Hindutva-Zionism Axis Fuels Middle East Tensions

Pakistan has taken a firm stance against Israel’s aggression on Iran, with Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar condemning the attacks and affirming Islamabad’s support for Tehran. “We strongly condemn Israeli aggression against Iran,” Dar stated, highlighting a shared position on Palestine between Pakistan and Iran.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has unequivocally declared that “the only sustainable solution is the establishment of a free Palestinian state.” Iran’s Supreme Leader praised Pakistan’s clear and steadfast position on the issue of Palestine.

The real source of regional unrest, according to analysts, is the rising alliance between Hindutva (India) and Zionism (Israel). Indian media figures like Arnab Goswami have defended Israel’s attack on Iran by comparing it to Hamas’s actions, while social media accounts in India have openly expressed anti-Iran sentiment.

Former Indian Major Gaurav Arya insulted Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on television with explicit slurs following the strikes. Supportive messages for the India-Israel partnership also flooded Indian social platforms after the attack on Iran.

A post on X (formerly Twitter) read: “We don’t want a nuclear Iran. Israel is fighting Iran and strongly supports India in its conflict with Pakistan.” Another message claimed that India provided Israel with the confidence to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities based on attacks against Pakistan’s secret bases.

Experts warn that India’s open backing of Israel poses a serious threat to Iran. They argue that if Tehran remains silent about India’s actions, it could have negative effects on the broader region. To protect national security, Iran must closely monitor and respond to the growing India-Israel alliance.
