Yes. That's trade. It's true for most international relationships.

You don’t get to have your cake and eat it too. China and India don’t have an ideological relationship with Israel. So Israel is never going to “diversify” (your words) their relationship to the point that China is shooting down cruise missiles flying over Tel Aviv on their behalf.
America is a perfect ally to Israel. I’m not arguing they’ll replace us 1:1. Just more than adequately, certainly enough to maintain a regional hegemony if not fight for it anew.

Right-wing Indians and Israelis actually have quite a bit in common. I don’t think it’s enough to sustain a long-term alliance. And New Delhi is no Washington. (It’s also a buyer of Iranian oil.)
But there are outright exterminationist wings in both countries, and their enemies share the same faith.
