Comparative Analysis: Indo-Pak and Arab-Israeli Wars (HIST-230)

This essay provides a comparative analysis of the Indo-Pak wars and the Arab-Israeli wars, both of which originated around 1947 following independence from British rule and centered on territorial disputes. The essay highlights the role of religious and political factors in exacerbating these conflicts, drawing parallels between the Kashmir issue in the Indo-Pak context and the Palestine issue in the Arab-Israeli context. It discusses the failure of international bodies and diplomatic efforts to resolve these issues, emphasizing the bloody histories, massacres, and trade relationship failures that characterize these conflicts. The study underscores the complexity and lack of visible solutions for effectively mitigating or resolving the ongoing disputes, which have significantly hampered the involved nations' development and international relations.

1COMPARISON OF THE INDO-PAK WARS WITH ARAB-ISRAELI WARS
 The root cause of the Indo-Pak war which had been going on between the nations of India
and Pakistan since the year 1947 can be attributed to the possession of Kashmir
 Pakistan had been disputing this since the year 1947 on the basis of the fact that the
majority of the inhabitants or the people residing in the concerned area are Muslims
 Various wars have been fought between the two nations like the ones in 1947, 1965, 1971
and 1999
 The root cause of the Arab-Israeli Wars is the possession of Palestine
 The important wars fought between these two nations are the wars of 1948–49, 1956,
1967, 1973, 1982, and 2006
 The Indo-Pak wars and the Arab-Israeli wars mirror each other since both of these wars
have been going on since the year 1947 when the concerned nations attained their
independence from the British rule for the possession of a territory.
 The British Government for the partition of the India and Pakistan did not take into
account the elements of religion, culture and others and both of these nations were
arbitrarily partitioned as per the precepts of Mountbatten’s Plan
 These attributes were also not taken into account for the partition of Arab and Jewish
states
 Both of these conflicts began for the possession of a particular territory or a piece of land
however over the years it had attained religious and political connotations
 UN, the UK government and the national governments of the other first world nations of
world have taken the help of different peaceful negotiations, diplomatic discussions and
others for the resolution of these two issues yet they have failed to resolve them

 The nations involved in these conflicts share a bloody history which is dominated by
various violent crimes, massacres, riots and others
 The complexity of the crises or the conflicts under discussion here also becomes apparent
from the fact that there are no visible solutions in sight for the effective mitigation or the
resolution of the Indo-Pak wars and the Arab-Israeli wars
 The wars or the conflicts which these nations had been indulged in had also led to the
situation wherein it is seen that they have failed to develop any trade relation or other
kinds of relations with each which once again had taken a toll on their growth or
development.
