What happens next in Rafah will be the key.

Israel must agree with Egypt first before launching the Rafah offensive. Egyptians are always there for the highest bidders, and so are everyone else. The only beneficiary of this tragic conflict is Netanyahu's political enemies and, of course, Iran. We will see Iran and Hezbollah cheerleading on the fringes while thousands more Palestinians are dying. No one will intervene on behalf of the Palestinians.

As I say, let us wait and see. Arabs are either sleeping or for sale, and the rest of the faithful are simply unconcerned.

Two observations:
1. Indians will continue to supply the world's labor workforce. Not exactly what a competitor to China (at least in eyes of US) should be doing.

2. GCC (mostly UAE, Saudi Arabia) continue to be spineless. They can't help Gazans, but given 9M indians work in GCC countries, you would think they would have the backbone to state a policy position

With Palestinian laborers shut out of Israel, Indian workers line up for jobs there​

February 17, 20245:01 AM ET


Indian men line up at a registration office set up in a technical college in the northern Indian city of Lucknow, where they hope to sign up to work in Israel.

LUCKNOW, India — A devotional song blares from a Hindu temple as dozens of men cram in line for the chance to register for work in Israel. But mostly what the men hear are orders. An official directs them to a warehouse-style waiting room if they haven't already signed up. As the men jostle to get to the head of the line, a security guard orders them to sit down on the ground. "Do it like gentlemen," the guard orders. "No need for mischief!"


This unruly line outside a vocational training center in the northern Indian city of Lucknow is more than 2,700 miles away from Gaza — and it spotlights the many ways the war between Israel and Hamas is affecting life around the world.

Middle East crisis — explained ​

Thai farmhands in Israel face a grim choice: work in a war zone or go home to poverty​

Israel suspended the work permits of most Palestinian laborers after Hamas-backed militants attacked Israel on Oct. 7, killing more than 1,200 people and taking 240 hostages, according to Israeli authorities. That triggered the latest war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, where more than 27,000 Palestinians have been killed since Oct. 7, according to Gaza health officials.


Palestinian laborers formed the backbone of Israel's construction sector. After the work permit suspensions, most building sites lie idle.


"We don't bring in Arabs from Judea and Samaria because it is a security risk," said Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, using a biblical term to describe the Israeli-occupied West Bank. This is what prompted Israel to look for "alternatives," he said during a Feb. 4 news conference.


India appears to be one of those alternatives.


Haim Feiglin, the deputy president of the Israel Builders Association, told Voice of America soon after the war began that the association was hoping to bring in anywhere from 50,000 to 100,000 workers from India. "Right now we are negotiating with India. We are waiting for [the] decision of the Israeli government to approve that," he said in an interview on Nov. 1.


Barely two months later, the northern Indian states of Haryana and Uttar Pradesh each advertised 10,000 jobs for skilled laborers in Israel. According to an advertisement issued by the Haryana state government, the Israeli recruiters seek carpenters, blacksmiths, tilers and plasterers.


Those selected after on-spot interviews and skill tests will receive a monthly wage of more than $1,600, more than five or six times what they would receive for the same work in India.


Among the men hopeful for jobs in Israel is Ram Kumar, a 36-year-old carpenter who traveled more than 150 miles to register in Lucknow. On a recent damp, cold morning, he tells NPR it's his third day waiting in line. "I have two kids, a wife and a father to look after," he says.


He is still at the back, with hundreds in front of him. The sheer number of job seekers over the previous two days means by the time he gets close to the registration desk, officials will call it a day, he says.


Kumar has spent nights at a cousin's home nearby. He says others are sleeping on nearby pavements, on the platform of the nearby railway station and even in an abandoned lot between buildings.

Nearby, Bahadur Singh is also applying to work in Israel, even though he's nervous. "We've heard there are lots of bombs and missiles being thrown around," he says.


"Then don't apply if you're so worried!" snaps an eavesdropping fellow candidate.


But the promise of better compensation is too strong a draw.


"I want to give my children a better life than me," Singh says.


India's foreign ministry has not said whether the men will be sent to areas close to conflict zones, but a spokesperson noted that Israel generally has robust worker protections.


Singh says he was motivated to apply because this recruitment drive comes out of a deal between the Indian and Israeli governments, and a government-to-government deal meant he wasn't risking being fleeced by employment agents — that happened to him a few years ago. "Fraud, sir, fraud," he says, shaking his head.


He says he paid an agent his life savings, $600, on the promise of a job abroad. Then the agent disappeared. It's a common story for Indians seeking work abroad.


Israel and India inked the deal to send Indian workers last May. It was seen as a way of regulating labor between the two countries, which has been growing over the years. Indian skilled laborers and care workers in particular seek employment in Israel because of its relatively high wages. But Israel remains a small market for expatriate Indian labor compared with the Gulf region, for instance, where an estimated 9 million Indians work.


The rush for wide-scale recruitment to Israel began in earnest after the conflict erupted between Israel and Hamas.


Indian trade unions see the current recruitment as an effort to replace Palestinians who have lost their livelihoods following the outbreak of war.


"Nothing could be more immoral and disastrous," said a statement in November by 10 unions, mostly representing construction workers. "Such a step will amount to complicity on India's part with Israel's ongoing genocidal war against Palestinians."


Members of the Congress party, the chief opposition to the Hindu nationalist ruling party, also criticized the decision to allow Indian workers to be sent to Israel.


"What are we essentially saying by doing this?" asked Praveen Chakravarty, a political economist affiliated with the Congress party. "We are essentially saying, don't worry. Even if you attack Palestinians and you do not have Palestinian labor, we will supplement that. That is direct intervention."


A government official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media on this subject told NPR that the recruitment drive was "never intended to replace Palestinian workers in any sector."


But he acknowledged the rushed recruitment drive could be related to the current conflict. "It is possible that some fresh recruitment is being done due to reasons completely internal to Israel," he said.


Navtej Sarna, a former Indian ambassador to Israel, says the deal demonstrates the strength of the India-Israel relationship. "It shows the two governments are comfortable working with each other, and this is something which has built up over the last 30 years," he says.


Before that, India was a prominent ally of Palestinians. It established full diplomatic relations with Israel only in 1992.

The jobseekers of all the significant labor supplier countries of the GCC would line up for work in Israel, given they have full diplomatic relations with Israel. The sub-continent has the most significant migrant labor pool in the world. People with low education, low income, and unemployment also suffer from low morals and do not have much ideological appetite. For most people in the subcontinent, paying bills for the family gets the highest priority over anything else, even if that means working in danger zones or taking dangerous routes to migrate. Socio-economic class plays the defining factor of whether a sub-continental person is ideologically inclined and how much inclined. The higher the social stature, ideological inclinations gets higher in proportion.

Unless we have Caucasian/ Middle Eastern-like color and face, as many of us do, most American-Canadians assume us to be Indian. The voice/tone is especially difficult to hide. There was a time when we Pakistanis used to be clean-shaven ( still I am). Many of our young folks now look like Indian soap actors with beards. Just have a look at any random new wedding photo.

The Sikhs in Canada & the UK are generally pro-Pakistanis and vice-versa. I've seen many Pakistanis help Sikhs start businesses in Canada and I've seen Sikhs be generous towards Pakistanis.

There are a lot of international Sikh students who act like wild animals, however, and they paint a bad picture of them for everyone.

Canadians are very well fed up of this. They cannot generally separate a Sikh, Hindu, etc. Indian person. When the Indian-Canada spat happened over India's killing of a Sikh in Canada, the Canadians at vehemently supported Canada's stance as they were sick of India (no pun intended) with their mass migration and scams calls, etc. But the irony is that most of the reason for that is due to the massive Sikh migration in Canada and the Hindutva attempt to control Canada for it. So Canada ends up being this weird place where it is an outbranch of a 'Sikh empire' of sorts but the people of the country dislike India because of the actions of the Indian Sikhs in Canada while at the same time India dislikes Canada because of its lenient stance towards Khalistan (which is far more than even Pakistan's support).

How is this possible? My friends in a GCC country, when I sent them a picture of a pro-Gaza march, they didn’t even respond. Everybody been suppressed by their leaders.

Social media was supposed to make information and action more visible. The opposite seems to be happening.

This may fly in the US (till the law suits start rolling in), but in the EU this will be never permitted. European standard for digital privacy is much higher.

As for social media: certainly if one lives in a country where the Govt is supporting Israel, it is understandable that some won't respond. But these people are living in GCC countries. When did the rulers there adopt the position that their citizens should be afraid to support Gazans. This is terrible. As for me, I can't go help Gazans, but the least I can do is to keep going to these marches to pressure the politicians in my country to not be on wrong side of history

Yaar all I said is that US will take that patriot act to a new level when Trump sahb returns aur jo US kehnde hae vo EU waalay karde ne. Ager tussi jande ho protest per, then atleast wear mask.......Ae harami saara kuchh record karde hain ge. Just be careful. Right wing gubments nay aana hae down da road everywhere.
