Majority of Indians are strong supporters of Israel and West ( USA , UK , etc) , We would like to see USA winning in Iraq , Israel winning in Lebanon , UK winning in Afghanistan.We would like to see the victory of Freedom and Democracy. Political Leadership is compelled to speak against the Wars in Iraq & Lebanon because of Three main reasons ,

1) Being a developing country of over one billion people , its heavily depended on Oil from Arab Countries.

2) Being a democracy , It has over 200 million muslims who are against Israel / USA in general and West in particular. Muslims Mullahs call for tactical voting against the Parties supporting Israel ( BJP ,etc.) so All Political Leadership are worried about the muslim sentiments and didn't want to upset them.So democractic compulsions didn't allow them to come openly in favour of Israel in west.

3) Over 4 Million Indians ( 75 % of them Muslims) are working in Oil Rich Muslim Gulf Countries , so Muslim leaders threatened to expel them or keep them as hostage or bargaining chip , if India openly supports Israel.

4) India is surrounded by majority of Muslim Hostile Countries and above all we have 24 % Muslims in India which are becoming anti west , anti America , Anti Israel day by day.So any body supporting Israel openly will invite a Islamic Fatwa or Death Threat . He will be inviting a physical attack or will be killed. One of the Minister ( he is a muslim) declared cash reward of Rupees 50 Million for any muslim who can go and behead the Danish Cartoonist who published cartoons of Islamic Prophet Mohammad.

Inspite of the all the facts and figures , We all Indians ( Hindus , Jews , Christians , Catholics , Orthodox, Sikhs , Jains , bahais , Parsees ,.......................( except Muslims) support Israel and pray for victory against the war against Terrorism.

We hope that the Wars must end and peace must come . We are not war mongers . We want peace and harmony as well . But If there is a World War III , Majority of Indians will stand in favour of West against The Islamist Terrorism.

God Bless Israel.
