Well for me it goes all the way back to the forceful creation of the state of Israel, so you're talking to the wrong guy. However in modern times, I think the Gaza blockade and regular "wars" against it, the general mistreatment of Palestinians residing in Israel, the attempts at taking full control of Al Aqsa Mosque, and the general racism towards Arabs exhibited by Israeli leaders over the years are good enough reasons for me to put Israel in the spotlight compared to the USA or Russia.

But I still agree with your sentiments regarding the Gulf countries, the US, and Russia. I just believe that the shameful actions they are perpetrating are of a different nature. To that list I'd add Iran.

I figured you were an Arab Muslim. FYI, Israel has affirmative action where Arabs have a lower standard of admission into medical schools, for example; "racism", perhaps, but of a different sort (which is not to say that no Israelis exist who are racist, just that most aren't and that the state isn't, at least not in comparison to most others.) Where you heard about taking control of Al Aqsa I can only guess; of course 99.99% of Israelis don't want it nor did the state ever attempt it and we let the Waqf destroy Jewish and Muslim archeological artefacts alike as they please there. In general Israel is the hundredth probem on the list of any Arab state, and putting it closer to #1 by singling it out as the one state to be excluded from supply chains etc. is IMO unlikely to help with the first 99. But then again I'm more than a little biased...
