We explore the civilizational parallels between Judaism and Hinduism, Israel’s sense of national identity, and what India can realistically learn from Israel in terms of security, resilience, and statecraft. The discussion then moves into hard questions: Why hasn’t Israel been able to eliminate Hamas? What’s actually happening in Gaza? Is Israel committing a genocide—or is the narrative being distorted? We also touch upon the future of Israel–Iran relations, the role of global narratives in modern warfare, and conclude with advice for India’s PMO from a diplomat who has seen conflict up close.

A senior research fellow at IPCS, he’s known for cutting through comfortable narratives and explaining power as it actually works—across defense economics, military technology, nuclear strategy, and global geopolitics. In this episode of Dostcast, we go far beyond headlines. Why is the US suddenly interested in Greenland—and what does it signal about the future of global power? What’s really driving Gen Z protests across Western democracies, and how organic are these movements? Why is Donald Trump economically and strategically tightening the screws on the European Union? And beneath all of this lies an unsettling question: in today’s world, do billionaires and corporations influence governments more than voters do? We also dive deep into the evolution of modern warfare—how power is exercised without tanks or missiles, how narratives replace bullets, and why the next decade of global conflict will look nothing like the last. This isn’t a debate. It isn’t ideological comfort food. It’s a clear-eyed breakdown of how the world actually functions. If you care about geopolitics, power, and the forces shaping the next 10 years—this episode is unmissable.
