Israel and
India established full diplomatic relations on
January 29,
1992.
[1] Several key factors contributed to this: the collapse of the
USSR and the military escalation with the
Islamic Republic of
Pakistan. The loss of the
Indian National Congress in the general elections and the coming of the
Bharatiya Janata Party, along with mutual concerns about
Islamic fundamentalism in the
Middle East and the
Indian subcontinent[2][3] are also to take into consideration. Establishment of diplomatic relations with Israel also was a step in strengthening relationships with the
United States[4] The level of co-operation between the two countries was pursued after the
Indian National Congress returned to power in 2004. Israel and India share intelligence on terrorist groups. They have developed close defense and security ties since establishing diplomatic relations in 1992. Israel is India's second-biggest arms supplier, after Russia. As of 2008, India has bought more than $5 billion worth of Israeli equipment since 2002. In addition, Israel is training Indian military units and discussing an arrangement to give Indian commandos instruction in counter-terrorist tactics and urban warfare.
[5]India and Israel have increased cooperation in military and intelligence ventures since the establishment of diplomatic relations. While India and Israel were officially "rivals" during the Cold War, the fall of the Soviet Union and the rise of Islamic terrorism in both countries have generated a solid strategic alliance.[13]. India recently launched a military satellite for Israel through its Indian Space Research Organization[14].
During the Kargil War, Israel provided India with military hardware, including laser-guided bombs and unmanned aerial vehicles to help it to flush out the Pakistani infiltrators in Kargil.[citation needed] This relationship soon developed into a major defense partnership between India and Israel.
Keep watching and get prepared...attack is imminent..USA will favour India....like what it is doing right now in case of assault on Gaza....Pray Allah and seek help by asking his forgiveness.
