‘India-Israel ties can affect Al Aqsa conflict’:
India-Israel friendship can affect AL- Aqsa conflict
Context
- India’s friendly ties with Israel could ‘interfere’ with the ongoing Israeli-Palestinians conflict over the Al Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem.
Issue
- The Palestine’s envoy to India said Israel had been trying to disturb the sanctity of the Al Aqsa mosque.
- The Judaisation process of the site which is holy to both Muslims and the Jewish is the current development.
- The Judaisation campaign of Israel received a serious blow last year when UNESCO declared Al Aqsa mosque compound to be uniquely Muslim.
- This has resulted into an infuriated Israel, which decided to go with the latest provocation
Expectation of Palestine
- The Ambassador, Adnan Abu Al Haija, termed Israel’s latest security measures in Al Aqsa compound a ‘religious war’.
- Palestine is aware of growing friendship between India and Israel and is getting wary of it.
- Palestine expects a “positive attitude” from the Indian government regarding the conflict.
- India’s friendly ties with Israel could hinder with the present situation in Jerusalem.
