Suspicious of ties between Turkey, Pakistan, Qatar and Egypt, non-Moslem India sees Israel as a key ally. Turkey and Pakistan have now been joined by Saudi Arabia, but not Egypt to form the new Middle East NATO, which is focused on not India but Iran.
Israel has captured all the key players into alliances in the region.
The US is withdrawing.
Russia and China support Iran.

The pressure is building.
