In February 2026, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Israel, strengthening the already close relationship between the two nations. Both Modi and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu share a political intimacy rooted in the idea of their countries as safe havens, respectively, for Hindus and Jews. This partnership is built on a perceived civilizational struggle against Islam. However, the article questions the reality of safety within both nations, particularly for Palestinians in Israel and Muslims and other minorities in India, highlighting persistent issues of exclusion and hierarchy. The visit included symbolic gestures, such as Sara Netanyahu wearing saffron, a color associated with Hindutva, signaling an affirmation of Modi's ideological framework.
