India and Israel have been hobnobbing with each other for the past
many decades but the world at large has been unmindful of their hush
hush activities. Likewise, hidden ties with both USA and Israel have
not seen light of the day and only recently details of these ties have
been unravel lest. It will be recalled that on November 25, 2008,
Mumbai terrorists did their job meticulously well by provoking every
possible ally in the world.
By killing foreigners in addition to many Indians, they enlisted the
support of all western terrorist nations against Islam and Muslims. As
a result, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Kashmir and Muslims in India have been
put on high alert as USA, UK and Israel are determined to strike a
stunning blow on their entity. Pakistan, as expected is feeling rather
perplexed on the presumption that Muslims might have been involved in
the Mumbai carnage. These are however; far fetched apprehensions as in
view of their religious beliefs, Muslims would not perform this
dastardly act with such precision. As things stand, the Mumbai attacks
may have chosen to target whatever comes in their way, be it the
railway shorts or luxurious hotels, like “The Taj or Obroi Trident, or
any community centre (Nariman House.
However reports released recently have revealed that the assault on
Nariman House was carried out deliberately with ulterior motives.
Presumably, the terrorists had wanted to involve Israel also to join
Indo-US strategic killings of Muslims. According to a retired Indian
Admiral, Das, the aims of the attack on the Jewish Centre was to tell
India that it’s growing links with Israel were not acceptable to the
terrorist groups. Nariman House attack was to tell the Indians clearly
that India’s growing linkage with Israel was not what India should be
doing. Seen in this background, India wanted to use terrorism ploy to
get military concessions from other anti-Islamic nations.
India, for quite some time, had been making desperate efforts to
develop relationships with both USA and Israel and it has been quite
successful in its efforts. Interestingly, due to its clever
machinations, it has also successfully maintained economic relations
with the Muslim World - mainly the Gulf States. Apart from acquiring
military wares from USA, Europe and Russia in recent times, India has
become one of the largest customers of Israeli military techniques and
arms which are considered more advanced and lethal in the world. India
acquires weapons of about 1.5 billion dollars every year from Israel.
Only Russia sells more arms to India than Israel. India believes that
terrorism ploy could help advance its military interests in USA and
Israel and its calculations seem to be absolutely precise and
faultless. It may not be amiss to mention here that India seeks
advance military equipment and technology at concessional rates by
using Russia’s bargaining chips, but now Mumbai’s November 26, 2008
incident has given an extra advantage to New Delhi to obtain more
privileges from Tel Aviv. Israel let loose hell in Palestine by using
cluster bombs, killing thousands of innocent Palestinians including
women and children. India, however, has not said a single word of
sympathy for the hapless Palestinians. Instead, it is planning to sign
more agreements in days to come with the Jewish state.
To conclude, India and Israel thinks alike for damaging the interests
of Muslim countries. However, it is a matter of deep egret that
Muslims are not aware of the dangers that are currently facing them.
How sad it is to see that when Palestine was under terror attacks from
fascist Israel, the Muslim world was watching these ghastly scenes on
their TV screens and displaying no discomfitures?

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom
(i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue
with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone
astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy
Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in
His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites
(men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I
am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if
Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of
camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever
calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who
follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
