- The Collaborations

Israel & US are allies! Massive Jewish lobby that controls US economy will always ensure 🇮🇱 has a free pass from the US.

As Indians became key contributors to the US Economy, What if our lobby takes a page from the 🇮🇱 lobby playbook?

At present India is balancing it's relations with Russia, but faces pressure from the West. Well, Trump claims when he comes to power he will put an end to the war.

India breathes a sigh of relief as it regains its strategic foothold in Sri Lanka, countering China's growing influence.
