India is Israel's biggest ally in Asia. Says a lot when Israel is spying on India.

Isreal is not spying on india. Indian government brought spyware software(Pegasus) from israel and is using it to spy on journalists and opposition parties. Allegedly of course.

They probably are spying on India. They've been caught spying on the US several times, and even sold American military secrets to China.

Ah okay. I'm not surprised Israel makes tech that can be used to spy on others. That bastion of free speech and democracy.

An Israeli company makes it, not Israel.

If you think that democracies do not spy on other countries, I’m not sure what to tell you.

An Israeli company makes it because there is a need for the tech. I wonder by whom.

Certainly India. And literally every other sovereign state that spy on literally every other sovereign state.

They are spying on journalists, not on other sovereign states.

In their case, they’re spying on journalists also. That’s not the only spying they’re doing.

LoL, your attempt to shit on Israel misfired and your recovery is weak but your efforts are noticed.

They bought it from an Israeli company. The company isn’t Israel the state.
