Why india doesn’t support Israel on Palestine.
reasons:
“The Republic of India” is not a person but a sovereign state and so it cannot take decision emotionally but strategically. Let’s take an objective view of why we cannot support Israel even though we have changed our stance from staunch opposition to Neutral.
1. Kashmir Angle: Israel came into existence in 1948 after getting Palestinian’s land fighting with Arabs countries, So basically they are occupier (in their defence it was given to them by British and later UNO due to persecution of jews in world war 2 but only 44% of Palestine). Later also they occupied lands of Palestine(it is reduced to 12% of its original), Syria, Jordan, Egypt etc. Pakistan has also occupied Kashmir in 1948, so they are Illegal Occupier and If we want the support of UNO we cannot stand with another occupier as it will dilute our case.
2. India Supports UNO’s “Two Nation Theory”: In 1947 UNO proposed two-nation theory, where Israel was happy Arabs were not, so they fought in 1947–1948 and they had to agree on papers. After that also Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Palestine with the monetary help of Saudi Arab, Qatar, Bahrain etc (most Arabs countries) on one side fought with Israel in 1967, 1969, 1973 and so on till the 1990s, where they kept on losing the fight and their land. Earlier Arabs opposed but now they support 2 Nation Theory since they have lost their own land along with of Palestines’ 80%(8% with UNO). India has a clear stand where it has supported UNO’s two-nation theory since the start.
3. Secular Country with over 30 crores Muslims: India respects all religion and people of all faith are living here for thousands of year. Palestinian Muslims pain cannot be ignored as it can lead to protest in our country by our Muslim brothers who have a religious connection with Palestine, that we want to avoid.
4. Arab Ties: India has good relations with almost all Arab Nation having millions of Indians are working in their countries. The largest chunk of remittance comes from here only. We do not want to anger them by siding with their enemy.
5. Israel Don’t care about UNO Resolutions: UNO is the biggest SHAM after world war 2 where it proclaims to protect weak countries but the truth is countries which either are not powerful or don’t have powerful friends are left to the mercy of those who are. Israel knows that USA will always use Veto in UNSC for Israel and other resolution which are non-binding won’t affect much, so they keep on making fun of UNO resolution.
Even though India publicly does not support Israel but there has been a lot of improvement in their ties(Mr Modi being the first PM to visit Israel in 2017 since the creation of Israel). As being a democratic republic, they understand each other’s Foreign policy and that’s why Israel is India’s major strategic partner and they don’t value relation on mere emotion and public appearances.
