India and Israel share a common trait: hostility toward Muslims. Both are pursuing fascist policies aimed at erasing Islam and Muslims from the face of the earth. With Narendra Modi; a propagandist of the RSS, who is in power in India, their friendship has reached new heights. A clear proof of this is when Narendra Modi, the “great killer of Muslims,” stood in the Knesset (Israeli parliament) in Tel Aviv to congratulate Netanyahu on his (shameful) actions and referred to Israel as “father.”
If Israel has reduced Gaza to rubble in pursuit of a “Greater Israel” and shed the blood of oppressed Palestinians to seize Palestine, while subjecting Iran and Lebanon to aggression to fulfill expansionist ambitions, then on the other hand, Modi has turned occupied Kashmir into a prison. When 700,000 forces were not enough to suppress the freedom-seeking spirit of Kashmiris, more troops were deployed, with military watch placed across the valley. Kashmiris have been stripped of human rights and burdened with restrictions. Just as Jewish settlements are built on Palestinian land to erase Muslim identity, similarly Articles 35A and 370—guaranteeing special status to occupied Kashmir—were scrapped and the region was absorbed. Now, non-Kashmiris, especially Hindus, are being registered in large numbers to alter the Muslim majority.
Israel is an illegitimate state built on force and oppression, established through a conspiracy by seizing Palestinian land. Britain, the United States and India are all complicit in supporting Israel. Meanwhile, in occupied Kashmir, India is relying on Zionist-style military power, it is unleashing brutal oppression on defenseless Kashmiris to strengthen its aggressive hold over the region. If this Hindu-Jewish alliance succeeds in its sinister goals in Kashmir and Palestine (and to some extent, they already have—Gaza peace plan is the worst example), then it is a danger signal for the Muslims of Kashmir and Palestine that they may end up displaced and homeless like the Muslims of Burma.
The relationship between India and the usurper Israel is long-standing. Although India voted against the partition of Palestine in 1947, that later turned out to be hypocritical because in 1949, India went against its own decision and voted in favor of Israel. The Sangh Parivar (RSS family) had always supported Israel and eventually, in 1950, India officially recognized Israel.
Israel is continuously working to complete its unholy plan to dominate the entire Middle East, backed by the blessings of the so-called superpower America; the worst example of which the world has already seen in Gaza. Similarly, in Modi and the RSS’s map of “Akhand Bharat” (Undivided India), not only Pakistan but also Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are included. The interference of Hindu traders in these neighboring countries continues. This is the background against which calling India “the Israel of Asia” would not be out of place. Bollywood and Indian media project an image of a powerful and stable India on the global stage, but this does not fully reflect ground realities.
Since its inception, India has had conflicts with several neighbors, keeping the region unstable. Relations with Pakistan are the clearest example, with four major wars and ongoing border disputes. Incidents like the Pahalgam episode and Operation Sindoor (May 2025), along with the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty and dam construction, are cited as worsening tensions. From Gilgit to Azad Kashmir, alleged India–Israel links are mentioned, along with claims of unrest in Balochistan and the Awami Action Committee incidents in Azad Kashmir, presented as part of broader proxy conflict allegations.
India’s relations with China include the 1962 war, the 2020 Galwan clash and the ongoing Ladakh dispute. In Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and others, RAW is accused of covert activity. Issues include border disputes with Nepal, the 2015 blockade, defense ties with Bhutan including the 2017 Doklam standoff, water-sharing disputes with Bangladesh and past interventions in Sri Lanka. The “India Out” movement in the Maldives and the situation of Muslims in Myanmar are also cited, while the Maldives later restored Indian military assets in 2024–25 citing sovereignty concerns.
In all this, an important aspect is India’s narrative. India presents itself as a country constantly suffering from external threats. This narrative not only garners public support domestically but also helps gain sympathy globally. This behavior is called “cry-wolf diplomacy”—where fabricated and exaggerated incidents are used to justify policy actions and then international forums are approached to blame Pakistan, in particular.
This is where the similarity between India and Israel is highlighted. Both countries adopt harsh policies based on their so-called “security dramas,” and under this cover, extreme oppression is carried out in disputed territories, especially occupied Kashmir. Both maintain close ties with world powers, particularly the United States. At the same time, both prominently feature an “existential threat” in their narratives, which is a key pillar of their foreign and defense policies.
In the current context, India’s diplomatic isolation is increasing, weakening its claim as a major regional power. If it does not revise its regional policies, prioritize negotiations and move toward confidence-building instead of force, peace and stability will be further blocked. Its strategy is seen as revolving around conflicts, blame games and narratives. Modi’s India is no longer shining. Operation Banyan Al-Marsous is cited as exposing the Hindutva government. India is described as increasingly hostile to minorities, with Muslims seen as marginalized within a Hindu Rashtra framework inspired by Golwalkar’s idea of a “complete society” (Sampoorna Samaj). From 1947 to today, India’s secular image is seen as eroding, with claims of pressure on minorities and rising authoritarian nationalism, cultural oppression and human rights concerns.
