India may end support to Palestine at U.N.
2014-12-21
In what could amount to a tectonic shift in the country's foreign policy, the Modi government is looking at altering India's supporting vote for the Palestinian cause at the United Nations to one of abstinence.

Two sources within the government confirmed to The Hindu that the change, which will be a fundamental departure from India's support to the cause of a Palestinian state, was under consideration.

#4  There is that. However, considering the number of 'militants' from the MidEast that just happened to be found in SE Asia (to use a general locale,) I'm wondering if the arms sales and this recent action are symptoms of something else and not cause-and-effect.

#3  "India is now the largest buyer of Israeli military equipment, while Israel is India's largest customer after Russia. In the first nine months of 2014, bilateral trade reached $3.4 billion, on target for a record this year." Source

#2  But Pappy, what could that problem in the northeast have to do with the Paleos? Is there some shared characteristic that I'm not picking up on? {/sarc}

#1  Might be that little problem they're having in the northeast?
