Israel can survive without India. This is a fact.
And the same holds true for India..
I think I made this crystal clear in my last comment that India's relation with Israel is mutually beneficial
As to your point about changes in relations between nation’s states this is only partly true. America will never abandon Israel; the defense of Israel is a key part of the national debate in even the Presidential elections. Obama and Hagel may have toned it down somewhat, but Israel’s special relationship with America will always remain. For better or for worse.
That may very well be true in the case of Israel no denying that, but still doesnt take away from the fact that the US has turned its back on some of its former allies..
One can only learn from history...
As for Israel not providing you something you cannot get elsewhere, that is a two-way street.
So then why the arrogance? We both know that survival of either country is not based on the sale of military hardware to India..
Israel can easily take its markets elsewhere as well. Remember Israel doesn’t need your “economic fuel,” as much as you need Israel’s advance military equipment.
What India needs or does not, is not for you to decide...so best for you to stay away from this line of argument
**** off 1/6 of the world’s population? Israel has pissed off more than that. They’ve continuously pissed off about 2 billion Muslims, so yes, they can live with pissing you off. Again you overstate your worth and value.
I stand by my statement...One cannot have enough friends in geo-politics, especially when you're in a toxic environment such as that of Israels..
Finally to your last point North Korea also has Nuclear weapons and a ten million man army, yet when it says something it has more weight than anything India says.
For the same reason one pays heed to a terrorists' demands...
I dont see how this demonstrates India's position in the world..
You can barely take on your neighbors, even with your massive size and population.
Well the US for all its claims of being a superpower with the greatest military on earth lost out in the Koreas, Vietnam and Afghanistan...
Seems we arent alone here...
Oh and you were never “neutral.” You should do some historical reading into your nations history, you served the Soviets, and you picked your sides. You directly opposed us in Afghanistan, supporting the Communists.
Because it served our interest..
We signed a treaty of Friendship and Cooperation with the USSR only because we were being threatened by the US and China and it served our interest in '71..
Similarly, we supported the communist movement, followed by the northern alliance to allow for an india friendly afghanistan...
Officially, we are and have been non-aligned...
You mention Pakistan and Cuba, yet they both will be better off after what we do to you.
And pray tell what is that?
Remember you are nothing more than cannon fodder for us against China.
And you seem to be under the impression that India will be doing US's bidding when dealing with China...
You need to tone down the arrogance and realize that India will work for its own interests...and if that entails going to war, its to settle our scores...NOT YOURS!
Israel, and Western Europe, run by our dictation, your “economic boom,” is reliant upon us. When we pull the plug India goes back to the 7th Century.
You will serve your purpose and be cut down in time.
Clearly I was right when I said that Israel (or for that matter any country in the world) needs as many friends as it can...
Americans it seems treat inter-state relations, trade and cooperation like a game of risk..
Your statement above demonstrates exactly the kind of attitude that makes nations wary of being close to the US...
Finally, maybe you should brush up on your spelling and grammar, don’t insult my language. And oh, seeing as how your true loyalties lie with India, maybe you should move back there? We don’t need you here.
I dont think anyone asked, nor cares about your views on the above, so best stick to the topic..
PS: Didnt know English was invented in the US...
