Netanyahu's trip to India highlights tiny Jewish community
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to become the second Israeli premier since Ariel Sharon to visit India in a trip this week that India's tiny and shrinking Jewish community hopes will boost its profile.
Netanyahu will talk trade in New Delhi and marvel at the Taj Mahal before rounding off his visit in Mumbai, where the majority of India's estimated 4,500 Jews live.
There he will visit a Jewish centre targeted in the 2008 Mumbai attacks, and accompany 11-year-old Moshe Holtzberg as the boy returns for the first time to the house where his parents were killed in the 26/11 terror attacks that left 166 people dead.
