Because making "hating Israel" a litmus test is pretty weird. Explain to me why opposing the existence of the most pleasant middle eastern country is somehow a sine qua non for opposing the establishment.
You do know that EU political classes hate Israel, right? They send hundreds of millions to those terrorist enclaves. I guess they're against THE MAN, man.
We've already been over this. Israel needs to dump Muslims somewhere. That's going to be countries where it has influence. Solution? Deny it any.
Then, there's the more generalized concerns about corruption and malfeasance that arise from foreign lobbyists power and influence. In other words, immigration is but one case where doing what Israel needs hurts us.

That EU political class that criminalizes Holobunga denial and bans pro-Palestinian protests is really sticking it to Israel. 🙄

I know this is the weird thing that you believe, but it's not happening. It's not like Azerbaijan that can just ethnically cleanse without anyone saying anything.
And if they're going to be 'dumped', they'll be dumped in Jordan, Syria or Egypt, not Europe.

That is a more generic complaint about lobbies, of which there are many. That is not a reason to oppose the existence of the state of Israel.
By the way, what will happen if Israel is destroyed? All those Jews you love will become your neighbors.

Link doesn't work for me, but I think I know what you're talking about. And yes, they would not even suspend 'aid' for Gaza after October 7. So I'm still paying for Hamas salaries.
The funny thing is, this is probably an infinitely larger part of the EU budget than is Israel aid for the American budget, but I hear no end of complaints about the latter.

It's what they want. It will be a test of their influence and power both in terms of politics and military.

Israel doesn't wield nearly as much influence over those countries so I wouldn't be so sure. Our DHS Secretary is a Jew who was on the board of HIAS. You've seen Biden's overall immigration policy at work. We even have """right-wingers""" like Breitbart editor Joel Pollak shilling for it. It's not looking good. It has "GOP throws the fight" written all over it, but an even more pozzed country might eat that grenade instead.
Israel wanted Hamas to be funded, remember? The aid going into there is only needed because of Israel in the first place. This is just them dumping the burden of taking care of those people (and funding Hamas, assuming they are indeed getting that money) onto us.
ETA: Israel wouldn't exist without said lobby. Not every country is like that.
"everything"
It's two positions, bro.
I didn't know there wouldn't be more.
