American deep state and Kashmiri Brahmans


K N Pandita


On September 1, the World News reported that President Trump's Trade Advisor, Peter Navarro, doubled down on his accusation that India is profiting from the Russia-Ukraine war by buying Moscow's oil at a discount, refining it, and selling it to buyers in Europe and elsewhere. In an interview with Fox News, Navarro dubbed New Delhi a "laundromat for the Kremlin" and slammed the country's elite for profiteering "at the expense of the Indian people."
Trump's trade czar claimed India didn't buy much oil from Russia before its full-scale assault on Ukraine, but now it was fuelling "the Russian war machine." "India is nothing but a laundromat for the Kremlin...You got Brahmins profiteering at the expense of the Indian people. We need that to stop," Navarro said, alleging that Indian refiners were buying discounted Russian crude, processing it, and exporting it at a premium.
"It kills Ukrainians...And what do we have to do as taxpayers? We've got to send them more money," he said. He also tried to defend Team Trump's punitive tariffs on Indian exports and claimed New Delhi's ties with Moscow and Beijing were undermining global stability. "[PM] Modi's a great leader...I don't understand why he's getting to bed with [Vladimir] Putin and Xi Jinping, when he's the biggest democracy in the world," Navarro said.


The American deep state's open rant is understandable. India's Operation Sindoor exposed the US' nuclear outreach to Pakistan, with emphasis on Noor Khan, Kerana Hills and Sargodha nuclear assets with specific American interests.
Moreover, the Reuters of October 3 quoted Indian Air Force Chief, Amar Preet Singh, saying "India downed five Pakistani fighter jets of the F-16 and JF-17 class.” China ate the humble pie, but Trump reacted as a wounded bear. The much-hyped F-16 machine lost its sheen with prospective buyers. Operation Sindoor revealed to the entire world how the US was using Pakistan for its strategic designs against Russia, China, Iran and India. This is what the 53-member Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) needs to understand if it honestly wants to defend the interests of the ummah.


Trump and his cronies, together with the deep state, have targeted India for an action that undermines the power and might of the US. A developing country until recently, India dares to challenge the world's number one superpower, is what disturbs the sleep of Advisor Peter Navarro,
Because they mean to denigrate India and simultaneously boost Pakistan’s stock with the US, all to the harassment of India, evidently, they attacked not only the economic status of India but also tried to cause fissures in India's social structure. Trump’s Trade Advisor, Peter Navarro’s comment --- You got Brahmins profiteering at the expense of the Indian people --- reflects the diseased mindset of people dismally ignorant of India’s contemporary history as long as he remains glued to the lies and canards of colonial sociologists. The following anecdote, borrowed from The Times of India of April 10, 2013, gives a glimpse into the sickly mindset of the American deep state about India’s socio-political history.


Under the New Delhi date line, the Times of India wrote: “When distinguished diplomat T N Kaul was named the new ambassador to the US by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in 1973, then US ambassador to India wrote a stinging assessment of the 'sly' nature of Kaul, according to latest US cables available from Wikileaks. In his cable, sent on March 17, 1973, US ambassador Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote, "Kaul, like the Nehru family, is a Kashmiri Brahmin, self-assured to the point of arrogance by birth. His career, most notably as ambassador to Moscow and more recently as foreign secretary, has been marked by pro- Soviet bias and concomitant anti-American words and deeds."


“However, Kaul is also a sensitive weathervane of Indian foreign policy, enjoying Gandhi's confidence while foreign secretary. Thus, he will seek to improve relations with the United States, if that is GOI policy, and will criticise our actions, if so instructed," he said in an otherwise negative assessment of the newly-appointed ambassador, who was to help improve the Indo-US ties that had gone into a tailspin during the 1971 war. "Hopefully, his sense of mission will overcome or mitigate his Brahmanical disdain for "materialistic" American and his previous Moscow orientation," Moynihan said. "I have not yet met him, but all here agree he is inclined toward slyness, especially in his dealings with westerners. This latter quality is not only Kashmiri Brahminical arrogance, but it also reflects Kaul's propensity for misconstruing cleverness for sophistication in diplomatic dealings. As the British say, he is "too clever by half", a characteristic which many Western chiefs of mission in New Delhi have found distasteful and trying.


In a comment, the AI of Wikipedia on the above entry yielded the substance of an earlier Twitter. It runs as this: “The US ambassador said one NATO ambassador, upon hearing of Kaul's appointment, seized an embassy officer by the lapels and suggested the United States could not possibly extend agreement to Kaul. He alluded to Kaul's pro-Soviet orientation and his frequent anti-American comments. He quoted former US ambassador to Russia Foy Kohler as saying about Kaul: "Not ideologically pro-Soviet as such, but rather a slick, ambitious opportunist who, having attained status as a specialist on communist affairs, has hitched his wagon to the star of improved Indo-Soviet relations."
These anecdotes show how the venom of hatred and disdain is injected into the blood of Western diplomats against the Brahmanical class of Indian society. Trump and his Trade Advisor both have taken up the thread of the anti-Brahminic spat where their forebears had left it.

The real story behind this anecdote is a matter of great consequence to our nation. The recent nation-wide stir of the opposition for caste identification of the Indians is closely linked to the deep state’s theory of changing the regime in India.
