Wikipedia, for lack of a quicker source, lists seven major wars (including Israel/Hamas) currently ongoing, fourteen mid-sized conflicts (1,000 to 9,999 deaths last year), and twenty-one less active "skirmishes and clashes."
Would you like Upwork to take a stand on every one of those ongoing conflicts? And how would Upwork judge each one according to moral, political, humanistic standards? What would be the criteria for support or for opposition?
As a reminder, Russia is the aggressor and instigator of the Russia/Ukraine war. Hamas is the aggressor and instigator of the Hamas/Israel war, not Israel. Beyond that, as this conflict demonstrates, it is not always easy to seperate the civilian population from the military one. With certain wars, the battlefield and the civilian areas are easily separated. That's not the case in Gaza. But who's fault is that?
I am 100 percent sympathetic to the political mess Palestinians are in. But when an army plans and executes a suprise attack, killing 1,200 and taking 200 hostages, then hides in tunnels built under hospitals and residential areas, my sympathies are currently on hold.
