There has to be a word for this phenomenon: no matter the conversation, someone always finds a way to bring it back to israel/palestine.

Maybe so, but this isn't so far fetched. Tim Cook is making public statements on human rights and their infringement by the state. His company is making substantial investments in Israel (in the hundreds of millions to billions range) and has had meetings with Netanyahu as a result - a politician who doesn't have a particularly subjective position - his position on Gaza and such is fairly concrete and described above.

So yes, we could ask, is Tim Cook a champion of human rights violations by the state against some or all repressed individuals?
