Because it is a universally accepted undisputed fact that all of Israel's neighbors are anti-Semitic to various degrees from "problematic" to "would eagerly initiate a new holocaust if tried".
Everyone agrees on this, and that it is a problem.
But there is no consensus on Israel. The two most common stances are "Israel is an apartheid state, and commits repeated human right violations" and "Israel is a beacon of democracy in an otherwise troubled region, and should be supported unconditionally regardless of their action".
I actually find the latter stance much more problematic. Because they make it seem as if the only alternative to supporting Israel unconditionally is to allow it to be wiped off the map by their enemies.
Maybe I'm naive, but I feel like there is a way that Israel could coexist with Palestine in peace, while still defending its integrity.
