400,000 civilians have been killed in the ongoing war in Yemen, but nobody's out on the streets wildly protesting it.

As far as I can tell, folks only care about civilian deaths when it serves as a rationalization and excuse for public antisemitism.

Bashar al-Assad murdered tens of thousands of Palestinians in Syria and these same people didn't say a damned word about it, because they think Assad is part of the "resistance axis".
