Emotional theatrics aside, we've had a strong partnership but we are also on opposite sides in other conflict theaters. It's a marriage of convenience for now but things can change tom.

Hearing about Indians fight for Israel is the height of the servile colonial mentality. Jews aren't flocking to fight in Kahsmir. The proper way to think about this is to let them weaken so it gives you more leverage in the partnership.
After seeing Akshrdham/ 9-11 etc etc in last 2 decade the Indians know very well how it feels to be slaughtered even in your own city. Similarly the well aware one also knows how timely Israeli help during Kargil war saved lots of Indian Blood.
You can mock it with your global gyyan of "servile colonial mentality" or whatever but average Hindus do connect with pains & sufferings of Israelis.
You didn't highlight "Jews aren't flocking to fight in Kashmir." This is the crux of the issue, but you are still doing emotional theatrics. Supporting your partner in an official capacity is fine so long as it supports your own interests. This can range from selling arms, supplying intelligence, troops, etc. But this PEOPLE PLEASING mentality from some of the common people to fight in a foreign land for a foreign religion is SERVILE and IDIOTIC. I don't see this mentality in ANY OTHER people and it is a COLONIAL HANG UP. Their people will support from a distance and count their Shekels. They will never volunteer to fight our battles. So yeah, go ahead and battle hamas/hezbollah while chanting jai shree ram. I'm sure the Jews will appreciate the gesture and maybe even throw in a point and stare and snicker while uttring A-Kum.

Not just Antony Blinken from Government Machinery, the whole of Tech/Oil/Corporate/Investment Banking/MIC are run by these Jews. Our diaspora has strength in Tech services only. But these guys have real power to steer this super tanker (US).

^^ You only have to watch a few US news media channels to know how tied to the hip US and Israel are. People carrying Amriki flags and cheering when Blinken landed in in Zion. Also, the aura of Israeli invincibility has been shattered forever and it’s clear that they cannot survive a day without the support of NATO.

vimal ji,


from a song by The Ink Spots:

Into each and every life, the rain is bound to fall
But too much of that has started fallin' on mine

Now into each and every heart, some tears are gonna fall
But I know and you know, someday the sun is gonna shine

we often forget that israel is a nuclear weapons state, even though they have never reminded us

Yes, they were caught on the wrong foot but in a limited sense of the term, and the retribution will be remorseless

the israelis fought with their backs to the wall even during the six day war, and everyone learnt a lesson then, as they will even after this battle ends, and frankly, the israelis have no options left except to press on regardless.... and we know what that will entail

The post mortem/debrief at the end of the hostilities will surely be interesting for each of the parties concerned and heads not already buried will surely roll...........

BTW, weren't the amrikis invincible until right up to the very moment those two planes hit the twin towers

Israel has always been with India because they realized long ago they are in a similar situation, as Hindu India, in the Middle East. This is a common realization amongst its citizens. Despite India voting in the UN for Palestine causes, they took the long view of establishing common cause with India. Israel long ago recognized that India is the only nation that did not persecute them (the Kochy jews, the Mumbai jews). They recognized (officially) Indian soldiers who fought on behalf of the Britshits to give them their freedom and the state of Israel. Israel has supplied key weapons during India-Puke wars. Israel freely and voluntarily is sharing many defence tech (e.g. barak) with India. India's interest and Israel's interest are in synch to a large extent and though we may have differences (like Abrahamic vs Sanatan Dharma, or Israel's cozying up to China) we have a common understanding that we are unique and minority culture in an ocean of belligerent/fanatical neighbors. All of this points to why Modi quickly sided with Israel.

Bala,

You have rightly pointed out that the support for India is 'situational'.

That being said, given the current situation I cannot support either a 2 state solution or Jewish state with usurped territories.

Any 'permament peace' will reinvigorate the muslims because they will see it as a tactical victory at nibbling away territory and they will rinse and repeat for more.

Second, they will use this new found energy and direct it at the next unsettled hospot Kashmir. I would rather split the muslim mind so he doesn't have singular focus on us. Keep them off balance using the Jews. It suits our interests well.

No emotional theatrics. Just cold realities.

RoyG saar, the Cashmore problem is effectively neutered after 370 abrogation. Getting PoK back is next on the agenda and shakshgam valley (illegally ceded by the Pukes to China) from China. Aksai Chin is also on the radar for India.

Indian armed forces if given the go ahead can take out significant portions of Tibet. The PLA is a pussy army with 1 child wonders manning the posts. A concerted effort by the IA and IAF with some help by Indian Navy can accomplish the goal. With PoK gone and Tibet as neighbor India can swat its border issues in one go.

The Emir of Qatar said that if the shelling of Palestine does not stop, the country will stop supplying gas to the world .

“If the bombing of Gaza does not stop, we will cut off gas supplies to the world,” said Qatari spokesman Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.
So officially Qatar got into war. Let's see if it really does cut gas. If it cuts gas will world stop rest of the contact and trade need to be checked.

vimal ji,

It is to preclude the nuke weapon option that states like the US pitch in quickly and send carrier groups to the conflict zone while the eyeraabs are keeping well away. The second carrier group has quietened every one in the entire region

if the threat is judged to be existential and imminent, then there may well be no option open other than the nuclear option, and there just may be someone crazy enough to exercise it

there is no country that is invincible anymore, changing threats and evolving weapon systems have put paid to that myth

the hamas attack was geographically contained and limited to a smallish zone by tactics. They hit unexpectedly, wreaked death and destruction, took hostages, and disappeared back into gaza. Thereafter, their options were virtually reduced to zero.

There is something that just doesn't sit right about the whole hamas action and it somehow feels incomplete or the hamas objective was not achieved per plan

Poll Shows Catastrophic Drop Off in Support for Netanyahu
Polls are always just snapshots in time, even more so in such chaotic circumstances. But this poll from the Israeli daily Maariv paints a clear and devastating picture of initial public reactions. The results show drops for almost every party in the government and a dramatic drop for Likud, from 32 to 19 seats. In total it’s well below a majority. There is meanwhile a huge gain for the party of Benny Gantz, the former chief of staff who just joined the national unity government. That party, somewhat confusingly also called National Unity, goes from 12 seats to 41. There are a bunch of other changes but those are the key ones.

I want to stress again that more than your average poll you can’t by any means draw a line from this to some hypothetical future election. You’re taking a poll in the midst of a vast shock to the political system and a non-trivial physical dislocation of the population. More than half a million reservists have been called to active duty; people are spending time in shelters; whole communities in the south have been evacuated, etc.

But what this shows pretty clear is that the current government has not benefited at all from the current crisis. On the contrary there’s a major backlash against the current government and a big surge of support for the opposition, especially Benny Gantz’s centrist/ex-general-heavy party.

The world will forget the palestinians just like they did rohingya. The islamic world is finished and this again proves it.

The muslims are now just cannon foder in a grand proxy war between SCO and Western Alliance.

The deeper game behind this mischief could be to rally Muslim support to dynamite the US presence in Iraq.

In the past I wrote about how that would be a potential deathblow move against US and facilitate a quicker GCC slide toward a basket of currencies for oil.

Some like Bhagat Singh did not get an opportunity to grow out of it. Others today, whether it be Sadhguru, or Professor Balagangadhara (much cited in J. Sai Deepak's works) grew beyond it. People outgrow their student-day idiocy. So be measured in your criticism of these students.

I'm not saying don't criticize them. But try to make it so that they grow out of their nonsense instead of being permanently crushed.
the quickest way to deradicalize them is to deny jobs to a few of them and the rest will get wisdom.

Blinken warning that Azerbaijan could invade Armenia in the coming weeks.

I think we are seeing the final meltdown before the deathblow.

This will make it 5 hotspots. Central Africa, Sinai, Eurasia, Ukraine, and US occupation of Syria.

I had theorized that the SCO could start fires around the world to exhaust US military forces before main event.

Will Iraq be next?

I am also predicting that China will incapacitate Taiwan. The objective may not be to occupy it, at least initially.

Someone knowledgeable can give a better explanation, but I am guessing “companions” may refer to companions of one of the gurus or maybe “Companions of the Prophet” which is a “thing.”
