Palestinians are proud of the Arab public support for their cause, which can be detected in the intermittent protests that take to the streets in solidarity with them. In October 2015, protests were staged in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Morocco to support the wave of Palestinian attacks on Israelis, which broke out early October of that year. Protests also took place in Arab countries to support Palestinians during the 2014 Israeli war on the Gaza Strip.
Public sympathy, however, outweighs the interest of the official regimes, which have been distracted from the Palestinian cause. Palestinians are worried that their cause might be losing momentum on the agendas of Arab politicians.
