And look at the Israel advantages from this relationship.
Let us be honest here for a second.
What is it that India can give the Arab world (22 countries in total and about 450 million people) that fellow Muslim countries and main allies and trading partners such as USA, China, West Europe cannot give us?
On the other hand India is still largely dependent on natural resources originating from the Arab world due to the growing demand and very high population.
Also there are millions of Indian citizens working in the Arab world. I think that they send the most remittances back to india of all regions in the world.
On the other hand the Arab world (in particular the Arabian Peninsula across the Arabian Sea) and Northern/Western India have enjoyed an ancient cultural and trade connection that is still vivid to this day.
India does not need to be for or against Israel as they are not the main players in that conflict nor even located in the region. I struggle to see what weight India's words carry in Israel. Contrary to the words of for instance the US or EU.
New Recruit
Arabs themselves do not support Palestinian cause except token statements, instead they keep slaughtering and backstabbing each other like medieval savages, besides bowing to their western masters. So I dont know how the rest of the world can be expected to speak for Arabs if they themselves do not want to unite and fight injusticeLet us be honest here for a second.

Like?- does your support means anything?-
They will still be savages killing innocent children-
They have faught wars and won & survived without you-
You are not a player in that region-
Amrika is-
The Arabs are smart. They know that a statement in OIC would not affect India at all, that is tokenism, but in return they would have a Pakistan willing to shoot itself for them.So some Arab realize that Indians feel cheated by Arabs after getting India's blind support for Palestine.
Arabs aren't going to change and the proof is their anti-India resolution regarding Kashmir passed in OIC every year.
I agree completely.India does not need to be for or against Israel as they are not the main players in that conflict nor even located in the region. I struggle to see what weight India's words carry in Israel. Contrary to the words of for instance the US or EU.
No. They dont.But they need us.

Our support indeed have its own weightage .After all we are the largest democratic nation in this world.You are right they can move without our support.
But Israel need India more than India needs Israel.Our relation with Israel is mainly on the basis of weapons trade.If we dont get weapons from them we will find weapons from other market and that is not a big problem.
But they need us.
Our support to Israel might not mean anything as of now. But diplomacy is all about generating international legitimacy and nullifying any potential support for your adversary. India and China, by virtue of their population, are equally important. Bring them to your side and you have more than 35% of humanity agreeing with you.
Besides, in the same vein, what exactly does Pakistan's support to the Palestinian cause serve? The same as India? Because after all, it hasn't changed anything on the ground in favour of Palestine, has it?

Our support to Palestine is a selfless moral support to the people- regardless the Palestinians in return can give us nothing- and also keeping in mind the fact that Historically Palestinians were more favorable to towards you guys than us-
The O.P is critisizing this exact attitude, that arab nations like you calculated that india does not matter in the middle east.True not right now, but surely the growing closeness of india and israel is not a welcoming sign for the arab nations, there are many ways with which now india can help israel...for ex their spy sattelite was recently launched by ISRO, space tech. coordination,joint ventures,intelligence sharing....and if and when india does get into UNSC..then surely its importance will increase.
Only Western countries, Arab League, Iran and China are relevant in this middle East conflict.
India dont need to fulfill its need on the basic of remittances.But we are thankful to the Arab nations because of their welcoming attitude towards us.
You are right India still need resources of Arab World.But its all is just good business.
Like the article said we dont have an aim for policemen attitude or something like that.
Like you said it is not our issue and we dont want interfere on it.
But others must also stay away from our Kashmir issue.This is also not the Arab subject.

So I dont know how the rest of the world can be expected to speak for Arabs if they themselves do not want to unite and fight injustice
Your argument will hold weight if weapons export is the only survival option for Israel-
If money is the logic you need Arabs more than Israel and vice versa-
