So why don't Arab countries that surround both them and Israel agree to help them?

Israel shares the region with 22 members of the Arab League with Lebanon and Syria directly to the north and Egypt to the southwest and Jordan to the east.
Notice how many Arab nations in the region are not on the side of "Palestinians" but keep mostly silent - they know all too well, from their own histories - who is actually trying (and so far failing) to commit genocide.
They know, unlike many in the West, that what is good for innocent Palestinian people (peace and trade with Israel, not "From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free [from Israel and Jews]") is not good for their corrupt Iran's puppet leadership / terrorist gangs (ironically aka "Resistance / freedom fighters") in Gaza, West Bank, Lebanon etc. Many "Palestinian refugees" are "undesirables" from nearby Arab states.
Egypt and Jordan have been "living side by side" and trading with Israel for decades, several Arab states just signed peace and trade treaties, and the Saudis were about to do the same. So Iran (not Arab country) pulled the trigger to stop the "peace process" from completion.

|------- The Palestinians can only blame themselves for antagonizing their Arab brothers... The Palestinians have been spitting in the face of the Arab countries, while at the same time expecting these countries to continue funding them.
The Palestinians receive a lot of lip service from the Arabs, but see hardly any money being channeled to their coffers in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Consequently, for the past few decades the Palestinians have become almost entirely dependent on American and European taxpayer money. ...
The Arabs are clearly not as nave as the Americans and Europeans, who are continuing to pour millions of dollars annually on the Palestinians...
Had the Palestinians welcomed the many peace accords between Israel and the Arab states instead of condemning them and bad-mouthing the Arab leaders, they would have been in a much better situation today...
The Palestinian leadership, by contrast, is happy to fail its people by indoctrinating generation after generation with bloodlust for Jews. ...
The truth is that most of the Arab countries long ago turned their backs on the Palestinians. ... It is ironic that while the European Union recently announced its decision to resume unconditional financial aid to the Palestinians, the Arab countries continue to completely ignore the Palestinians. It is also ironic that while the Biden administration continues to talk about providing financial aid to the Palestinians, the Arab countries do not seem to care at all about their Palestinian brothers in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. ...
The Arabs are apparently not only fed up with the Palestinian leadership, but also with international organizations and agencies that help the Palestinians. Arab financial aid to the United Nations Relief and Work Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) has dropped by 90% in the past few years.
... prominent Kuwaiti journalist Ahmed Al-Jarallah explained why he and many others are fed up with the Palestinians. "We are the only ones who rescued them [Palestinians] in 1970 when they launched their war on Jordan. The late Sheikh Saad Al-Abdullah evacuated their leader Yasser Arafat from Amman..."
