How different viewpoints frame this

Progressive

The strikes represent Western aggression against a Global South nation; invitations to opposition figures signal Iran's attempt to maintain pluralistic ties outside BJP's Israel alignment.

“Unilateral aggression and diplomatic outreach to counter hegemony”

Conservative

Invitations to Congress leaders reflect Tehran's effort to undermine Modi's alignment with Israel and the West; attendance risks legitimizing a terrorism-sponsoring regime.

“Regime exploitation of domestic divides and dangers of legitimization”

Libertarian

Invitations illustrate authoritarian spectacle to legitimize a theocratic regime that suppresses individual liberties; state funeral attendance risks normalizing concentrated power.

“Suppression of rights and risks of state ritual”

Devil's Advocate

All three views overstate the calculated nature of opposition invitations and under-examine India's concrete commercial interests and the disputed timeline.

“Overlooked strategic interests and succession politics”
