  1. No offence, but how did you gain the ability to read the minds of over a billion people? India’s ties with Israel have overwhelming support in India in all sections of society except for maybe Muslims where the support tends to be lower. It would be prudent not to make such sweeping remarks about a people you don’t seem to be familiar with.

    1. Did you read the article? The author reports in Al Jazeera that this is a major change in government policy that historically had been sympathetic to the Palestinians. I am not referring to the Indian masses, I’m only referring to the recent policy changes in its governmental regimes. As far as what Indian masses want, I doubt it has much to do with government policy – just as around the world masses of people do not control geopolitical moves of their governments. You are the one claiming to know what masses of Indians want, that is that they are pro-Israel. You say: “India’s ties with Israel have overwhelming support in India in all sections of society except for maybe Muslims where the support tends to be lower.” Kindly read the entire article.
