    What I find depressing is that most of the Arab world thinks so, but the majority of people from Gaza don’t.

    It clearly shows that Arabs don’t care about fellow Palestinians suffering, and the only thing that matters is that they fucked up lives of some Jews.

      Arabs aren’t one people. They’re many different tribes. They’ve been fighting as long as the historical record. So them not caring about the Palestinians is not surprising but obvious.

      All arabs remember Jordan September 1970 so nobody trusts the Palestinians one bit and rather prefer they die against the Israeli than their own citizens. They got expelled to Lebanon after Jordan and sparked civil war there for decades and then finally getting expelled in 1991.

      So if you wonder why the neighbouring Arab countries don’t care. There’s your answer.

      I wonder if they were against the Oct 7th attacks before realizing Israels response was more extreme than previous responses.

      Gazens usually say what the stronger side wants to hear.
