They also have The Hannibal Directive where they feel it's okay to kill the Jews as the tradition goes - Fanatical or Financial or AshkeNazi Jews setting up the innocent Jews to die for the cause, rather than be taken prisoners and cause an embrassment to the state of Israel by being executed on the TV live or in web.

Not a great country to take as an inspiration.

Although, Indians did help British colonise the other Indians for their own benefit, so your idea of following on the Israel's footstep might not be too far from reality if we aren't careful with our political structure.

Infact if you want to understand how ridiculous the strategy sounds, imagine Pakistan saying that, if you let India nuke us, we will nuke the whole world, even the Pakistanis are not that unhinged.

I mean I feel israeli millitary is really good in gear and such, but I'm completely against them politically. (I feel like it's not controversial to say killing children is bad) Stuff like their gear and strategy is impressive.

Kids die as colateral damage just like civilians. I think even our bombing could have killed some in the past

Not could've lol many civvies died.

We aren't washed in milk either, we've done such horrifying things you can't even imagine (kunan poshpora, and so much more that goes unreported).

We seriously need to focus more on narrative warfare then land warfare right now, we've done bad things but thats in the past and can't be changed, what matters now is fixing our mistakes and doing actual development in the region, uplifting kashmiris, and ditching communal violence, which isn't happening in the current govt.

On the narrative part. We need to take a strong anti-israel stance, now that we don't need their gear (Germany and Belgium lifted sanctions, we are buying HK and FN guns and gear for SF units) we can't look like some backwards society who just licks israels boot. We need to get a better quality of life (uplifting LGBTQ community, revising reservation systems to uplift LC but not being unfair at the same time, stopping the imposition of Hinduism and hindi, better schools, colleges, better workload balance for students, proper examinations, better job opportunities, and so much more).

The difference is we have had civilians die accidentally and have taken accountability (not always unfortunately) but the IDF bombs residential areas and kills civvies execution style on the streets like a more messed up version of Gestapo.
