Honestly? I only think Israel is such a hip issue because a) it's not cut-and-dry, which means it's controversial and b) it involves Jews. The Palestinians have a legitimate cause, of which Israeli oppression is a large part -- but Israel's still just one issue of many. Honestly, it smacks of racist condescension to me. "The Israelis are Westerners who know right from wrong, so they should know not to be oppressive dickwads. But the Arabs are backward and uneducated -- the don't know any better!"

You never hear hardcore "pro-Palestinians" complaining about how Lebanon treats its Palestinian population, for example. And whenever I point out their hypocrisy, they accuse me of trying to deflect criticism away from Israel. As if it's impossible to criticize both Israel and Lebanon at the same time.
