Morocco's World Cup success gives Arab youth a much-needed morale boost

Morocco's team has won the World Cup. The team's foreign-born players come from six different countries. Their parents are the most important part of their success. The Palestinian cause has been omnipresent in the stadiums and on the streets during this tournament. Ramadan hopes Arab leaders will unite the region like the Emir of Qatar did during the FIFA World cup. He hopes it will be the same for the Arab world. It is a common narrative in an Arab World riddled with growing youth unemployment, ballooning inflation, rising poverty rates and political violence.
