Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt? I know the Gaza strip only borders Egypt as well but isn't Palestine kinda patchy? Islands in the north, Middle East, and Southwest of Israel?
When I think Palestine usually think of this map.

Israel blockades humanitarian aid from reaching Palestinians. they control all the borders.
Got it. So all four of those nations are contributing to it by not wanting to piss off Israel?
Yes because Egypt and Jordan have peace treaty. Lebanon and Syria do not but they don't border either Gaza or West bank.
