Middle eastern counties only donate a fraction of what UNRWA needs. Why is there so little support of Palestinians when these countries have so much oil money? EU and NA contribute the bulk of the money…

Its complex but bottom line is those countries are run by tyrants and dictators who don’t feel a need to adhere to the wish of the people, their main goal is enriching themselves and they have the military might to deal with any civilian uprising.

Make no mistake the people of those countries fully support Palestine but are powerless to force their government’s to act out on that support and if they protest, they might get gunned down in the streets, this obviously suits the west just fine as they support Israel and they dont want a united Muslim front against Israel and many of these tyrants are dependant on the west, some of them are literally only alive because of western support, others were appointed by western nations as they are good lapdogs.
