India among 128 nations to vote in support of UN resolution against U.S. decision on Jerusalem

[Poseidon]

While 128 nations supported the resolution, 8 or 9 opposed incl US & Israel whereas 35 abstained.

 

[Yggdrasil]

Why, exactly, have we voted in support and not abstained? It better be for some serious concessions from OIC on important stuff.

Ye mamla complicated he. BC kal trump bol raha tha saley hamse paise lete hain kuch desh or hame vote nahin dete

India also supported Palestinian right to self determination:

Do you really think this is no strings attached "aid"?

 

[Willy2]

We definitely not going to vote for Israel when our own land and ppl illegally occupied by jihadist country .

Donald Trump wants us to buy arms - in exchange he is ready to call Pakistan names. He also wants fewer H1Bs for domestic political reasons. As long as you are buying from the Donald, he is a friend.
Case in point, Saddam and Gaddafi were friends with Uncle Sam as long as they were buying American stuff.
On the other hand, we get to buy oil from Arab nations and send labourers to earn foreign exchange - in return we have to pat the Palestinians from time to time.
All of these make good business sense.

My personal opinion is that India should have abstained instead of opposing. We are friends with Israel at the same time friendly with middle east as well. Our abstaining would have meant a lot to Israel.

International politics be like

 

[Nicky G]

A shame. The least we could do was abstain.

We support Jihadis who do not back us on Kashmir.

 

[Indibomber]

Its a Fine decision, it should not impact India Israel relations ship since. Israel maintains status Quo with Tel Aviv as its capital and we maintain peace with Islamic nations. We need to grow Military and economic clout at this time. PS: China and Russia voted in favor of the motion. We cannot afford hostilities with these countries at this point in time.

 

[Tactical Frog]

Nikki started to work on her report . Looks like Donald was not able to scare several recipients of US military aid. Thinking about Ukraine , Georgia, Afghanistan.

 

[binayak95]

Forget India, US treaty allies such as UK, France, Germany and even Japan voted in favour of this resolution. Maybe everyone is just fed up with Trump's absolute stupidity. yeh president is an absolute mockery of the both American democracy and the rules based order that past US presidents have so craftily created.

He may end up destroying the image of the US as an effective power.

 

[Chinmoy]

We had a valid reason to go against US.

India always maintained that Kashmir is a bi lateral issue and always opposed any third party involvement including US. The same had been our stand in Israel-Palestine issue. Now if we we had supported US or abstained from voting, we ourself would have been at a fix next time on Kashmir. And don't even think it would not arise.

 

[G10]

India gets thrashed at IOC and still licks feet of arabs. So shameful is this. We could have abstained or make it clear to arabs to recognize our legitimate claim in Kashmir for supporting palestine.

 

[Screambowl]

IOC, Gaza strip + Palestine = territory issue
Jerusalem = religious issue

India should have remained abstain. Jerusalem is a debate between christians Muslims and jews. Why the hell India has to take part. I don't understand.

It's against the secular fabric of India. Because India has gone against jews. Constitution does not allow.

Now if tomorrow India builds Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, as per this decision in UN, every one should vote against India.
