“When my fiancee made inquiries, she was told that I was rejected because I am from Gaza,” Hassan said. “I met people from the West Bank in Qatar, who have been able to get tourist visas for Oman.

Israel discovers it's not as welcome in the Middle East as it believes 

The enormous support shown for Palestine at the World Cup prompted the Brazilian writer Daniel Mundim to devote an entire article to Palestine, described as the 33rd contestant in the tournament.

Palestine, “the nation that fights for a recognition that has already come in football,” he wrote in Brazil’s O Globo newspaper, “is the one that unites the Arab countries in the World Cup.”

For Palestinians, meanwhile, the footage of Arab youth telling Israeli journalists there is no Israel, only Palestine, engenders hope and relief that the true identity of the Arab people persists.

Palestinians are not alone in facing the Zionist project even if Arab support is currently limited to the moral sphere.
