Israel-Palestine history about how Jews were persecuted in Europe for centuries and to save their lives they migrated to Palestine and now Palestinians have been reduced to refugees in their own country. So, Palestine’s cause obviously deserves support but not by supporting terrorists.
This has been the stance of the Indian government, historically. India has always supported the Palestinian cause of self-determination under various Prime Ministers, be it Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Manmohan Singh or Prime Minister Modi.
Prime Minister Modi has actually been the first Indian Prime Minister to visit Palestine. Now the statement from PM Modi has expressed shock at the terrorist attacks and he expressed solidarity with Israel and Israel’s innocent victims and their families.
And this is not surprising because Hamas’ actions here is nothing but terrorism. Many disturbing videos have come up where Hamas terrorists have treated women and civilians in a way that cannot even be described.
It is a very shameful that some people see them as freedom fighters. It is true that there has been injustice against the common people in Palestine, but killing the common people in Israel, such terrorism can never be justified.
