This refers to invitation by Prez Trump to Indian PM Modi to make India a member of “Board of Peace” (in which TRump is its Chairman not as POTUS but in his personal capacity) to oversea peace in Gaza as reported at https://indianexpress.com/article/india/us-president-trump-invites-pm-modi-part-of-board-of-peace-for-gaza-10481630/ . India would be tempted to become an ordinary member (though may not be a permanent member as India may not like or find it difficult to give $ 1.0 Billion as Indian Parliament may not approve such prohibitively huge amount of Rs 90.0 billion to be given for the permanent membership of the said Board) because India would not like to invite the wrath of Prez Trump in case India refuses to become a member of the said board (because wrath of Prez Trump would highly likely harm India not only through increased tariffs & unfavourable or no trade deal but on other matters too related to India's foreign policy). But it would certainly not be liked by over 200 million Muslims of India (if India becomes a member of the said ‘Board of peace’without any Palestine solution in sight) and ruling Hindutva forces ought to know that it may create other problems than electoral for the BJP government led by PM Modi ). India has always supported the solution to chronic Palestine problems as per justice and justice can be done to Palestinians only if as per “Right to return” a one State solution” is achieved where both (Jews and Palestinians) would live in one Secular democratic State of Israel-Palestine as generally mentioned by my at https://www.pakistanchristianpost.com/opinion-details/4534What Prez TRump has written in this invitation to PM Modi doesn’t give any indication that Prez Trump wants any solution to the chronic Palestine problem which has caused huge loss of life & blood (including of women, children and old peopleI), honor of women properties etc of Palestinians. On the contrary it seems Prez Trump (i)- Wants to establish a new global order (as mentioned at https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01-20/what-is-donald-trump-s-board-of-peace/106247750 ) which has become necessary as old global order of the UN is already demolished mainly due to the Ukraine war but what Prez Trump is suggesting is merely a caricature of a new rule based global order and not an effective one as suggested by me at https://www.pakistanchristianpost.com/opinion-details/4711 and (ii)- Wants peace in Gaza so that he may materialize his dream of making ‘Riviera’ in Gaza as reported at https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/05/politics/trump-gaza-takeover-analysisTherefore India should become a member (even non-permanent member) of “Board of Peace” only if Prez TRump officially promises time bound “One-State-solution” for chronic Palestine problem.
