Only my perspective, but Palestine while certainly an issue, it’s not as big an issue as in the US. The EU did not park an aircraft carrier on the shore of Gaza to support Israel, and while policy positions slide back and forth, the initial response was mostly a call for ceasefire. The US is the sole country that has been consistently supporting Israel.
Ukraine is a much bigger thing because of its proximity and because we back a horse in the race. And neither of them are as big as housing or cost of living or climate change, apparently.
This is a report from a Think Tank funded by organisations with specific political slants, including the George Soros Fundation.
It looks suspiciouly like it was framed - the purpose of Think Tanks is generally to generate technocratic explanations of for pre-determined “conclusions” - and they would be highly unlikely to give relevance to anything that makes Israel look bad, and if they did, then The Guardian would not publish it, as that British newspaper is aligned with New Labour and the Libdems and was a heavy participant in the “anti-semitism” slandler campaign to see off the threat of a leftwinger - Corbyn - as Labour party leader and which was so ridiculous they implied a Jewish Holocaust Survivor was an anti-semite in order to slander Corbyn by association for having sat on a panel in a conference were said Holocaust Survivor made some negative comments about Israel.
This would also explain why concerns like Corruption aren’t mentioned in this “reporty”, even thought at least in Southern Europe that’s pretty high in people’s minds - conceens about Corruption show a broader distrust and discontentment with mainstream politics after decades of it being dominated by the kind of politics this Think Tank espouses, and cannot just be framed as being about “external agents”.
Kinda surprising Palestine isn’t one of them.

I see. Yeah that makes sense.
I guess the study was started before the Israel Palestine conflict emerged.
