    They aren’t, they’re blaming Israel for setting the precedent. Now it’s harder for any western country to admonish India because they let Israel do the same thing.

      Entirely different situation with two vastly different nations. Shoehorning in a comparison between Israel-Palestine and India-Pakistan situations is odd.

      Honestly, it is bold to assume any western country was going to admonish India. India has been courting Western businesses away from China.

        I’m not saying they’re going to admonish India, but if they want to, now they have a precedent set where they agreed to an allied nation performing horrific acts against civilians for the sake of rooting out terrorists.

        You claiming it to be shoehorning a comparison between the two situations means you fail to comprehend the actual point being made. The point is they are already being lenient about a worst-case scenario like Israel’s genocide that their words will lack power if they ever want to try telling India to stop.
