With this whole Israel thing, I can't help but think Ukraine feels abandoned. In an effort to reassure Kyiv, I'd like to propose the following variant of the infamous Rick-roll song. You know, something to cheer them up and make them feel better:
Never gonna Kyiv you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

For real though, what is with Indian worship of Israel? Did Israel do something in the past to warrant such perverse levels of idolization?

Prior sympathies with Palestinians associated with India's post-colonial identity and non-aligned movement credentials have given way over the decades to antipathy towards Muslims, a transition paralleling the decline of the secular Congress party and rise of the Hindutva movement under the BJP. India's embrace of Israeli defence products since the 1990s is the concrete expression of this.

Question for someone who isn't typing on a smartphone: recalling the links between the nuclear programs of Israel and apartheid South Africa, are or were there also links between Indian and Israeli nuclear weapons programs?

Does anyone know what the custom-made fencings for by customers in the Middle East are used for?

Ah yes. Steel/aluminum fencing poles that are very much shaped like MRLS rockets are definitely going to be used for setting up fences. Definitely have zero chances for civil-cum-military applications. ;)

India is supposedly a secular state. But India's current ruling party BJP and their affiliated paramilitary organization RSS are extremely Hindu nationalistic and their ultimate goal is to make India a Hindutva state. One of their biggest obstacles is having a large Muslim minority. Israel is also trying to establish a fully Jewish state, with the obstacle being a Muslim group. So may be the Hindutva Indians feel a connection to Israel because of that.
The other reason would be to please the West. They couldn't do that with the Russia-Ukraine case because they depend on Russia for a lot of their weapons, but in Israel-Palestine case they don't have anything to lose by siding with Israel.
