I'm sure tons of people see it as revenge for videos of Palestinians and allies photographed in front of an Israeli flag by the Israeli police.

Or the videos of Palestinians blindfolded in Gaza, on a bus, being told to sing praises to Israel. Obviously, forced to do so by IOF.

The Maccabi football hooligans were chanting 'd---- to Ar--s' - so that reductiveness which is common in Israel, where people refer to Palestinians as Arabs and not as Palestinians, happened first.

So people will absolutely revel in these petty fights because there is no comeuppance elsewhere.

In some of the videos, the anger being expressed is so obviously due to the ongoing genocide.

EDIT:

Correction re: the bus video. They were not forced to sing/chant there (or I'm thinking of a different video). But in another instance, men were stripped and forced to sing against Hamas.
