Surprising nobody:

“Even with the policy victories coming under a Republican president, the lobby still remained staunch Democratic contributors, giving more than $14.8 million in the 2018 midterms to mostly Democrats. This marked their third-biggest cycle ever and their biggest non-presidential cycle.”
Until there’s a pro-Palestine lobby with the same influence, power, and most importantly, money as the pro-Israel lobby, nothing will change.
"AIPAC Targets Progressives With $100 Million in Its Coffers
Members of The Squad and other progressives running in Democratic primaries are targets of the pro-Israel group largely funded by Republicans and Trump donors"
Palestine is quite literally dirt poor, they aren’t going to be funding anything. The diaspora might, but it’s no match for Israeli state funding.
The only reason there was any fighting back in the territories is the external funding and weapons supplied from nearby countries who wanted to damage Israel.
These other countries don’t actually care about Palestinians though, the suffering is actually beneficial to weakening Israel politically so they’re not going to try to make changes to improve the situation.
And, unfortunately, politics is all about the money.
No but genocides are okay when it’s the Israelites doing them…
So what, next it’s gonna be okay when it’s the surviving Palestinians doing the genocides?
The previous genocide wasn’t done by Jews, and barely anyone noticed.
And the chair is reopening a dialogue because the panel’s vote didn’t match the wishes of Dem voters…
This is a loss for Israel, the person with unilateral control of the party just overrode a committee because they weren’t hard enough on Israel.
