1. Intresting, I thought India, was a new chum of Israel.

Or is this just such a bad idea it is obvious to everyone.

2. Obviously not a bad idea to the Egyptians...

who have just made a deal with Israel for gas lines and then announced that political decisions will not hold up the deal. Interesting. Why haven't we heard from OUR GREAT LEADER on this topic?

edited for misspelling leader...I wonder why I had that problem????

3. Wrong

India needs help from Israel in learning how to combat terrorism, get intelligence equipment etc. So they are being friendly with them. However, India also has longstanding ties to the Arab world and knows Israel is in the wrong much of the time. India pursues a strategy of non-alignment with foreign countries. I think it's brilliant.
