People there a genuinely fed up with what Israel-the-State did, does and means, but it's universal, unconditional backing makes any objection ignored or even presecuted, that pushes them even further in their speech when they have a place to vent about it. Most (I heartly assume) won't even think of supporting a random bombing of civilians in Israel, but IDF headquarters, Pegasus developers' office may be seen as a fair game, since it is a matter of a personal choice. And these plans of Nvidia to build a facility there aren't far from that, this company is collaborating and supporting whatever that exact state does. That puts a stain on every entity that knowingly wants to profit off that, from contractors to employees many of whom have career options elsewhere.

For Israel, inviting more and more companies on their ground brings them leverage, importance, legitimizes their landgrabs on international level and makes these facilities essentially a hostage, attack on which would be seen as extremely unacceptable. For Nvidia it's, probably, an undisclosed agreement about price rates for land, resources, maybe an untapped recruiting potential, but more importantly less regulations compared to more woke countries, as everything benefitting Israel is pretty legal and nice. As Israel army and intelligence want to be on the edge of weaponizing machine learning, it makes sense these two partner up to ensure maximal efficiency in their endeavours. It is unethical to train your AI to aim a gun at brown people, but not there, and here half of the world pays for just that kind of thing.

For the war - it means, that another mega company put it's chips on the current Israeli state, so we are further and further from any sensible resolution. It's the opposite - it would feel even more empowered to do attrocities to everyone around them. And with how the situation unfolds, it's hard to imagine this state, and even the same people who populate this place to stop being the driving force behind genocides and warcrimes for it looks if not designed to be a constant peace disruptor, an avantguard of western hard power in the ME, but happens to be just that, and succeedes at that.
