What does this tell you about the Hindu right-wing in the Bay Area?
Despite the Great American Awakening, which includes Americans denouncing the war with Iran and Trump voters moving away from him, Hindutva continues to support Israel. Quite vehemently.
And we can witness this in the political landscape of the East Bay.
Let me establish the basic connection for readers to understand this post. Literally every politician endorsed by American 4 Hindus PAC is a Zionist.
Hindutva is not based on Hinduism but on Hinduphobia (a deluded idea endorsed in India, a country with 80% Hindus), anti-Muslim, anti-Christian, and anti-Sikh hate, with anti-Muslim hate being their favorite. The BJP championed the hate strategy to be voted to power for 12 years now.
In the US, Hindutva found another brother with the same hate - Zionism. (the image says all but do continue reading below) https://jweekly.com/2026/08/03/inside-the-bay-areas-growing-jewish-hindu-alliance/


The Palestinian genocide in Gaza led to the Great American Awakening (that is what I like to call America's rise against Zionism and its influence on American politics). The awakening is so energetic that AIPAC-affiliated funding and condemning the genocide has become a litmus test during elections across America. And it is working because a bunch of AIPAC-funded, pro-Israel, well-known candidates have lost their seats to fairly new politicians.
Since Hindutva is governing India, India has been supporting Israel militarily and diplomatically. This is drastically different from India's decades-old stance that it stands by the Palestinian cause because it can relate to the injustices of colonization and apartheid.
Hate unites Hindutva and Zionism.
What is interesting to note is that the right wing's political campaigns in India have focused solely on Hindutva and communal hate, not policies or deliverables. The result is the drastic deterioration of India's economy and society.
Zionist politicians are doing that to America. Americans have been questioning the billions of dollars our administration is spending on wars that serve Israel's interests while Americans struggle with healthcare, infrastructure, and inflation.
Hindutva and Zionism are ideologies that are deeply rooted in hate, self-glory, and violence. Neither group cares about the welfare of the people. Right-wing Hindutva voters in the US will either vote for Hindutva-aligned politicians or pro-Israel politicians, irrespective of policies and competence.
