Can't compromise India's security, no arms to Pakistan: Israel


Israel which is considered to be one of India's closest strategic partner and the second largest arms exporter to India after Russia denied a statement alleging them of arms sales to pakistan which had appeared in the Israeli paper Haaretz citing report published by the British Government’s Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS). The reports by varioouus news papaers on the matter of allegation are listed here(The Hindu:  The Hindu - Israel's military Exports to Pakistan,
 The Dawn (A Pakistani newspaper:  The Dawn - Israel's arms exprts to Pakistan)

The telegraph then a year ago published an article claiming that the exports to pakistan did take place via Israel however that the British were yet to confirm if the deal had taken place with or without the knowledge  of the government in Tel Aviv
(http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/israel/10119393/Pakistan-military-technology-row-threatens-Israels-strategic-relationship-with-India.html)

Whatever the accusations, Israel today has released a statement stating that it had ever sold military equipment to pakistan and that thwy wouldnt jeopardize the Indian security concerns

The article published  by IBN live in this matter is given below:
Jerusalem/Kolkata: Israel has denied having sold military equipment to Pakistan and said it could do nothing to compromise its excellent strategic relations with India. "The State of Israel categorically denies having sold military equipment of any kind to Pakistan," Israel's defence ministry said in a statement released to the media.
"Israel would not do anything that could undermine India's security."
It said Israel has a strategic relationship with India, the strongest democracy in the world - which, like Israel, "deals with terrorist threats and serves as a major anchor in global international relations".
Can't compromise with India's security, says Israel

Defence cooperation has been critical to the expansion of ties between India and Israel since the establishment of bilateral diplomatic relations.

"The State of Israel does nothing that could compromise its excellent relations with India," it said.
The ministry issued the statement following a report in the Haaretz newspaper on Tuesday which cited official reports from Britain indicating that Israel had sold defence equipment to Pakistan and other countries such as Morocco.
In the statement, the ministry officials said that within the next few days, Israel would ask the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, which is responsible for issuing export permits in Britain, "for details of the information that was published in the official reports", Israeli media reported Wednesday.
Israeli Ambassador to India Alon Ushpiz also denied the reports and said his country has recently adopted a policy not to supply security or weapon systems to Pakistan.
"We are not selling security and weapon systems to Pakistan. It is our policy which we have implemented very recently not to sell weapon system to Pakistan," Ushpiz told reporters on the sidelines of an interaction organised by industry lobby CII in Kolkata.
Defence cooperation has been critical to the expansion of ties between India and Israel since the establishment of bilateral diplomatic relations in 1992. Israel has become India's second largest arms supplier after Russia.
While arms sales constitute the largest chunk of Indo-Israeli defence cooperation, other forms of collaboration have taken place. Both countries recognise that terror is a threat, particularly after the 2008 Mumbai attack, and Israel has offered to cooperate in fighting terrorism, including intelligence-sharing, counter-terrorist training, and joint exercises.
Both countries have also exchanged military visits in an effort to expand military-to-military ties. Israel has supplied India with radar systems for airborne early warning and missile defence.
There are no diplomatic relations between Israel and Pakistan. Pakistan has also denied that its military had purchased equipment from Israel.

Comments:
Wether the allegations of arms exports are true or false this blogger cannot verify, however it is the strong belief of the blogger that Israel would not knowingly supply pakistan with any ind of weaponry which would be used against India. The threat of terrorism hangs on the heads of both the countries and Israel is aware of pakistan's state sponsoring of terrorism.

THE ISIS THREAT AND INDIA'S REACTION





Below referred is an article that was pocured form the web from a website known as confessionsfiles.com and it apparently refers to an intervview given by a certain ISIS commander. The article is as follows

ISIS didn’t show any partiality towards Indian nurses but it was the need of time


Ridiculous, simply ridiculous! We are ashamed to see the ignorance and brittleness of our Sunni brothers who got enraged so easily and started taking side of the Shias and blaming own brothers. Till last week everything was OK, Sunni brothers were joining hands with their brothers but all of a sudden this Indian nurse case damaged it all.
Many Shia propagandists have successfully brainwashed the Sunni brothers to believe that we were sympathetic to Hindus or Indians than Shias. Surprisingly fellow Sunni brothers have started asking how the ISIS can release the Indian nurses stranded inside Moshul even as the Shias were picked-killed! Shamelessly they have started branding us as agents of Hindus which we are certainly not. We are just the agents of Allah, the one and only almighty. Did they ever look at the other picture?
By the grace of Allah we had instilled horror inside the hearts of the fellow Indian nurses and we almost brought down the Indian government to knees. Citing the success of spectacular military mission of the soldiers of Allah in Mumbai on 26th November 2008; and the governmental impotence thereafter we thought things would be easy. We thought that Indian government will kneel down to us. India is the most important country for the Islamic missions. However the Indian reaction was out of expectations.
The Indians were in no mood of negotiations, within a couple of months these Indians have learnt diplomacy to militarism. As a matter of fact we are getting angry reactions mostly from Pakistan which sees itself as a nation of mix-breed wanting to down the Sunni supremacy to suit Shia's lust. What happened to you? Why you Pakistanis had to release hundreds of Indian fishermen due to single invitation of Narendra Modi? Why did you allow that Modi to stab you with a sugar dipped dagger? That is okay when it’s your case, and when we have this situation, all hell comes down???


This India had a change; there was a change in government. A fanatic and extremist man had been ordained. Rather than negotiating, they have sent two bloody big naval ships. Heavily armed, us? We could have been wiped out for all we know if we hadn't reacted. The Indians reached here and directly they communicated us with a list. It was us who were supposed to send them list of our demands, but they sent us a list. And do you bashers have really got any idea how incredulous the list enlisted was? No demands but bloody addresses of hubs and locations of our units.
Do you know what that means? What that actually means!? That means, "Sir we have got gifts for you and we will give you surprises from masked men and will drop you gifts from Russian made Sukhoi’s." We are not brainless Pakistanis, we are Iraqis, we use brains. We had better plans for the nurses. We would have done the same things with them that, Allah, the merciful has directed us. We were hungry of Qafir meat. But that Narendra Modi poured water into our plans. We had to release them in return of our security.
If we are alive, we can f#ck those Indian nurses in their own land and with interested capital. Our organization has already vowed to enter India and for that we have already started our planning, but for that we have to be alive. India can’t be defeated in overt war and if none else, at least Pakistanis must not forget this and lecture us. The Pakistanis have get their bottom drilled by the Indians a number of times in war against India. Better they not lecture us. Rather they should learn from us how we bring India down.
Lastly I would like to categorically state that ISIS doesn't discriminate between Hindus and Shias, they both are Qafir for us. At least Shias are corrupt version of Muslims but Hindus are not even that. We know our duty what to do with Hindus, but sometime leaving the enemy is only a scope to finish them with more brutality. We didn't release the Indian nurses by choice but due to lack of choice. Ameen!
This confession was a part of a questionnaire by the Confession Files Middle East team with an ISIS commander on the recent release of Indian nurses and parallel brutality with Shias. Confession Files neither supports nor opposes the views expressed in the confession. We are against any advocacy of inhumane acts and we have put this only to help the information seekers gain the answer. Readers are requested to follow their own consciences. 

Analysis:

The blogger first is extremely glad that the Indian government was swift in bringing about a resolution that got the Indian citizens back to their homeland safe and sound.. The methodology in which this was achieved is rather both spectacular and interesting to see. Firstly, India a peace loving country as it is never has resorted to such open arm twisting. As the terrorist was kind enough to point out we always were interested in peaceful negotiation and they believed that he Indian government would approach them for talks and would ask for demands. What they got was more than what they bargained for. The political leadership for once showed sense in its decisions. Instead of insisting that negotiations were the way and that is what they would do, they listened to the experts on the matter. The navy ship INS Mysore was directly deployed to Iraq help evacuations and do what was necessary to bring back the Indian citizens. The fact that a Delhi class destroyer was deployed whose job by its name itself is to destroy was in itself terrifying to the terrorists. In case they felt that they were safe due to the lack of range of weapons on the destroyer, the government deployed INS Tarkash, a talwar class stealth frigate armed to the teeth with brahmos cruise missiles and other lethal weapons the readers can refer to on the net. The fact that these two warships between them shared enough firepower to reduce half a city to cinder was not lost upon the ISIS. Added to the two big 
 navy warships was the fact that the IAF was willing to  fly in its latest toys,  C-130J and the C-17 into Iraq to rescue it civilians, however the militants realized that the IAF was not going to fly its cargo planes into a combat zone without fighter escort. And any fighter escort they might send into Iraq would definitely come armed with ground attack munitions rather than air to air missiles was pretty evident. Any attack on any Indian asset would then be met by an attack so fact by the Indian escorting jets that the ISIS would have no chance of self defense and also the Brahmos missiles on the ship INS Tarkash are famed as the fastest cruise missile operational in the world today. These facts were not lost on the ISIS commanders when entered a certain person who has high levels of experience in handling matters of terrorists, the man himself had infiltrated organisations and headed the intelligence bureau at the peak of his career and now was the National Security Adviser to the current Prime Minister, yes we  speak of our highly revered NSA Mr. Ajit Doval. The man himself flew on a covert mission to Iraq and is rumored to have been the brains the handing over of the list mentioned above, whether he did it himself or through other means is unknown. The fact that the government left this in the hand of the highly competent and skilled Mr. Doval and left to him the optimal utilization of the assets in field that he was able to support and execute such a plan.
This policy change in negotiating with the terrorists just the way they would hold us hostage with just the exception of no civilians involved is rather a marvelous change in the outlook of the government. The current government seems be listening to the experts in the fields is showing zero tolerance to words when action is needed. Such a foreign policy wherein India's interests are upheld is highly desirable and could see India develop much faster than expected while earning the respect of its people and of the world as a whole.
