample warnings, but would y'all expect to see a shift in politics in Israel that would reflect a similar shift in internal politics as seen in the west towards softening their past positions on inflammatory actions that have contributed to building the malice of Palestinians? Apologies if any of the framing of my question comes off as one sided, this is not my intention and there are ferocious and violent actors on the side of Palestinian support, both Hamas and their fervent supporters within the population, but it is clear to me that a lot of this is downstream from modern Israeli policy, and thus in a sense I feel it is right that the Palestine should be framed as the more passive actors less capable of effectively garnering change internally than many attempt to cast them as being able to.
