Morocco's moment
MOROCCO'S MOMENT
Morocco's successful run in the World Cup has united, at least for the moment, a Middle East racked by many political divisions. Most striking is the love fest between Palestinians and the Moroccan team, even after the Moroccan government normalized ties with Israel as part of the 2020 Abraham Accords.
The Moroccan team waved a Palestinian flag after its victory over Spain last week, thrilling Palestinians. Throughout the tournament, the Palestinian flag has been unfurled all over, carried by Arab fans and some non-Arabs — so much so that the running joke is that Palestine is the 33rd team at the World Cup.
