Ass-kissing nuclear power

India’s entry to the nuclear club gives me bragging rights. However, it’s a classic case of how we are still slaves to the Western (US, largely) perspective. When I ask the average person whether s/he is comfortable with Iran’s nuke programme, the answer is no. So why should anyone be comfy with India’s? Because we are more non-violent than the Iranians? Bull shit. It’s because we have been kneaded and brainwashed into being a Western lackey. Our new nuke status should have tremendous civilian benefits. But make no mistake. We kissed ass to get it. The Iranians have not.
