The Palestinian struggle has long been an accepted moto in Arab/Muslim narrations and continues to be used to this day to mobilize the populace. However, given the changing Middle East landscape, the power and ability to influence of this slogan is increasingly diminishing towards complete extinction.
For the Palestinians, their trials and tribulations have only intensified. Even today, Israel continues to bomb the Gaza Strip on an almost daily basis. Israeli settlement expansion continues unabated. In the past month alone, there have been plans to add 6205 settlement units on Palestinian land.[1]According to the World Bank, the Palestinian economy is estimated to shrink by almost 8 percent this year as it struggles in the backdrop of the Covid-19 pandemic. Unemployment in the West Bank and Gaza is at 18.2% and 48.5% respectively.[2]
