Lt Gen Raj Shukla (R) and I carried out a review of the Israel Hamas war which went beyond the normal and examined the local and geopolitical aspects which are emerging in this conflict. More importantly, we examined the challenges posed to India. The issues at hand are that India needs to be nimble footed to realise that the global geopolitical scenario might no more be about poles but about alignments in which India will have to make tough choices. Even more importantly, if India is to grow as being visualised , it needs to invest far more in its military than hitherto forte. It is not a matter of budgets alone but change in structures and thinking. The most important aspect which comes to the fore is that India’s political leaders are hopelessly divided and fractionalised that it will affect our security adversely as it has done in Israel.
