A New Palestinian-India Rift
(Jerusalem Post) Caroline B. Glick - Last month at the UN, India reverted to its previous posture of blind support for the PLO and joined the chorus in attacking America for recognizing that Jerusalem is Israel's capital. A few days later, the PLO envoy to Pakistan, Walid Abu Ali, shared a stage in Rawalpindi with Lashkar e-Taibi leader Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, the mastermind of the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai which killed more than 160 people. Saeed is also wanted for his involvement in terrorist attacks in Mumbai in 2006 which killed more than 200 people, and for a shooting at the Indian Parliament in which another 14 were killed in 2001. Indian social media exploded in rage against the Palestinians and the PLO, saying, "This is how they pay us back for abandoning the U.S. and Israel to support them at the UN."
